Lawyer Ruud van Boom denounced in the Utrecht court the way in which the police and the Public Prosecution Service evidence has been collected. According to him, concrete evidence is lacking: “No drugs were found, no buyers, no weapons and no witnesses.” According to him, “the chats in the file of someone who would be my client” also do not provide a full representation of what has been communicated, because only part of the messages have been decrypted. The chats about corrupt cops would have been boastful on the part of his client.
