Though the three escaped after breaking the wall, they left two other suspects who claimed that they did not hear their colleagues escape the cells.
"There were a total of five suspects in the same cells and the remaining two reported that they did not hear their colleagues escape. The night duty officer CPL Carmax Okello did not notice the escape," the police report added.
