Belgium: Police fear for the life of prisoner escape accomplice


The Belgian police thinks that the woman who helped free three criminals from the Bruges prison two weeks ago might not be alive anymore. They fear that the threesome got rid of the 23 year old Lesley Deckers, anonymous police sources told Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws Friday.

Two of the three escaped criminals have been arrested, including Lesley Decker's boyfriend. The third is still on the run, but the police got a lot of tips about him. On Lesley they haven't received even one tip.

The three escaped the Bruges prison using a helicopter rented by the woman. They spent some time in a hotel in Amsterdam, from which they went to commit bank robberies in Belgium. On of the three was arrested in Brussels on Monday, the second was arrested in Morocco on Thursday.
