A third escapee from Waainek Correctional Centre in Makhanda was rearrested on Sunday evening while the hunt for the remaining four escapees still on the run continues.

The third of the seven criminals who escaped from Makhanda's Waainek Prison last Tuesday was arrested about 30km from the prison while begging for food in a close-knit farming community on Sunday. 



It took less than an hour from the time a stranger asked for food for him to be identified as one of the seven men who escaped from Waainek Correctional Facility in Makhanda and rearrested. Trymore Chauke was arrested at Seven Fountains around 7pm on Sunday 23 October.

Police have rearrested another of the convicted rhino poachers who escaped from the Waainek Correctional Facility in Makhanda last Monday.
