Ganito

Ganito, whose real name is Ilyas Kherbouch, is a 21-year-old man who recently escaped from Villepinte prison. He was serving multiple sentences for aggravated theft and was also being held in pre-trial detention as a suspect in two other cases. His escape on March 7th involved accomplices impersonating police officers. Ganito is newsworthy because he was recently apprehended on his 21st birthday after a brief period on the run. He was arrested in the company of a 25-year-old woman with whom he had spent several days in Belgium and the Netherlands. The woman claims she was forced to accompany him, alleging she was beaten and threatened with a knife. In contrast, Ganito described the time as "the ten best days of his life." His escape and subsequent arrest have garnered media attention, highlighting issues of prison security and the circumstances surrounding his time on the run.
