Police in Samoa are investigating how four escapees managed to break the locks of one of the security cells in Tafaigata prison.
The men escaped a week ago and two remain on the run.
Security at the prison has been a problem.
RNZI reports there has been a history of escape prisoners from the main Tafaigata prison.
From the time when the prison was under the authority of the Ministry of Police, there was always cases of prisoners escape.
There is no fence surrounding the whole compound for the main prison.
The assistant commissioner of prisons Ulugia Sauafea Niui'a said they would be working together with the police on the case.
