In 1977 Minister of Justice ordered Execution of Train Hijackers

In 1977 a Dutch train was hijacked by people from the South Moluccas. A policeman has now declared that then Minister of Justice Dries van Agt (Christian Democrat) had ordered that the hijackers “should not leave the train alive.” When Dutch marines stormed the train six hijackers and two hostages were killed.
