MONROVIA: More than 200 prisoners escaped from Liberia’’s highest security prison in the heart of the capital Monrovia Monday, after overcoming guards by pelting stones and other objects, police said. The UN mission in the West-African country, UNMIL, deployed troops at the South Beach jail after the breakout but only some 30 prisoners were apprehended, a police official said. The discontented prisoners were spurred among other things by a tuberculosis outbreak in the overcrowded penitentiary. Liberia was ravaged by back-to-back civil wars between 1989-2003.
