On Thursday, the court in Breda sentenced six men to 4 years in prison for involvement in a crystal meth lab in the Zeeland town of Westdorpe. A 55-year-old Dutchman will receive 4.5 years in prison, three Dominicans (31, 54 and 57) and two Mexicans (40 and 49) will receive four years in prison. The Dutchman's sentence is higher because 1,080 grams of amphetamine were found in his home.

The six men – who had previously been jailed for five years – deny their involvement. They stated that they worked in the lab as a handyman, cleaner and welder. The court does not believe this.
