Six prisoners escaped from Dundee Prison on Saturday evening, October 31, at approximately 8.30pm.
In a statement released by the KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Department of Correctional Services, the prisoners made their daring escape by cutting a hole in the ceiling and roof of a cell before climbing out.
The men then used a piece of clothing to jump over a five meter high razor fence.
One of the men was rearrested shortly afterwards.
However, the remaining five escapees are still at large and are considered dangerous.
