T
wo escaped foreign inmates have been taken back to Bali on Saturday after they were arrested in Dili, East Timor, two days ago.
Bali Police Insp. Gen. Petrus Reinhard Golose and his team picked up Sayed Muhammad Said, an Indian national, and Bulgarian citizen Dimitar Nikolov Iliev, from East Timor by charter flight. They and two other foreign prisoners escaped from Kerobokan Penitentiary in Bali early on June 19.
"We will interrogate them to find out whether there were other parties involved in the escape and how they got out of Indonesia," Petrus said.
Petrus said the interrogation would also focus on finding the other two inmates who are still on the run.
The two escaped inmates still at large are Australian Shaun Edward Davidson and Malaysian Tee Kok King.
