Frabrizio Joao Silva Ribeiro, one of the most dangerous prisoners in Spanish prisons, known as Hannibal Lecter , has been found dead in his prison cell in A Lama (Pontevedra), prison sources have informed Efe.

Given his danger, this inmate, a native of Guinea Bissau, was alone in a gallery , where only he occupied one of the cells and in isolation.

Convicted for murdering his wife and for killing another prisoner in prison , Silva was pending a cause for a brutal assault on officials at the Puerto 3 prison in El Puerto de Santa María (Cádiz).

An event the latter whose images were broadcast by some television network and in which the aggressiveness of the inmate was appreciated.

Silva went through different prisons, as is usually done with these types of dangerous prisoners due to the incidents they star , and since January he was admitted to A Lama.

Not long ago he sent a letter to the jail address to warn that he would disobey the officials and eight days ago he began a hunger strike that he had abandoned today.

The sources have stated that Silva was controlled by medical services, which did not detect any health problems, and this morning his weight reflected 107 kilos.

In the absence of the autopsy, no evidence of possible suicide has been observed.

The prisoner has appeared dead in the bathroom of the cell , on the floor and with a wound in the face, apparently due to the blow when falling.

Until 2047 he would not have left prison.
