Mohamed Amra, a notorious narcotrafficker, orchestrated a daring escape on May 14, 2024, during a prison transfer in Normandy.
A heavily armed commando ambushed the transport, killing two guards and injuring three others.
After nine months on the run, Amra was captured in Romania and extradited to France.
Investigations have led to the arrest of 19 suspects, including key accomplices and logistics personnel who aided his evasion.
Authorities continue to probe his movements during the escape, with further arrests expected.
Amra now faces severe charges, including murder and organized crime involvement, as the case unfolds into a sprawling international investigation.
