A Chinese drug trafficker on death row has escaped from a jail after digging a 30-metre (100 feet) tunnel from his cell in Indonesia.

Cai Changpan, sentenced to death in 2017 for trafficking 110 kilogrammes (230 pounds) of methamphetamine, broke out of Tangerang prison in Banten last week via the narrow tunnel, which connected to a sewer, Police said.

CCTV footage captured the moment Cai escaped through the narrow tunnel to an unknown location.

Authorities said they recovered a crowbar, chisel, screwdriver, and other tools used to dig the hole, which they believe he got from building work being done on a prison kitchen.

It was also revealed that the 37-year-old, who also used the name Cai Ji Fan spoke with his other cellmate to join him, but he declined.

'This is the second time he escaped,' said Tangerang police's chief Sugeng Hariyanto, adding he also managed to get out of the National Police Criminal Investigation Department cells in Jakarta while on remand. 

Cai's first escape was in January 2017 via a hole he made in a bathroom wall using an iron rod. He escaped with other prisoners by climbing a 2.5-metre (eight-feet) wall, but was recaptured in West Java three days later.
