Up to almost 9 years for large-scale cocaine import for 'Bolle Jos'
September 2, 2024

The court in Amsterdam on Monday sentenced four Amsterdam residents to almost nine years in prison for involvement in large-scale cocaine trafficking. The four are accused in the Paxidia investigation of participating in a criminal drug organization and involvement in three large cocaine transports in 2020.

Bolle Jos
Het Parool reports that the four men have been convicted of directing the removal of large quantities of cocaine from the ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp for the fugitive drug baron 'Bolle Jos' Leijdekkers.

Three parties
The evidence in the case is based on intercepted Sky-ECC messages. It concerns the import of 2,263 kilos of cocaine into the port of Rotterdam in April 2020, the import of 860 kilos of cocaine into Rotterdam in April 2020 and the import of 335 kilos of cocaine into Antwerp, Rotterdam or Vlissingen, in May 2020. Several suspects are also convicted of possession of a submachine gun and a gun with associated ammunition, laundering exclusive brand clothing, brand shoes and luxury goods, such as expensive sunglasses and bracelets.

French cell
Shaquille C. (29) is sentenced to six years and nine months in prison, while the public prosecutor had demanded nine years against him. C. is currently in custody in France for a similar case. C. was arrested in Colombia in early 2023 on suspicion of importing more than 3,300 kilos of cocaine. He was arrested in Amsterdam-Zuidoost in February 2021 by an arrest team for, among other things, theft with violence and threats. C. was then arrested together with Danzel S., alias rapper Bigidagoe, who was shot dead near Amsterdam-Sloterdijk in February this year .

Lower penalties
30-year-old Jeymon A. is sentenced to eight years and nine months in prison. The Public Prosecution Service demanded eleven years against him. Sven O. (36) must also serve eight years and nine months. At the end of June, the Public Prosecution Service demanded ten years against him. The sentences of the court are lower because not all suspicions have been proven and the reasonable term has been exceeded.

Belgium
The 32-year-old Nahésson C. is sentenced to two years and nine months in prison, instead of three years, as demanded by the public prosecutor. The Amsterdam court recently decided that C. may be extradited to Belgium because he may have been involved in the shooting of eleven-year-old Firdaous. The girl was killed last year in Antwerp, when the room where she was eating was shot with a Kalashnikov rifle. C., who was arrested in March 2024 , strongly denies any involvement.
