Bosnian Muradif Hasanbegovic, 36, was serving a seven-year sentence for robbery in the Karlau prison, near Graz, Austria. He wrapped himself inside a very large box and mailed himself out of jail.
Hasanbegovic worked in the prison where he packaged lampost parts. Other convicts helped put him on the mail truck and, once the truck was clear from the prison, he jumped out of the box and ran away. The driver noticed this just as the prison called and asked, “Have you noticed anything funny? We are kind of missing a prisoner.”
Prison warden Franz Hochstrasser said: “This sort of thing was not supposed to happen. Guards need to count prisoners at the end of working hours. We are investigating the case.”
Hasanbegovic is still on the run.
