PRISON escapee John Bongani Jobe (41) who was on the run from police for three years, pleaded guilty in the Richards Bay Magistrate’s Court to a charge of escaping from custody and was sentenced to four years imprisonment.
Jobe, a previous offender, is implicated in high priority crimes in towns across Zululand.
He was one of six suspects who escaped from police custody during a jail break at Richards Bay Police Station holding cells in October 2011.
He had fled across the border.
Police tracked him down in the Sundumbili area last month.
