Description
“Escape from Pretoria is the astounding tale of how Jenkin and two
other prisoners planned their escape, made their own duplicate keys,
and managed to make their way through the ten locked doors to
freedom.
“At around 7 pm we both unlocked our inner doors with the number
on keys we had earlier concealed in our cell.s Alex unlocked his outer
door using the crank mechanism, after I had signalled to him with a
towel that I could hear no sounds from Vermeulen’s direction. After
emerging from his cell, Alex reolocked his number two door, turning
it once only, and tiptoed down to my cell to unlock my outer door
… The door swung open a little and a bright shaft of light entered
the cupboard. He’s seen us, we both thought, but Alex managed to
regain his grip and pulled the door closed just as Vermeulen would
have come into view of it.””
