Greek police have launched a nationwide manhunt after two convicts described as being “particularly dangerous” escaped from Avlona Prison, north of the capital, on Monday night.
One of the two convicts, who are both Albanian nationals, has been implicated in the recent murder of a 33-year-old inmate at the capital’s high-security Korydallos Prison.
According to reports, the 22-year-old convict had been held at Korydallos before being transferred recently to Avlona, where security is less tight, in order to attend classes.
