He managed to escape from a maximum security prison through a mile-long tunnel last summer.
Embarrassed officials said the tunnel opened into the shower block.
They found a ladder down a 2ft by 2ft wide, 30ft metre deep hole that led to the tunnel.
A lot of work went into the tunnel which was about 5ft 7ins meters high and 2ft 7ins wide and opened up at a building site a mile from Altiplano Federal Prison.
