According to the court, it can be concluded from various chat conversations via EncroChat that the Amersfoorter was involved in the trade in mdma, the active substance in ecstasy. His identity was revealed by personal information he shared. For example, he said to a contact: “Come by tomorrow, it’s my birthday, I have a barbecue”. The date in question is his date of birth. When his ‘clients’ then asked where he lived, he sent his address and wrote: “Tex me when I’m almost I’ll walk out.”
