Johannesburg - Nine prisoners have escaped from the Qalakabusha Prison at Empangeni in KwaZulu-Natal, say police.

Spokesperson Phindile Radebe said on Sunday the prisoners escaped from the prison yard after cutting through a fence.

She was uncertain when the prisoners had escaped.

They were serving life sentences for murder, armed robbery and other crimes.

Radebe said the Richards Bay organised crime unit was investigating.
