ALOR SETAR: A riot at an immigration detention centre in Relau, Bandar Baharu in Kedah in the wee hours of Wednesday (April 20) morning resulted in a massive prison break that saw about 500 detainees fleeing.
Six of them were killed after they were hit by a car when they were trying to cross a road in a bid to escape. While most of the escapees have been recaptured, 165 of them are still on the loose as of the time of writing.
Below is a series of videos of the incident found on the Penang Is My Hometown Facebook page.
