Jakarta (Antara Bali) - Forty-five prostitutes have escaped from Karya Wanita Mulya Pasar Rebo, a rehabilitation facility in East Jakarta, according to a security official.
"The prostitutes, assisted by about 30 people, fled on Sunday by damaging the institution's gates," rehabilitation officer Emil Salamun said here on Monday.
The incident unfolded after two visitors arrived at the rehabilitation centre at 7.15 am, wishing to see one of the prostitutes. The rehabilitation officials did not give permission because it was outside visiting hours.
Then, the two visitors had an argument with the security guards and started forcing their way into the aftercare centre. Amid the scuffle, about 30 more people forcefully entered the premises of the facility.
"A group of 30 people suddenly came as if they wanted to attack us," Emil said.
The security guards tried to block their entry and a fracas ensued. The perpetrators then locked up the guards and let the prostitutes out.(IGT)
