Police held in Boodram hunt

Two police constables are in custody as the hunt for prison escapee Vicky Boodram`continues.

Boodram was collected from the Women's Prison at Golden Grove on Monday night by two policemen on the pretext that she was being taken to "night court," which does not exist.

A former travel agent, Boodram is on on remand on over 100 charges of fraud.

A release issued by the police early this morning said one of the constables was held for questioning last night and the other detained earlier yesterday.

The National Security Ministry said yesterday that borders have been closed in an attempt to stop her leaving the country and a manhunt was launched.
