KUANTAN, Sept 25 -- The female detainee who escaped from police custody at the Raub Court compound, located about 165 kilometres from here on Sept 14, has been rearrested at a house in Kampung Gali yesterday.

Raub district police chief Supt Kama Azural Mohamed said the 20-year-old woman aged 23, was detained at 9 pm raid along with her boyfriend, 22, believed to have helped the woman escape.

“The motorcycle used during the incident was also found in the raid,” he said in a statement here, today.
