Suspected Nigerian Human Trafficker Commits Suicide In Italian Prison
LAGOS SEPTEMBER 19TH (NEWSRANGERS0-A notorious Nigerian human trafficker, John Ogais “Rambo” accused of torturing and k!lling migrants has committed suicide in an Italian prison.
According to local media, Ogais took his life after attacking and injuring four prison wardens on Monday, September 16, 2024.
Ogais was arrested in 2017 on charges of belonging to a gang that trafficked migrants from Libya to Italy and tortured, r@ped and m$rdered them.
Police arrested Ogais at the sprawling Cara ‘Santa’Anna’ shelter in the coastal town of Isola Capo Rizzuto in Calabria after he was identified by migrants who arrived on Italy’s southern Lampedusa island.
Several migrants told police they were told at the camp where they were held in Libya that Ogais who called himself ‘Rambo’ had beaten two Nigerian migrants to d£ath.
One of the migrants, a minor, was killed in front of his brother, who was forced to watch the m8rder while Ogais threatened him with a loaded pistol, according to witnesses.
“I know that my cousin and others tried to escape and that they were caught and subsequently d!ed from the torture meted out to them,” one of the migrants on Lampedusa was quoted as telling police.
Ogais and other traffickers tortured migrants in “countless” ways including with electric shocks and beatings on various parts of their bodies with rubber tubes.
