The ?Devil? Gets His Due: Elephant Poaching Kingpin Arrested - Yahoo News
Tanzanian officials have arrested a poacher and smuggler whom they say is responsible for thousands of elephant deaths across several African nations. Boniface Matthew Mariango—nicknamed “Shetani,” or the “Devil”—was arrested on Oct. 29 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, after evading authorities for more than a year. According to Tanzania’s National and Transnational Serious Crimes Investigation Unit Task Force, Mariango allegedly managed up to 15 criminal poaching and ivory smuggling syndicates. He is accused of operating in Burundi, Zambia, Mozambique, and southern Kenya for several years. Information from an informant is said to have led to his arrest.
