Afghan officials say troops have recaptured 71 of the 488 inmates who escaped from Sarposa prison in southern Kandahar province on Sunday through a 300-meter-long tunnel. Security has been tightened along Afghanistan’s border with Pakistan and officials say biometric data on each prisoner will help identify and capture the remaining inmates, most of them Taliban militants.Afghanistan's Justice Minister Abibullah Ghalab acknowledged that the jailbreak must have involved inside collaborators but he added that Afghan and international forces should have detected the plot. The Taliban claimed responsibility.
