MEMBERS of the joint services are now searching interior locations as the manhunt continues to recapture two convicted prisoners, who escaped from the Lusignan Prison facility on September 20, 2016. The two men have been identified as 22-year-old Rajendra Deonarine, of Richmond Housing Scheme, Essequibo, and 26-year-old Fauouse Shakir, of La Ressouvenir, East Coast Demerara.

They are said to have used the Lusignan Golf Course as their route of escape. Once recaptured, the two convicts will face charges of escaping lawful custody.
Deonarine was serving a two-year sentence for possession of cocaine and Shakir was serving a three-year sentence for break and enter and larceny. Prison officials noted that teams comprising joint service ranks have since searched many areas the men may have friends and relatives residing.
