During the past year a commission headed by former
Prosecutor General at the High Court, Jan Watse Fokkens, has investigated
breaches of integrity in the public prosecution. The issue concerned a romantic relationship
between former prosecutor general in Rotterdam, Marc van Nimwegen, and head Officer
of Justice, Marianne Bloos. The report
concludes that for many years van Nimwegen and Bloos have had an intimate
relationship. The committee reproached
the public prosecution for only starting to investigate the issue when the NRC daily
in 2018 published information about the affair.
As a result of the report van Nimwegen has been suspended and the forced
leave of Bloos has been prolonged.
