24 Arrested in Connection with Mohamed Amra’s Violent Escape, Including Rapper Koba LaD

The arrests mark a significant development in the investigation into the May 2024 prison break orchestrated by the Black Manjak Family, which left two guards dead and enabled a nine-month evasion.

• French authorities have arrested 24 individuals, including rapper Koba LaD, as part of the fourth wave of investigations into Mohamed Amra’s escape and evasion.
• The May 2024 escape involved a commando attack on a prison transport vehicle, killing two guards and injuring three others at a toll station in Incarville, Eure.
• The Black Manjak Family, a criminal organization linked to narcotrafficking, is suspected of orchestrating the escape and providing support during Amra’s nine-month evasion.
• Koba LaD, already serving time for other offenses, is under investigation for allegedly aiding Amra during his evasion and maintaining connections to the Black Manjak Family.
• Since Amra’s arrest in Romania in February 2025, a total of 28 individuals have been indicted for their roles in the escape and subsequent evasion.
