"Only, 46 are in contact, all others are on the run," jailor Om Prakash Subedi told Myrepublica, "Police have been fanned out for arrest."
Four Pakistani inmates reported to the District Police Office after the quake. Subedi said those on the lam will be charged with an addition case for fleeing.
Those out of contact were doing time for murder, human trafficking, drugs and gold smuggling among other heinous crimes.
