Rapper Koba LaD Linked to Jailbreak

Published: 2025-03-24

French authorities have arrested 24 more individuals, including rapper Koba LaD, in connection with the dramatic 2024 jailbreak of drug trafficker Mohamed Amra, also known as "La Mouche.

" The escape, which involved a violent attack on a prison van, left two guards dead and three injured.

Investigators suspect Koba LaD, who once shared a cell with Amra, of ties to the Black Manjack Family, a music label allegedly involved in criminal activities.

This marks the fourth wave of arrests in the case, bringing the total number of suspects to 28. Amra, captured in Romania earlier this year, is now held in a high-security French prison.

Authorities continue to probe the extensive network behind the jailbreak and subsequent nine-month manhunt.
