Security forces continued to comb Singapore on Saturday for a suspected terrorist leader after he escaped last week from a high security prison.

Mas Selamat is accused of plotting to hijack a plane and crash it into Singapore's international airport. The Singapore government said he escaped Wednesday because of a "security lapse" at the high security detention center.

Dozens of community leaders, including members of Parliament, fanned out to distribute posters of the fugitive to the public.

Security breaches are virtually unheard of in Singapore. Among its security services' biggest successes were pre-empting alleged plots to bomb the US Embassy, the American Club and government buildings in 2001—schemes in which Mas Selamat allegedly had a hand.
