Police Commissioner, Egon Keil, confirmed this.
“We are still looking for that guy, there’s not much to say about the matter except we are still looking for him,” he said.
“The prison officers and my guys are still looking for him… there is no luck yet in finding him.”
Asked if the police had already been to Mr. Chong Nee’s family, the Police Commissioner said yes.
“We have already been to his house and family and I’m sure that the Prison Authority has already been there too and we are working together with the family to find him.”
According to the Assistant Commissioner of Prison and Correction Services, Ulugia Niuia Aumua, they had already gone to Mr. Chong Nee’s family.
“At the moment we have got many leads from members of the public and when we arrive it’s either it wasn’t true or it’s not him,” said Ulugia. “We have already gone to the family so many times but they don’t know of his whereabouts so we are working together with the police on this matter.”
There were concerns Mr. Chong Nee could have fled the country.
“That’s something that we are looking into and if the authority and immigration are not careful that might happen but at the moment we are still doing all that we can to find this escapee and make sure that he does not leave the country.”
Pati Chong Nee escaped from prison in April this year and he was in jail for robbery, burglary and theft.
He is 23 years old and from the villages of Tafa’igata and Aleisa.
