Turkish Demmink Prosecutor Suddenly Dies

Murat Gök (Haber Turk)

According to Turkish newspaper Haber Turk, Public Prosecutor Murat Gök was found dead in his home on April 12. No cause of death was mentioned, but unconfirmed sources report of supposed liver failure.

Since he went in office in 2009, Gök conducted many successful operations including cases of child abuse and for that reason was known as the “Super Prosecutor”.

He also was one of the prosecutors of former Dutch Secretary-General of Justice and known pedophile and child abuser, Joris Demmink, who has been accused of abusing Turkish minors in the 1990s.

Murat Gök was 41 years old and has an 11-year-old daughter with his ex-wife. He was buried on April 13 in Kıranköy, Uşak Province, in the west of Turkey.

Putin blasts the Netherlands over Pedophile Association

Martijn

On the occasion of his visit to the Netherlands on April 8, Russian president Vladimir Putin blasted the country for having an association which promotes pedophilia and defends pedophiles. Putins words came as a response to many critical voices from the Netherlands regarding the alleged restriction of the rights of homosexuals in Russia. Putin denied that Russia is going to restrict these rights. In his own words, Putin “also is the president of the gay”.

In addition to the president’s statement, Russian TV channel 1TV broadcast a documentary by journalists Ivan Blagoi, Kyril Boet Erin and Julia Zagranitshnova earlier this week on the Dutch pedophile association. Following is the translated and supplemented transcript of the documentary (video in Russian language below).

Introduction: “The association Vladimir Putin mentioned is called Martijn. Many members of the association are convicted of sexual crimes against children or have been sentenced for sexual offences. Even in an extremely tolerant country as the Netherlands, the existence of association Martijn concerns many citizens. The association had to cease its activities, but they however may remain free to spread their ideas. Our correspondent investigated the reasons why the pedophile association is able to be this powerful.”

[Russian journalist arrives at the house of the chairman of Martijn in the Dutch town of Hengelo, Overijssel]

“In this house, one hundred kilometers from Amsterdam, lives one of the founders of the association. As we can see, the neighbours don’t have too much sympathy for him: look at the smashed window and the broken doorbell. There is no nameplate on the door and behind the window is a video camera; he must have noticed us already. His name Marthijn Uittenboogaard, he is the chairman and founder of the pedophile association that he named after himself. The association has over 600 members and supports sexual relations between adults and minors, and advocates for the legalization of pedophile and sexual relations between grownups and children. The members don’t feel ashamed to express how much they suffer from the law that forbids them to abuse children.”

[Russian journalist enters the house]

Uittenboogaard: “When they forbid you to scratch, that’s when it starts to itch. It becomes unbearable to the point that your life turns into hell.”

Russian journalist: “Dutch pedophiles have founded a political party for the parliamentary elections. They even have posted videos on the internet in which they propagandize having sex with 12-year-olds, they legalization of soft drugs for children and hard drugs such as heroin for adults. Only under pressure from society, association Martijn had to cease their activities for a while.”

An April 8 messaged at the website of the Dutch Public Prosecutor on the Martijn case says:

The Public Prosecution Service (PPS) does not reconcile itself to the decision of the court of appeal in Arnhem-Leeuwarden in the case against Vereniging Martijn and will therefore lodge an appeal in cassation. On 3 April last, the court of appeal judged that contrary to the PPS’s plea, the appeal of Vereniging Martijn may be allowed and that the decision of the court in Assen on 27 June 2012, must be annulled.

The court of appeal did not follow the PPS’s argument that Vereniging Martijn was not allowed in the case on appeal since, given the judgment of the court in Assen on 27 June 2012, it did not exist anymore.

The court of appeal shares the opinion of the PPS that the association trivializes the danger of sexual contact with young children, justifies such contacts or even idolizes them. And along with the PPS, the court of appeal thinks that this is a serious infringement of the sexual integrity of the child.

Different from the PPS, the court of appeal thinks that this infringement cannot be considered equivalent to social disruption; society is deemed defensible and flexible enough to handle this.

The PPS does not agree with this last consideration and is of the opinion that such an infringement indeed represents or may represent a social disruption. This is important when finding an answer to the question whether an association can be prohibited and dissolved.

Marthijn Uittenboogaard (trouw.nl)Dutch female on-the-street interviewee: “The abuse of children and the destruction of their lives is a nightmare.”

Dutch male on-the-street interviewee: “I do not think there is room for them (pedophiles) in Dutch society.”

Russian journalist: “The Ministry of Justice motivated its decision by referring to freedom of expression, Dutch attorney Adele van der Plas states. (Van der Plas has filed several complaints against former Dutch Secretary-General of Justice and known pedophile, Joris Demmink). In the Netherlands there is a powerful lobby for the abuse of children, also by high-ranking individuals.

Attorney Van der Plas: “My client was in a child brothel where he had to please politicians and members of the government. One of the police officers who investigated the case, said he [also] was one of the witnesses. Joris Demmink is one of the suspects. At the time that permission was obtained to tap phones and to search the accused’s houses, the information of the obtained warrants leaked and the Ministry of Justice erased all traces.”

Russian journalist: “Let’s focus on Joris Demmink, former Secretary-General of the Ministry of Justice. He has more than once been accused of the abuse of minors. Against him are six declarations issued to the police. One of the alleged rape victims is Mustafa. His face [in the documentary] is blurred. He used to talk a lot so they cut his tongue. [Mustafa shows his scarred tongue]. He has no doubt that Demmink is the one who raped him.

“Look at him, he pretends he doesn’t have a clue!” [Mustafa indignantly tears Demminks picture out of a magazine].

Russian journalist: “It concerns events that took place mid 90s in Turkey. We turned to the Dutch Ministry of Justice for an explanation of the allegations against Demmink. They told us that these allegations are baseless because Demmink hasn’t been to Turkey at all in that period.”

Unidentified male interviewee: “Demmink was in Turkey under a different name. During that time, he had three different passports. He was the president of an organization involved in Turkish affairs. Saying as a president of such organization that you have never been to Turkey is like the Russian ambassador to the U.S. saying they have never been in the U.S. It’s just ridiculous. Hacktivist group Anonymous tries to prevent the Dutch pedophile group from continuing their activities. The pedophile case is a national tragedy in the Netherlands.”

Interviewee called Pastor Hendriks: “Here in the Netherlands between 15 and 20% of the population has been abused as a child. These are only minimum figures. Actual figures may be even higher.”

Russian journalist: “Pastor Hendriks is convinced that the problems are far from resolved. Dutch artist Maurice(?) Brinkman agrees with him. The memories of his childhood still horrify him.

Brinkman: “I have been abused during my childhood until I was sixteen. The abuser was the director of a public school and he also ruined the youth of fifty other boys. Three of them have committed suicide. The pedophile spent 1.5 years in prison and then cynically received a job proposal as a school teacher! Everyone knows that pedophiles can deal well with children and the rulers must have thought nothing but, let’s offer him a job in which he can work with children, because he is a good teacher.”

Russian journalist: “Meanwhile a child’s voice comes from the house of the most famous Dutch pedophile. Marthijn Uittenboogaard feels confident. His pedophile association has won a court case. (The Dutch court of justice prohibited the pedophile association in 2012 but in an appeal in March a higher court decided to reject the ban on Martijn.) According to the court, the existence of the association is no danger to society and should therefore continue to exist legally. The association may even exchange photos of children for personal use on its official website.”

Uittenbogaard stated to RT’s Ruptly.tv:

Physical contact between grown up people and children are healthy and some things we call sex can also be healthy. I think it is a very good healthy society when children can be naked, when they can enjoy their body and that they can be touched everywhere they want too. Everyone has pedophile feelings in themselves. Everyone, and it are very normal feelings, but some have them stronger than other people. You can’t do all the things with young children of course, but you can hug them, grasp them or caress them. I think we should be glad with the pedophiles in our society.

The “suicide” of 13-year-old Anass Aouragh: A perfect ritual murder?

Anass

On February 7, a security guard of amusement park Duinrell found the body of 13-year-old Anass Aouragh in a forest in his hometown of Wassenaar, the Netherlands. The Moroccan boy had been missing since the previous day, after he did not return home from distributing leaflets by bike. His bike was found by police officers on the evening of February 6, which resulted in a national Amber Alert. The alert however was only issued on social media such as Twitter, Facebook and Hyves, and not by a text message to cell phones because it was past 10PM. The next morning the Amber Alert was withdrawn when Dutch media reported that a body was found during the search for the missing boy. One week later, the media stressed that research has proved that Anass “certainly committed suicide”. But not according to his family, friends and overwhelming evidence.

In a statement to the Moroccan Maghreb Arabe Presse (MAP), Anass’s father, Mohamed Aouragh, declared there were scratches on the face and fingerprints in the neck of his deceased son, and that a witness saw Anass being taken to the forest by three individuals. Mr. Aouragh’s statement corresponds to that of a woman who told the police her son witnessed Anass getting captured by a “scary person in grey sweatpants”, but her testimony was dismissed as nonsense.

Several websites as well as Facebook messages by friends who were present at Anass’s funeral mention an imam stating the teenager was raped and murdered. An explicit though unverified comment at Dutch alternative news site argusoog.org says in Dutch language:

Cover-up, I was at Anass’s funeral and before the funeral started there was a short speech saying police investigation has shown Anass was raped first and murdered after that, media on purpose portray it as suicide to avoid huge demonstrations and escalations in the Moroccan community because the queen is about to move to Wassenaar.

According to an Arab language article at hollandonline.nl, Anass’s family has hired Dutch top lawyer Gerard Spong to “find out the truth, no matter what”. This lawyer however has a bad reputation himself when it comes to pedophile-related cover-up cases in the Netherlands, and allegedly has close ties with former Secretary-General of Justice and known pedophile Joris Demmink. The question has arisen if Mr Spong for doubtful reasons foisted himself upon the Moroccan family that likely is not aware of his reputation…

Funny and eccentric

Anass Aouragh at schoolThe so-called suicide of the 13-year-old boy at first sight fits perfectly in a pattern of teenage suicides the Netherlands has witnessed over the past months, when several severely bullied highschool students took their lives by jumping in front of a train. But while the media portrayed Anass as one of the teenagers that could not handle school bullying anymore, friends and classmates described him as a funny, eccentric guy who loved to dress up, “yellow pants one day, a bow tie the next day”.

“He was very different than the other students”, classmates told Dutch newspaper Telegraaf. “He used to wear distinctive clothing and he definitely was bullied for that, but he never talked about death.”

According to Telegraaf, Anass sent a text message to a few female friends right before he went missing, saying “do you hate me?”, which happened after these friends were punished at school for laughing at Anass during class when he pulled funny faces.

Symbolic location

One may wonder if “do you hate me?” -if already sent by Anass himself- is a typical farewell message of a desperate boy who is about to commit suicide rather than a slightly provocative question of a teenager who may be bullied but stands his ground, which not in the least shows from his clothing choice. And that isn’t the only question that comes to mind. A Dutch language video aptly summarizes:

It seems that the police is protecting the perpetrator again. Police and justice have done this many times before, for example in the Demmink case, and they particularly do this when the perpetrator is hired by high-ranking figures. Anass’s body was already buried before the investigation was completed. There were no weapons or other suicide tools found anywhere. There were scratches on his face and fingerprints in his neck. A witness’s testimony was considered to be unreliable. The municipality of Wassenaar is well known as a result of its conspicuous wealth. Given the way the investigation was conducted, there likely has been high-ranking elite involved in the murder. If this is the case, it could have been a ritual murder as well. The body of Anass was found in a forest opposite a restaurant that was closed a few months ago, a restaurant named Lucifer… could this be a symbolic place?

And there is more that indicates that the teenager’s body was not found at a random location. The forest – in fact a not very thick forested area of about 60 meters wide – is situated between Duinrell, an amusement park owned by a Rothschild family, and a street named Van Zuylen van Neyeveltstraat. The name Van Zuylen van Neyevelt refers to Marie-Hélène de Rothschild (1927-1996), born Baroness Marie-Hélène Naila Stephanie Josina van Zuylen van Nyevelt to a diplomat and businessman of Jewish and Dutch descent. In 1957, she then married her distant third cousin Baron Guy de Rothschild, head of the de Rothschild Frères bank. The street name is also similar to the last name of one of the co-directors of amusement park Duinrell, Philip van Zuylen van Neyevelt, whose wife, Baroness Maria Louisa Alexandra van Zuylen van Neyevelt-den Beer Poortugael, is the Lady of Dutch Queen Beatrix since 2011.

Anass’s father speaks to Jalal TV

Summarized translation of the Dutch language video broadcast at February 18 below.

Mr Mohamed Aouragh:

I am here for the first time now. I was too scared to come here sooner. It hurts me. But today I decided to come here, at the place where the sad event happened … Anass is gone. He is resting now. He is with Allah. He is innocent … Sometimes I still don’t believe what happened. Sometimes I think, no, Anass will return. Sometimes I wake up not knowing if it’s all a dream or reality. I can’t believe it … We buried him, but I still can’t believe it … He was a special boy, everybody talks about that … I can’t describe how I feel… a 13-year old child, innocent … Someone who wants to commit suicide plans such thing in advance. Why here? Why not at home? At 5PM he was at the library, after that he bought some clothes and then he went to distribute the leaflets… then he comes here and thinks, oh, let’s commit suicide?! That’s nonsense … I have seen his body, after the autopsy. [Photo 1 - Photo 2] To me it is clear that he has been murdered. I know and feel this is 100% true. It is clear to me, whatever they try to tell me. My child has been murdered. It is a crime. It’s a tragedy, I have no words for it … [asks the boys at 5:30 in the video] Do you know Anass? [when confirmed] What can you tell about him? Boys reply: “He was always very nice”.

Citizens’ reactions

In the weeks after the death of Anass, many concerned citizens left revealing comments on online articles about the case, such as:

I live about 150 meter away from where Anass was found … There are people telling me they have seen ‘weird individuals’ there, but they don’t tell the police … I don’t know, it is all extremely odd. On Thursday night we lied awake half the night because of the helicopters, and Anass lied only a little away from the road. They better throw away those heat sensors. And the detector dogs also didn’t find anything. It’s a mystery. (1)

Another commentator asked the following valid questions:

  • His mother called him when he didn’t come home from spreading leaflets at 6PM. At about 9PM, his phone was turned off. Who did this? If he had committed suicide, he would have done this between 5PM and 6PM, when he finished spreading the leaflets. Where has he been in the next three hours? Why did nobody see him?
  • His bike was found on the edge of the forest. The next day, his body was found ín the forest. Why didn’t the police apparently search in the forest immediately?
  • His body was buried during the investigation. One may ask, which investigation? How to examine a corpse that is already buried?
  • A witness went to the police and testified she had seen somebody with Anass. She however was sent home after police told her she “must have been sent by the family”.
  • How can a 13-year-old commit suicide in a way that keeps the police investigating for two weeks? If such boy commits suicide, shouldn’t that be obvious? (2)

Several people reported independently from each other:

In the night from February 6th to 7th, a Polish man committed suicide by hanging himself in a bungalow at amusement park Duinrell, close to where Anass’s body was found. The house has been cordoned off by police. This is the night in which Anass was missing! Why are the mainstream media completely silent on this? (3)

Citizen investigator and blogger Martin Vrijland went to the site where Anass was found and concluded:

According to Peter R. de Vries (a famous Dutch crime reporter who already hijacked many murder and abuse cases) the location has been meticulously researched, ‘every blade of grass was considered to be important’. But we found lots of rubbish and also a condom at the site. So thoroughly did they exactly investigate?

If the murder of Anass Aouragh indeed was a satanic ritual murder by high-ranking elite, then why at that moment and why at that place?

A ritual murder in ‘honour’ of the new Dutch king?

There is another highly disturbing fact to the death of Anass Aouragh which has gone completely unreported by any media: Anass’s so-called suicide happened nine days after Dutch Queen Beatrix announced to step down in favour of her son, Willem-Alexander. Moreover, Willem-Alexander and his family also live in the hometown of the Aouragh family, the wealthy municipality of Wassenaar.

Coincidence? Definitely not.

The fact that the sexual abuse and the subsequent sacrifice of prepubertal children -like Anass- by elite figures still isn’t much more than a conspiracy theorist’s fantasy to the majority of the people, only proves how well-organized this all is. Neither the scale of, nor the participants in the abuse are known by the public – yet it single handedly is the glue that holds these forces together. The well-hidden reality is that children of Anass’s age and younger are supplied to high-ranking ‘officials’ to be abused and sacrificed in satanic rituals throughout the world, in which rituals the powers behind the visual powers feed themselves with the ultimate fear of the young victim. From the perspective of this reality, it is only logical to assume that these satanic ceremonies not in the last place happen in the country that brought about the Bilderberg Group and that is home to many members of the Rothschild family, and not in the last place on the occasion of important events such as the abdication of the Dutch Queen.

Taking in consideration the wall of denial and resistance that witnesses and truth seekers have faced in the Anass case, what else to conclude than that police, justice, government and media once again protect their own criminals?

May there be justice for Anass Aouragh, and for all the children who have faced similar atrocities.

Washington hearing farce: High-ranking pedophile involved in own investigation

washhearing

On October 4, 2012, a hearing of the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights, chaired by New Jersey politician Chris Smith, took place in Washington, which hearing was announced by the committee as “Listening to Victims of Child Sex Trafficking” in the Netherlands. During the hearing, former Dutch Secretary-General of Justice, Joris Demmink, was exposed as pedophile and child abuser. But who exactly is behind the Dutch department of the Helsinki Committee?

Prior to the hearing (video here and full transcript here) the committee announced the event in a briefing as:

The sex trafficking and abuse of children is a crime that destroys the lives of the victims as well as the social fabric of society. The traffickers and abusers rely on their ability to frighten a child into silence or the reluctance of adults to listen when children speak. It is imperative that the justice system be ready to listen to allegations and to thoroughly investigate them.

The Helsinki Commission, in conjunction with the Victims’ Rights Caucus, will hold a briefing on how justice systems can most effectively respond to domestic and international allegations of child trafficking. The briefing will include a current case study in the Netherlands, where a government official has been accused of domestic and international child sex trafficking. Dutch authorities conducted a preliminary investigation, but many have found it grossly unsatisfactory as Dutch authorities interviewed only one of three victims and none of the available witnesses or facilitators of the alleged crime was interviewed. For more on the case study, please view the following video.

The following panelists are scheduled to participate:

Adèle van der Plas, Attorney for domestic and international child victims of sex trafficking, Bakker Schut & Van der Plas

Klaas Langendoen, Private Investigator, Former Chief of the Criminal Intelligence Service, Netherland

Survivor of child trafficking in Amsterdam, Netherlands

Samantha Vardaman, Senior Director for Shared Hope International

Visiting the website of the Netherlands Helsinki Commission (NHC) however led to a remarkable discovery. As can be read at the About Us page of the website, one of the members of executive committee of the NHC is no other than the known Dutch pedophile himself, Joris Demmink…

Demmink

In the video below a spokesperson of Dutch activist group We Are Change Rotterdam asks Latvian Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, Nils Muižnieks, the question: “What if we find out that local Dutch authorities are involved in these crimes? [pedophilia and child abuse] Can they subsequently only be discussed in a far-away country like the United States?” Mr. Muižnieks indicates he has no knowledge of the Joris Demmink case and suggests to ask the NHC about the issue directly.

As Dutch whistleblower Micha Kat points out at his website, it seems that the infiltration of pedophiles reaches to the highest levels of international government and human rights organizations…

Dutch pedophile exposer to stand trial, high-ranking pedophile still walking free

arrestdemmink

December 8, 2012 – December 10* marks the trial of investigative journalist, activist and foremost Dutch Bilderberg Group hunter Micha Kat. The 49-year-old faces the Court in the Hague for alleged insults to the Dutch royal family, alleged discrimination of a lawyer whose fraudulent and corrupt activities he exposed, two alleged false bomb threats, alleged death threats against a journalist of Dutch mainstream newspaper Telegraaf, overall “instigation”, and for writing “danger: pedophile” in Dutch language on the house of known Dutch pedophile Joris Demmink who has been the most powerful man of the Netherlands for the last decade.

When arriving at Schiphol airport from Laos where he then lived, Kat was arrested in April this year over the above allegations. He was imprisoned until the beginning of September and his case was suspended till December 10*.

Micha KatKat is particularly known for his website klokkenluideronline.nl (meaning “onlinewhistleblower.nl”) where he mainly exposes and denounces national abuses. Some external links to his articles however redirect to the website rechtspraak.nl (“jurisdictions.nl”), the official website of the High Council of the Netherlands, as a result of censorship of certain topics by the Court of Amsterdam, including pieces that exposed the dark secrets of the Dutch royal family. Some of these secrets are published in an excellent 2010 article at infowars.com, authored by Kat and investigative writer Jurriaan Maessen, which article contains the following disturbing and -even in the Netherlands- largely unknown facts:

The great-grandfather from [prince] Friso’s mother’s [queen Beatrix] side, a German prince named Hendrik, raped his own daughter, the mother of queen Beatrix, as a result of which a daughter was born. The father of Friso, Claus, was a homosexual who also used children for sexual pleasure. The lawyer of the Queen and main guardian of the crown prince, Friso’s brother, was a sadistic pedophile against whom even testimony of child executions exists.

In a December 2 message at his website, Kat writes in Dutch language on his upcoming trial:

December 10, 2012: The day justice will die? – On 10 December, the Dutch State wants to finally deal with whistleblower Micha Kat. Will he get a fair trial as also has been promised in vain to Jasper S.? [an innocent scapegoat recently used in one of the biggest murder cases in the Netherlands, namely the -likely lust or even ritual- murder of 16-year-old Marianne Vaatstra in 1999]. Or will he be put in a straitjacket and sent to a psychiatric prison unit, as demanded by Peter R. de Vries? [A famous Dutch crime reporter and royal puppet who hijacked many murder and abuse cases].

In the below video (partially English and partially Dutch with English subtitles), Micha Kat provides a revealing look at the activities of the Bilderberg Group which was founded by the father of Dutch queen Beatrix, prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld (1911-2004), a former member of the German Nazi NSDAP. Queen Beatrix is said to hold the third position in the current Bilderberg hierarchy and never fails to attend the annual Bilderberg Group meetings, accompanied by her oldest son and future Dutch king prince Willem-Alexander. The video shows at 8:55 how Kat was arrested in 2010 when he confronted the president of the Dutch Bank, Nout Wellink, during a hearing with his membership of the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission.

Now that the whistleblower in an Orwellian twist of justice has to stand trial while the criminals he exposed are still walking free, let’s take a look at one of the main cases Micha Kat among a few others has brought to light:

The Joris Demmink case

Largely unknown outside of the Netherlands and having his crimes well covered up by the Dutch authorities and the royal family, is the homosexual Joris Demmink, born December 11, 1947, the most powerful man of the Netherlands until he retired as highest official of the Dutch Ministry of Safety and Justice on November 1, 2012. During Demmink’s farewell party, Micha Kat and six other journalists were arrested in order to prevent them from interviewing Demmink.

Demmink finds himself in the center of a pedophile scandal that is far more powerful, evil and far reaching than even the majority of the Dutch know. On the Dutch website demminkdoofpot.nl (“demminkcoverup.nl”), an audio fragment says in Dutch language: “During conversations with (Dutch magazines) Panorama and Gay Krant behind closed doors last week, he (Demmink) admitted he had sex with young gay boys, and that he hadn’t always asked about their age”.

Below is an extensive though incomplete overview of Demmink’s carrier as a homosexual pedophile, partially taken from the overview in Dutch language which is available at demminkdoofpot.nl.

1978 – 1982

At the District Court in The Hague work at least two pedophile judges: Mr Stolk and Mr Rueb. This fact is about to come out during the case of alleged Dutch serial killer Koos Hertogs. His case contains the killing of three young girls, a police officer and the wife of Mr Stolk. Though Hertogs never confessed to committing these crimes, he is sentenced to life imprisonment in 1982, the year in which Demmink made his entrance to the Ministry of Justice.

1991

Dutch female pediatrician Joyce Labruyère is killed. The still unresolved murder is associated with a network of pedophiles operating within the Netherlands. Investigative journalists report of a connection between the murder and “authorities who sexually abuse underage boys” and claim that Mrs Labruyère had become aware of child abuse by Dutch officials.

1994

After police investigations, a Dutch newspaper mentions “the involvement of a top official from the Hague” in the abuse of minors.

1996

The Susurluk scandal takes place. Micha Kat’s 2007 article “Nederlandse Staat Gechanteerd door Turkije” (“The Netherlands Blackmailed by Turkey”) analyses the scandal and claims Turkey has evidence proving that Demmink organized sex parties in Turkey during which minors were abused. The article states that the sex parties were organized in collaboration with drug offenders who had contacts with the Turkish government, including with then Prime Minister Tansu Ciller.

1998

Kurdish businessman Hüseyin Baybasin is arrested in the Netherlands for “criminal activities” related to “drug trafficking, extortion and murder” and is sentenced to life imprisonment in 2002. PKK sympathizer Baybasin has always claimed to be the victim of a conspiracy against him by the Turkish state. He said that Turkey had put pressure on the Netherlands to arrest him by threatening to disclose information on Demmink’s abuse of minors in Turkey.

A Dutch television program mentions that young boys were smuggled from Poland to the Netherlands with the assistance of “a top official of the Dutch government”. It adds that a top official named “Joris” (Demmink’s first name) for that reason has been sentenced to 240 hours of community service and six months of conditional imprisonment. Later the media claim this was “another Joris”.

Amsterdam authorities investigate on a pedophile network which includes a former lawyer of the Dutch queen, two main prosecutors, a former minister and a professor. In the wake of this research, Dutch intelligence agency BVD (currently: AIVD), receives messages regarding the sexual escapades of Demmink. Documents also state that Demmink tried to sabotage the investigation by transferring information to suspects.

2000

Demmink attracts the attention of the research editors of Dutch NOS News who investigate whether the Dutroux affair had branches in the Netherlands.

2002

Kurdish businessman Hüseyin Baybasin is sentenced to life imprisonment on the basis of falsified tape conversations.

Demmink is appointed Secretary-General of Justice which is the highest possible rank in Justice in the Netherlands. Dutch intelligence agency AIVD (formerly: BVD) says that prior to this appointment, they investigated on “circa 40 rumors about the lifestyle of Demmink”. A sister organization of the AIVD reportedly tried to obstruct the appointment because of Demmink’s “sexual lifestyle”.

2003

Joris DemminkA Dutch TV program broadcasts a documentary on the unjust process against Baybasin. The magazines Panorama and GayKrant decide on a collective independent investigation of Demmink. They publish articles revealing that Demmink abused children in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and in a sex bar in Prague. A man named Frank Leenders comes forward as a witness and victim. He says Demmink has been present during the filming of a porn movie in the Czech Republic where a child has died as a result of penetration with a dildo. Leenders files a complaint against Demmink and Dutch NOS News names Demmink as a suspect of child abuse. As a result of this, then Minister of Justice Donner threatens to prosecute all media that mention the name of the “suspected official”. Subsequently, the Dutch Public Prosecutor declares that the complaint against Demmink is false, which is contradicted by Leenders.

The chief editors of Panorama and GayKrant conduct an interview with Demmink at his home. Demmink refuses publication of the interview, but NOS News intercepts emails revealing that Demmink during the interview admitted to “having visited gay bars in Prague”, “having had a relationship with a young Czech boy who acted in porn movies” and that he is “attracted to young boys”. Panorama and GayKrant nonetheless give in to Demmink’s request and don’t publish the interview. Later it comes out that the editors of Panorama and Gaykrant are no longer allowed to talk or write about Demmink on penalty of a fine of 100,000 Euros. They even start to call their “source” unreliable.

However, one of the editors starts to have qualms of conscience and reveals the entire story to a NOS News journalist, saying that he has become part of a cover-up. On November 5, NOS News reports that “the top official has admitted to abusing children”.

2004

In January, Demmink files a complaint against NOS News, which complaint is declared admissible. Meanwhile German newspaper Die Welt also reports on a connection between the Dutroux case and a Dutch pedophile network in its article “Kein Einzeltäter” (“Not an individual act”). Die Welt writes of a film in which a 13-year old German boy was forced to have oral sex with multiple men, which made the boy choke and die. This film was found in Zandvoort, the Netherlands, at the house of a pedophile named Gerrit Ulrich, who later has been murdered. A close friend of this man also was the guardian of the children of queen Beatrix…

The Ministry of Justice announces it will prosecute Frank Leenders for making “false accusations”. A TV program claims Leenders was paid to make a complaint against Demmink, which Leenders himself denies. He however is convicted for “making false accusations” and is sentenced to two months’ probation.

Demmink’s personal driver “suddenly dies” after he started to have “growing moral problems” with Demmink.

2006

The Turkish media publish several articles on the Turkish government’s blackmail of the Dutch government at the end of the nineties, saying the Demmink case was used to “deal with Baybasin”.

2007

Baybasin files a complaint against Demmink concerning “pedophile activities, repeatedly committed since at least 1990 in Turkey and other countries, incitement resp. (co)perpetration of intentional and unlawful detention and participation in a criminal organization”. The complaint is based on a yet secret report on the Turkish government’s blackmail of the Dutch. A Dutch Member of Parliament asks the Minister of Justice for parliamentary questions following Baybasin’s complaint. The Minister orders a so-called “exploratory investigation” by the Public Prosecutor, which is a term that legally actually doesn’t exist.

Micha Kat’s website publishes the article “Nederlandse Staat Gechanteerd door Turkije” (“The Netherlands blackmailed by Turkey”) .

Several reports appear in the Dutch media concerning Demmink’s participation in Dési Bouterse‘s coup in Suriname in 1981, when Demmink was still working at the Ministry of Defense. Sources say Demmink was in an “intense relationship” with a young Suriname soldier from the Bouta team that was responsible for the December murders in 1982.

Demmink visits Baybasin in prison which angers his lawyer, Ms Adele van der Plas. Via the Dutch Socialist’s party she requests that Demmink should be excluded from getting in touch with Baybasin, but the request is declined. Van der Plas files a complaint against Demmink.

Several parliamentary inquiries regarding Demmink take place, some of them explicitly ask about the presence of Demmink at sex parties in Turkey. Some Dutch newspapers and TV programs pay attention to the Demmink case via exposing articles and footage. In response, one of the leading Dutch newspapers, NRC Handelsblad, publishes a flattering profile of Demmink in which prominent politicians call him a decent man, saying that they “have never heard anything negative regarding Demmink’s private life” and that it is “a fact that up to now Demmink has refuted all accusations”. A journalist who is investigating the case reportedly receives death threats.

Turkish investigative journalist Burhan Kazmali is detained at the airport in Istanbul to prohibit him from testifying against Demmink in the Netherlands regarding Baybasin’s complaint.

NRC Handelsblad publishes an article with headline “Topman justitie is schoon” (“Top Justice Official is clean”). It argues that several investigations by Dutch intelligence agency AIVD didn’t provide any evidence of Demmink’s involvement in “criminal activities”. However, Baybasin’s lawyer states that there has not been any investigation at all.

The Public Prosecutor announces that Demmink will not be prosecuted.

This is how Dutch politicians react when being asked about Joris Demmink (English subtitles):

2008

Baybasin’s attorney again tries in vain to prosecute Demmink, partially based on new evidence collected by a Dutch journalist who investigated the Turkey case. Demmink again receives much media attention. Leading Dutch newspaper Telegraaf which used to criticize Demmink, suddenly starts to protect him and claims that Demmink has become the victim of a demonizing campaign against him. In November, Dutch newspaper Volkskrant asks readers for topics their journalists should write about, and many readers reply with “the Demmink case”, but Volkskrant refuses to do so.

Dutch radio station Arrow Classic Rock interviews Micha Kat on the Demmink case on July 10, which causes a flood of responses but the mainstream media remain silent. On September 1, Adam Curry, the DJ who conducted the interview with Kat, is fired. Curry currently lives in the U.S.

On October 31, a Hyves page is launched with the purpose to mobilize the Dutch people against Demmink. Within 12 hours the site has almost 1,200 members. On November 2, the site disappears. On November 3 at noon the site is back online.

A judge writes to Micha Kat that Demmink, accompanied by the former and current Dutch Minister of Justice, has visited a sex club in Breda, the Netherlands.

A former detective who investigated into Demmink’s activities in Turkey declares in a Dutch crime magazine:

“I am aware that this is an extremely sensitive case. But it is not my job to make the evidence conclusive. All I have to do is to bring on enough “ammunition” to make the Court of the Hague decide to further investigate the case. I am confident that this will happen. If someone claims on camera that he has been sexually abused at a young age by a senior Justice official, it simply can’t be ignored by pretending nothing happened, right? We know this boy, we know where he lives and how he can be contacted.”

The Court of the Hague however decides not to prosecute Demmink. Reports say the Court actually refused to take a look at the evidence.

After Baybasin and Leenders, a Turkish boy named Mustafa Y. also files a complaint against Demmink.

On December 30, Leenders’ lawyer “falls off his bike” and dies.

2009

Throughout the first months of the year, several media start to pay attention to the Demmink case again. He is often mentioned in connection with child abuse and the remarkable role he played in the Bouterse coup in Suriname. In May a television crew confronts Demmink near his house with the accusations of child abuse. Demmink flees in his service car.

Dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad publishes an article on Demmink’s extremely high invoices which are paid by the Dutch state.

It is revealed that a Turkish TV-station is trying to conduct an interview with Baybasin since three years. The Dutch embassy has urged them not to talk about the Demmink case, or about the Dutch royal family…

A Turkish man who played an important role in creating “evidence” against Baybasin and who also intimidated witness Mustafa Y. is arrested in Turkey.

2010

The Institute for the Study of Globalization mentions in its article “A closer look at child abuse networks in the Netherlands and Belgium” that Demmink “on a top level” is involved with pedophile networks in the Netherlands and Belgium.

In June, Dutch Dr J. Poot publishes his book De Demmink Doofpot (The Demmink Cover up). The main purpose of the book is to bring about a parliamentary and judicial investigation into the pedophile practices of the highest official of the Dutch Ministry of Justice, Joris Demmink.

A regional newspaper writes that the Dutch Public Prosecution Service is willing to cooperate in filing a complaint against Demmink regarding the Mustafa Y. case. Y. says he has been abused and raped by Demmink when he was 12 and 13 years old (which was in 1994 and 1995). However, no complaint is filed.

In August, the author of The Demmink Cover up publishes a large advertisement in NRC Handelsblad, asking Demmink why he is “silent like death” after the publication of the book. In September he reveals via another advertisement in the same newspaper that a whistleblower in the Demmink case has received death threats. The Officer of Justice gives the whistleblower the advice to go abroad for six weeks , telling him his life is not save in the Netherlands.

A Rotterdam university professor asks the Minister of Justice to clarify the Demmink case. The Minister replies by saying that he sees no reason to do so.

2012

Demmink retires as Secretary-General of the Ministry of Security and Justice on November 1.

UNTIL THEN, THIS CRIMINAL HAS BEEN THE MOST POWERFUL MAN OF THE NETHERLANDS!!!

During the week of his retirement, Demmink’s crimes finally caught some international media attention. The American Spector‘s Peter Hannaford published an article on the case saying:

In the Jerry Sandusky case Penn State officials closed their ears for years to rumors about his behavior. In the Netherlands, the alleged pedophile Joris Demmink, Secretary-General of the Dutch Ministry of Justice, has had a close friend thwart official investigations into his behavior. That friend? Himself. This cozy arrangement may be about to come to an end.

while CBN News broadcast some of the testimonies of Demmink’s victims to a Capitol Hill audience on October 26.

A more detailed description of Demmink and the Dutch nightmarish tale of corruption, abduction, child pornography and murder can be found in the below documentary.

Part 2:

Demmink, prince Friso and the Marianne Vaatstra murder: A short look at an extensive case

Joris Demmink’s name popped up again regarding one of the most sensational murder cases in the Netherlands. In the night of May 1, 1999 -the day after the Dutch Queen’s Day celebration- 16-year-old Marianne Vaatstra was raped and killed in a rural area in the province of Friesland. She was found naked with her throat cut later on that day. Some of the initial suspects were two Turkish young men together with two German men who traded drugs and porn material. The Turkish men by then lived in an asylum center close to the site of the murder and they appeared to have influential family and friends in Turkey. As Dutch asylum centers are known as a breeding ground for criminal activities such as prostitution and human trafficking, it is unlikely that the Turks, if they were part of a large web of criminal activities, deliberately chose a Dutch girl to rape and kill and thus took the risk of having many other crimes at the asylum center exposed – unless they were protected by the Ministry of Justice itself. Taking in consideration that the Turkish government has blackmail material on high-ranking Dutch officials including Demmink, it isn’t far-fetched to conclude that the Turkish men may have been involved in the murder of Vaatstra.

Subsequently, in an epic exchange of identities, a Turkish man with the common Turkish name Ali Hassan has been regarded as one of the suspects by Dutch officials and media right after the murder, while one of the real suspects, the asylum seeker whose name also is Ali Hassan, has been smuggled out of the Netherlands shortly after the crime took place. One should remember that it was impossible to send any asylum seeker back to their country or to any other country without the approval of one man: Joris Demmink.

In the meantime the trailer of the German drugs and porn traders went up in flames. A volunteer firefighter has declared that he was not allowed to immediately extinguish the fire, and a young girl has testified that the trailer was a gathering place for all alleged suspects in the murder case – including some friends of Vaatstra whose testimonies on the night of the murder have proven to be highly contradicting and suspect. However, the young girl was explicitly told by officials that she was wrong and that the trailer did not belong to the Germans.

Marianne VaatstraThere is more than one possible scenario to this still unresolved murder. Micha Kat again came forward as a pioneer of truth when he had the courage to publicly relate the Vaatstra murder with a member of the Dutch royal family: the controversial prince Johan Friso who has been notably accompanied by Demmink during both official and unofficial events. A truthful profile of the shadowy second son of queen Beatrix can be found in the above-mentioned Infowars article Grim Tidings From the Netherlands: Prince Bernhard’s Grandchildren Continue Bilderberg Legacy, co-authored by Kat. Friso used to work as a part time director of TNO Space, an organization which specializes in developing techniques for controlling the population from outer space, and is married to Mabel Wisse-Smit, director of George Soros’ Brussels-based Open Society Institute and also highly controversial for her former (romantic) liaison with “the founding father of Dutch drugs trafficking” Klaas Bruinsma who was shot death in 1991. As Friso has been frequently spotted as a homosexual, especially during his student days in the United States, many -including Kat- have suggested that his marriage to Wisse-Smit is not only a cover up for his homosexuality but also for the fact that the royal family may have close ties with the organized crime Wisse-Smit has been part of.

Marianne Vaatstra was killed in the night from 30 April to 1 May, which wasn’t only the night after Queen’s Day – that night is also known as Walpurgis Night in large parts of Central and Northern Europe. Moreover, it was full moon during the night of the murder. Kat exposed the direct relationship between the worshipping of Satan and child sacrifice during Walpurgis Night and what he considers as the ritual murder of Vaatstra, and has stated that Friso may have been the one who ordered “the killing of a virgin during Walpurgis Night” in a Satanic ritual. Kat bases his statement on the testimony of a “super witness” who has declared that prince Friso was the instigator of the sacrifice of Marianne Vaatstra and that many “officials” were present during the satanic event. At his website Kat wonders if the Satanists from the Hague use Dutch girls for their perverted lusts.

The still unsolved Vaatstra case was reopened early this year. Around the same time, during a holiday in Lech, Austria – initially only with his gay friend and later with his family – Friso was caught in a bizarre avalanche accident and has been in a coma in London’s Wellington Hospital since then. In September a large DNA research project took place regarding the Vaatstra murder. Eight thousand men who lived within a radius of five kilometers of the site of the murder voluntarily took part in the research, and on November 18 the Vaatstra case was declared solved after the arrest of 45-year-old farmer Jasper Scheringa based on “matching DNA evidence”. Sources however have declared that the DNA of dozens of men has been found on Vaatstra’s body…

The day after the “solution” of the murder, the Dutch media reported that prince Friso for the first time after his avalanche accident in February had shown “signs of minimal consciousness”.

…was he trying to make something clear?

When I write this, it is the evening of December 6, 2012, another black day in the history of justice in the Netherlands as the Public Prosecutor just told the media that Jasper Scheringa has confessed to the murder of Marianne Vaatstra. According to Dutch media, he said that he “did not know her but accidentally ran into her”, whereafter he “took her to a meadow under threat of a knife” and subsequently raped and killed her.

Micha Kat’s first reaction in Dutch language, right after the news of the confession appeared in the media:

Ministry of Justice forces confession * The Netherlands has become a judicial horror state with torture chambers * What torture methods were used? * Biggest provocation of the law ever by criminal pedophile mafia inside the Ministry of Justice * Jasper was on the verge of getting a new lawyer; the Ministry of Justice must have panicked * Was is torture, or the promise of the villa in Paraguay and a new identity? * The real offenders were smuggled out of the country by the Ministry * Demmink was directly involved in the Vaatstra murder.

Demmink’s victims speak out

On the eve of the trial of Micha Kat who has been detained and pestered numerous times for exposing many of the above horrible facts, let’s in conclusion take a look at a very important hearing which took place on October 4, 2012, and which has gone largely unreported by both mainstream and independent media:

Dutch Bilderberg Queen abdicates in favour of her son

?????

January 29 – Dutch Queen Beatrix, the oldest daughter of Bilderberg Group founder prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld and also known as Bilderberg Bea for currently holding the third position in the Bilderberg hierarchy, has abdicated her throne in favor of her eldest son, 45-year-old prince Willem-Alexander.

Beatrix, who will turn 75 on January 31 and who is the oldest ever Dutch monarch, announced to step down in a televised address yesterday. She has reigned the Netherlands for 33 years. The coronation of regular Bilderberg Group attendee Willem-Alexander will take place on April 30.

David Icke on the abdication of the Dutch Queen:

Bilderberg Regular Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands ‘Royal’ Family (with more skeletons and cupboards than a graveyard and a furniture store, see House of Windsor) abdicates in favour of her son.

You still have a royal family that rules through sexual partners, Netherlands? Oh, I have just had it away with my friend’s friend’s best mate and so we now have a future monarch? The king is dead – long live the king?

How quaint and how funny … but the British are far too intelligent to allow that – and the Spanish, Belgians, Danish, Swedish … right?

It was nothing to do with our posting this week was it one-time Princess Beatrix Wilhelmina Armgard of the Netherlands, Princess of Orange-Nassau, Princess of Lippe-Biesterfeld?

We do hope not – you know how much we support rule by genetics and inherited privilege especially by Nazis like your father.

A profile of Willem-Alexander by Dutch whistleblower and pedophile exposer Micha Kat and investigative writer Jurriaan Maessen:

[...] a word about the oldest brother: William-Alexander, heir to the throne, who accompanies his mother to the annual Bilderberg-meetings. He is certainly no stranger to the long-term ambitions of his family, but- as heir to the throne- keeps his actions much more in the dark than his two brothers. As he is subject to a high degree of scrutiny, this prince passes his time with ‘global water-management’ for the UN. And even in this apparently innocent day job, the prince can hardly refrain from pushing global governance. It’s in his blood, you might say. In a document prepared by the prince for the Johannesburg Summit, he states:

The most important area of global governance with a substantial potential impact on the water sector is the system of international trade.”

Lamenting that: “The effort to develop a much-needed institutional framework for international water governance has met with resistance and been relatively unsuccessful”, the prince recommends to “Have the World Trade Organization develop and consider virtual water balances, using a resource accounting framework, when assessing and negotiating agriculture subsidies and trade in agricultural products.”

Here they go again, have the WTO strangle nation-states into submission by lending and retracting agricultural funding.

In the international arena”, says the prince, “water has shown to be a good catalyst for cooperation between nations.”

At a 2004 meeting of the International Institute for Sustainable Development held at United Nations headquarters in New York, the prince of Orange sat side by side with Bilderberger and Executive Director of UNEP Klaus Töpfer, discussing the “overall review of implementation of Agenda 21.” This, by the way, is the same Töpfer that admitted to an “international consensus on worldwide population control” back in 2000.”

Murdering a Humpback Whale in the Netherlands

johannes

December 14, 2012 – A humpback whale that was stranded on a sandbank near the island of Texel, the Netherlands, on Wednesday, has been murdered by two doctors from the dolphinarium of the Dutch city of Harderwijk. The reason: the whale’s skeleton was already sold to a nature museum.

On Friday night a team of whale rescuers supported by citizen volunteers arrived at the Razende Bol (“Raging Ball”), a sandbank that covers an area of around five km², but they were stopped from rescuing the animal by authorities. At 7:30PM a lethal injection was given to the 12-metre long and 25 tonne heavy mammal, named Johannes by the Dutch. Newspaper Telegraaf subsequently confirmed the death of the whale that earlier managed to free itself from the sandbank but returned after an hour. Continue reading

Dutch photographer held hostage in Syria: jihadists, rebels, half-truths and lies

Dutch photographer Jeroen Oerlemans (ANP)

July 28, 2012 – Jihadists

“They were only foreign jihadists; I don’t think there was one Syrian among them,” Dutch photographer Jeroen Oerlemans says about the group of fighters who captured and held him and British photographer John Cantlie for a week in northern Syria. Referring to them as jihadists, he declares in an interview with journalist Bram Vermeulen in Dutch newspaper NRC: “Those guys are totally independent from the Free Syrian Army. Many of them spoke good English, with Birmingham accents. According to them, a large flow of international fighters have crossed the borders with Syria during the past few weeks.”

Oerlemans, a freelancer with the British agency Panos Pictures, and Cantlie illegally crossed the Syrian border with Turkey on July 19 through a hole in the border fence and climbed up a hill. “John [Cantlie] had entered Syria this way before”, Oerlemans tells NRC, “but where he went left before, we now went right. A Syrian smuggler sent us in that direction. He was constantly on the phone and didn’t speak English, so we couldn’t discuss anything with him. After a while we reached what I thought was a refugee camp – but we walked straight into a group of twenty bearded men who started to yell at us and showed us their Kalashnikovs. We asked them if they were shabiha, Assad forces. ‘You don’t think shabiha would speak English’, a Pakistani-looking guy said to us. There were a few Africans among the group. Many Central-Asians. Foreign jihadists.” Continue reading

“Friends of Syria” to meet in the Netherlands to proceed with Globalist Plans

July 20, 2012 – On a yet unknown date in September, the Netherlands will host the next and fourth meeting of the so-called “Friends of Syria” group, a coalition of Western and Arab countries which support the armed terrorists who seek to replace president Assad’s government with a puppet regime. The Dutch Foreign Ministry announced the meeting on Friday, adding its purpose will be “a further improvement of the sanctions against the Syrian regime.”

“Heavy pressure on Syria is now more necessary than ever”, declared Dutch FM Rosenthal in a statement on the Foreign Ministry’s website.

Rosenthal, who will be the president of the meeting which is hosted in his country on the request of Qatar, stated that further sanctions against Syria should be taken “to stop the violence and to initiate a political process”. Other ways to achieve this are “providing support to the [Syrian] opposition” and “providing humanitarian aid”, Rosenthal said. Continue reading

White House pulls ambassador-nominee to the Netherlands accused of drunk driving

Timothy M. Broas

Timothy M. Broas

June 30, 2012 – American lawyer Timothy M. Broas will not be the new ambassador to the Netherlands, the White House announced on Thursday night.

The White House gave no reason for the move. A spokesperson said the Washington attorney “withdrew his nomination for personal reasons” and declined to comment further.

But according to iWatch News, Broas’ nomination has been withdrawn “following charges of drunk driving and resisting arrest in suburban Maryland earlier last week”:

Court records show that Broas, 58, was pulled over by police on June 19 at 1:18 AM on Connecticut Avenue in Chevy Chase and charged with “attempting to drive [a] vehicle while under the influence of alcohol”.

He was ticketed for driving 47 miles per hour in a 35 mile per hour zone. He also faces a criminal charge of resisting arrest, according to Montgomery County District Court records. Continue reading

Dutch Amnesty International launches propaganda campaign to make “Putin stop Assad”

June 27, 2012 – In yet another politically-motivated move, the Dutch branch of Amnesty International has launched a petition campaign urging Russian president Putin to demand Syrian president Bashar al-Assad to stop what Amnesty describes as the “systematical use of horrible violence by Syrian government troops and militias in towns and villages”.

The site writes in Dutch language: People are dragged out of their houses and are summarily executed. Prisoners are tortured, sometimes to death. The Syrian army surrounds cities and incessantly bombs and shells them. There also took dozens of massacres place in which children were murdered in cold blood. This violence has to stop now!

Russia blocks the UN Security Council and thus prevents any possible solution. Russia continues to supply arms to the Syrian regime. Russia is against the departure of president Assad, against military intervention and against an arms embargo.

Ask Russian president Putin to take responsibility and to use his influence to end the violence in Syria! Continue reading

U.S. authorities able to access fingerprints of all Dutch citizens

June 8, 2012 – Stored fingerprints and photographs from Dutch passports could be confiscated by authorities in the United States. Dutch Home Affairs Minister, Liesbeth Spies, considers this as a real possibility because the Dutch passports are produced by an American company. Via the Patriot Act, the Dutch biometric data can be claimed. Gerard Schouw, MP of the Dutch D66 – D(emocrats since 19)66 – party, says the Minister should take action.

The fingerprints and facial scans from the passports and identity cards of all Dutch citizens are not stored safely, Minister Spies acknowledges in response to parliamentary questions by Gerard Schouw. The D66 MP already asked these questions in Parliament in February. Spies now admits that the database full of fingerprints and photographs of the Haarlem-based company Morpho B.V. “in theory” can end up in the hands of the U.S. government. Continue reading
