The Police have asked for citizen collaboration to find Yousef Mohamed Lehrech, alias 'El Pastilla', after his notorious escape from the Alcalá Meco prison. To do this, the authorities have spread his image through his Twitter account.
"We are looking for Yousef Mohamed Lehrech, 20 years old, 1.88 tall and nicknamed El Pastilla, who escaped from the Alcalá Meco prison in Madrid. If you have seen him or have information, call 091 or losmasbuscados@policia.es," is the call. of the Police on the social network X (formerly Twitter).
The message is accompanied by two photographs of the escapee, whose escape from prison is being investigated by Penitentiary Institutions to clarify the circumstances of the event.
Yousef Mohamed Lehrech was in that prison provisionally detained for two murders and had been classified as a FIES prisoner (Special Monitoring Inmate File), that is, in the grade of the most dangerous and requiring greater control.
However, according to sources from the group of officials, he was in a youth respect module, where inmates agree to carry out a series of activities and maintain established standards of conduct.
El Faro de Ceuta, the newspaper that first reported the escape, published this Tuesday that El Pastilla was transferred this December from the Algeciras prison (Cádiz) to the Alcalá-Meco prison due to his "incompatibilities" with rival gangs.
The inmate had had a conversation with his family in the parlor on Saturday, on a day with a large influx of visitors given the Christmas season.
"El Pastilla" was in provisional detention in that prison for allegedly murdering one of the considered drug lords of Ceuta, Nayim K.A., nicknamed Tayena, who on April 12 was shot in the chest in Los Barrios (Cádiz ).
Hours after the murder, the Civil Guard arrested El Pastilla in the port of Algeciras as the alleged perpetrator of the crime.
The young man has two open proceedings: one for the death of Tayena, considered his boss, and another for the mistaken murder in Algeciras of a young man whom he supposedly confused with another person.
