BEIRUT — Five inmates escaped a high-security Lebanese prison Saturday by scaling down the building’s walls with bed sheets before mixing with visiting relatives and walking out of the compound with them, the interior minister said.
The minister, Marwan Charbel, blamed the escape from the Roumeih prison east of Beirut on “the pure negligence” of the guards and demanded that officers who were in charge when the jail break took place be punished.
