Black Jesus the 'Cannibal killer' breaks out of jail with 40 others

A convicted rapist and cult leader known as Black Jesus, who was accused of murdering three girls and then eating their flesh and drinking their blood, has escaped from jail with 48 other prisoners.

A huge manhunt is underway in Papua New Guinea's jungles for Stephen Tari and the other inmates, who broke out of prison in Madang in the north of the country while a guard changed shift.
Police have warned that some of the escapees are very dangerous and stressed officers are working 'around the clock' to catch them.

Tari, 40, a failed Bible class student, called himself Black Jesus as he travelled through the highland jungles in 2006, gathering thousands of disciples who moved with him, following his instructions to increase his 'flock'.

But he was also accused of raping three young girls, murdering them and then drinking their blood and eating their flesh.

Villagers eventually captured him in March 2007, beat him into unconsciousness, tied him up and handed him over to police.
