Henri Haiti, Carnibal Killer Of German Adventurer,Gives Himself Up
The suspected cannibal killer of a German adventurer Stefan Ramin whose bones and teeth were found in the ashes of a fire on a South Sea island has given himself up.
After a 50-day dragnet for Henri Haiti, 31, he turned up at his father’s home and told him to call the authorities.
‘My son is at home, he wants to surrender,’ his father said in a phone call to police.
Officers, joined by soldiers, found traces of makeshift camps in the island forests during his time on the run, but he always stayed one step ahead of them.
They found several buildings which he broke into to steal food.
‘In the end, the pressure of the hunt was too much for him,’ said Jose Thorel, the local prosecutor.
