Private jail inmates moved

The Corrective Services commissioner, Ron Woodham, has relocated 73 minimum-security prisoners from the privately operated Parklea prison to government-run jails as questions mount over who is responsible for the escape of three inmates this week. The 73, who were moved to Parramatta, Windsor and Silverwater late on Thursday, will remain there until internal structures and perimeter fencing at Parklea's minimum-security wing are upgraded. Raymond Vance Fletcher, Dion Dugal and Ronny Vinaisi waited until night to "break through the ceiling, climb down a pipe and then over the chainwire fence", Mr Woodham said.
