Newsonline reports that Kuje Medium Prison on Tuesday night came under heavy bombardments by unknown terrorists, throwing the entire area Council into confusion.
The first explosion, a high-capacity bomb, went off around 10.25 pm. It was followed by the second and third blasts and sporadic gunshots that left the residents scampering into safety.
A few hours earlier, a security report had alerted the prison officials of possible attacks on the medium prison.
A prison staff, who confirmed the attack in a chat with Daily Sun, explained that the attackers had come from the back of the prison yard.
