Kamiti jail has been in the news recently for all the wrong reasons.
Three dangerous convicted terrorists violated the security and order of the respected prison.
They shattered a block in the cell wall and used blanket ropes to scale the prison’s high walls.
After the people alerted the police officers in the region, they arrested the criminals in Enzo woodland in Kitu county.
The three prisoners were attempting to gain entry to Boni forest in order to make their way to Somalia.

It enraged President Uhuru Kenyatta at the incident and fired the head of prisons, Wycliffe Ogalo, as well as ten other prison warders.
The cops are in custody as they await charges in a criminal court for infractions and assisting terrorists in eluding capture.
