Minister of Justice, Ivo Opstelten
(Liberal) has informed parliament that all information required about jihadist
Omar H. was known to all relevant services, including the prosecution, when he
fled the country. In 2013, H. was condemned
to a year-long sentence, of which eight months was a prison term and of which
four months was probation. The prosecution appealed to the higher court while
H. was freed after having served his prison term. The appeals court increased
the sentence to include a longer prison term, which meant that H. had to return
to jail. The prosecution prided itself
in the speed in which it obtained the court’s decision related to
terrorism. In the meantime, H. left the
country.
