(LJ) holy warriors on Tuesday, police sources said.

Under-trial prisoners, Sheikh Muhammad Mumtaz alias Firoon and Muhammad Ahmed Khan alias Muna had beat feet from the judicial complex of Central Prison Karachi on Tuesday in what was described as a daredevil move.

Startling revelations about the incident indicate that the prisoners had escaped on Tuesday by breaking its grill while the jail staff came to know about their escape on Wednesday when they were supposed to be presented before the court inside the jail, officials said.

Gulshan Superintendent of Police (SP) Ghulam Murtaza Bhutto told Dawn that the apprehended jail staff told the police that they had presented both prisoners belonging to LJ before the 'court' located in the judicial complex inside the jail premises on Tuesday but they "escaped" by breaking the grill of the court.

He added that the arrested officers said they had not "realised" that the prisoners had escaped for a whole day, only to find them "missing" on Wednesday when the convicts were to be presented before the court.

The Gulshan SP said the police were further investigating the case.
