This is the escaped convict Sasha D., wanted by the whole of Europe (PHOTO)

A 35-year-old Serbian national, Saša D., escaped from a prison in Duisburg, Germany, according to the Ministry of Justice for the Northern Rhine-Westphalia region. The escape involved cutting through metal bars using a crowbar, which he obtained by dismantling furniture inside his cell. Authorities are investigating how he acquired the tools and why security measures failed to detect hidden compartments in the cell. The incident has sparked political backlash, with legal expert Werner Pfeil criticizing the state minister for justice, Benjamin Limbach, for failing to ensure prison safety after previously claiming the system was secure. The case highlights ongoing concerns about corruption and poor oversight within the regional prison system.
