DSS recaptures actress who escaped from prison after being sentenced to death

Remember Hausa actress, Rabi Ismail, who escaped prison in 2011 after she was
sentenced to death by hanging for hom*cide?

Yes, the DSS have recaptured her!

Daily Nigerian reports that the Intelligence Unit of the
Nigerian Prisons Service in alliance with of men of the
State Security Service, (SSS) made this possible.

Recall that the condemned Hausa film actress
escaped Hadejia Prison on December 16, 2011, after
she was sentenced to death by a High Court in Kano
on January 5, 2005.


Popularly called Rabi Cecilia by her fans, Rabi was
very ruthless. She was very popular and she's said to
know top politicians. She lived at Abedi street of
Sabon Gari, Kano, as a prostitute

She was subsequently held in Kaduna Central Prison
from where she was transferred to Hadejia Prison
from where she escaped about six years ago.

In July 2011, the Supreme Court upheld the sentence
of the lower courts that sentenced her to death by
hanging for killing her boyfriend, Auwalu Ibrahim, to
acquire his property. The court found her guilty for
drugging and drowning Mr Ibrahim in 2002 in Kano.

Before her arrest, Actress Rabi Ismaila, popularly
called Rabi Cecilia by her fans, was said to be very
ruthless. She was very popular and she's said to
know top politicians. She lived at the alleged
notorious Abedi Street of Sabon Gari, Kano, as a
prostitute. The single mother of two was said to have spiritual powers so no one dared say anything bad
about her.

The comptroller general of prisons expressed
appreciation to the assistance rendered by security
agencies particularly the SSS and the police in
arresting the fugitive.

He urged the general public to continue giving
information that will rid the society of outlaws like
the Rabi Ismail. He assured that security measures
have been strengthened to prevent persons in prison
custody from escaping.
