Taulant Toma, 41, is the Albanian who has conquered the pages of Italian media after he managed to escape from one of the prisons in Italy, by sawing through the window bars and using bedsheets to descend from a height.
As of yesterday, every trace of him has been lost, while a vast operation is underway throughout Lombardy.
The fugitive is considered capable of moving quickly, with experience in evading controls and a network of contacts that have not yet been verified.
The prefecture has activated a comprehensive search plan: patrols, checkpoints, searches in fields and industrial areas, as well as internal border controls. The fear is that Taulant is already trying to leave Italy or join criminal groups active in Northern Europe, Italian media report .
He had escaped once in 2013, and did the same thing again 12 years later. Considered a dangerous robber whose sentence ends in 2041, Toma managed to successfully leave his prison cell in Milan, a maximum security prison.
According to what Il Fatto Quotidino has learned, the 41-year-old cut through the bars of his cell and then escaped, taking advantage of the darkness and perhaps a favorable moment during the officers' shift change. The escape appears to be precise, planned and extremely fast.
Born on June 9, 1984, in Albania, Taulant Toma was serving a long sentence for robbery and theft, with a final sentence until 2041. He is no stranger to spectacular escapes: his ability to disappear has already challenged Italian and Belgian law enforcement.
He had previously escaped from Parma prison (also a maximum security facility) with his compatriot Valentin Frokaj, who was later killed by a jeweler during a villa robbery.
Frokaj, on the other hand, had previously escaped from a Palermo prison. Taulant was also the protagonist of a sensational escape to Belgium, where European authorities have considered him a high-risk individual for years.
One episode in his criminal history stands out, causing controversy among Italian prosecutors in 2013. After escaping from a Parma prison, Taulant was a fugitive and wanted. Italian police searched for him for 40 days, conducting surveillance, traveling to other cities, and conducting wiretaps and phone calls. It was only on 23 October 2013 that the Parma prosecutor's office learned that he had been arrested in Belgium on 11 September and was now being held in Liège awaiting extradition. The prosecutor's office itself described this as "paradoxical" and requested clarification from the Ministries of the Interior and Justice.
