Mohamed Amra has been convicted 13 times. He has been on the run since the violent attack on the van which was transporting him and during which two prison officers died. Interpol issued a red notice against him.
Mohamed Amra, the inmate who escaped late Tuesday morning during the fatal attack on a prison van at the Incarville tollbooth in Eure, is still actively sought. On Wednesday May 15, Interpol issued a red notice against him. Born on March 10, 1994 in Rouen (Seine-Maritime), this repeat offender received his first conviction in October 2009, when he was only 15 years old.
His last conviction dates from May 7, again by the Evreux criminal court, to a sentence of 18 months’ imprisonment, for burglary aggravated by another circumstance. The 30-year-old was also in pre-trial detention for more serious offenses of a criminal nature. He has in fact been indicted since January 26, 2022 for attempted assassination and extortion. With the desire to escape at all costs: during his short detention in Evreux, Mohamed Amra tried to saw off the bars of his cell.
