Jailbreak Pact

Jailbreak Pact 7.6

On the evening of January 29, 1990, shortly before the start of Chile's democratic transition, dozens of political prisoners escaped from prison in Santiago, and 24 activists spent 18 months digging a tunnel as they passed the Patriotic Front of Manuel Rodriguez. Using spoons, forks and a screwdriver, they dug more than 80 meters long and hid 55 tons of dirt in prison. Neither the ordinary prisoners in nearby cells, nor the prison guards who guard the prison every day, were aware of the plans of the 49 prisoners-one of the most surprising and spectacular escapes in Chilean criminal history.
