Evans was allegedly plotting his escape with some members of his gang by telephone which he obtained through “suspicious” means.

Recall that the Police Force Headquarters had assured that Evans and other members of his gang would be arraigned in court on completion of investigation.

The source said, “When Evans was in our custody, he tried to escape but we were able to abort all his plans. We discovered that he had access to phones which were hidden in the middle of loaves of bread, eba, semovita and so on.

“He was making calls from these smuggled phones in the middle of the night, making arrangements with some yet to be identified members of his gang to arrange for his escape.
