Report Public Prosecutor deliberately misled judiciary on fireworks disaster


After a four year investigation, MEP Paul van Buitenen has concluded that the public prosecutor deliberately misled the judiciary on the firework disaster at SE Fireworks in Enschede on May 13, 2000.  Van Buitenen’s report consists of 800 pages.  He concluded that the public prosecutor did not want  the government to be blamed, partly for the explosion.  As a result, 23 people were killed and 950 were injured.  Van Buitenen also concluded that the fire brigade fought the fire in violation of the regulations and hazard statements.  He also says that the National Detective Service who investigated the government services, deliberately omitted a number of issues from their investigation.
