'We'll be back': Italy prison escapees promise to come back
Two inmates who escaped from a good prison in Rome the other day left guards a good courtesy note, saying they had business to manage but would be back shortly, a newspaper reported Tuesday.
Both cousins, Davad Zukanovic, 40, and Lil Ahmetovic, 46, broke out of Rebibbia prison overnight on June 2 by scaling a wall utilizing a water hose left in a courtyard.
But before they escaped, they left an email in their cell explaining they had personal reasons for having to flee, said the Repubblica daily.
These were driven by "the necessity to protect their children from a nasty business they had got themselves into," the daily said, paraphrasing the contents of the letter.
The inmates specified that only they could make things best suited, as their wives were also both in jail.
At the end of the signed note, Zukanovic and Ahmetovic promised to come back in about 15 days once everything was sorted, the paper stated.
The men were serving sentences until 2029 for non-violent crimes, including fraud and getting stolen goods. -- AFP
