The 42-year-old Michael B. has been sentenced by the court in The Hague to a 10-year prison sentence for possession of weapons and the detonation of two hand grenades in the center of Delft. The attacks in May of last year focused on 2 cannabis coffeeshops, The Game and The Future. A passer-by was injured in the face.

The prosecution had demanded 12 years in prison. Two weeks ago, fellow suspect Dean P. (24) heard 8 years in prison. P. was acquitted by the court on Friday for the attacks on the coffeeshops. He does have to be in jail for 21 months for possession of weapons and influence of a witness.

Michael B. has a long criminal record. In 2002 he was sentenced to 16 years in prison for the so-called Irish bathtub murder . The Irish Damien Monaghan and the brothers Vincent and Morgan Costello were shot. Their bodies were cut into pieces in a bathtub and set on fire.

Ridouan Taghi is protected by Iran because they killed enemies of the regime it seems he stays in that country.

'Victim shooting Amsterdam is a member of underworld family'

Oct. 27 2019 in INTERIOR

AMSTERDAM - The 29-year-old Brennan Dalfour who was shot dead in the night from Saturday to Sunday in the Jacob Krausstraat in Amsterdam-Slotervaart is the brother of Marlon Dalfour, who was disabled in August 2009 due to a murder attempt by the 'tattookillers'.

Het Parool reports that. According to the newspaper, the family has a strong reputation in the Amsterdam underworld.

A third brother, Michael, suffered a spinal cord injury in the same year due to a shooting in front of Club Zebra Lounge in the Leidsebuurt

Their cousin Brian 'Dalla' Dalfour, then president of the Amsterdam chapter of motorcycle gang No Surrender, was shot dead in October 2015 together with Macedonian Muljaim Nadzak in a holiday home in Hooge Zwaluwe.

The family also had ties with Gwenette Martha, an underworld leader, who was liquidated in Amstelveen in May 2014.

All those guys are living most of the time in Marbella.

Brennan Dalfour (29), shot dead on Sunday, was preparing a hit in Diemen in 2011. According to Het Parool, the idea was that he had been working on it together with Jair Wessels and Omar T.

The Amsterdam criminal Jair Wessels was liquidated in 2017 and Omar T. was sentenced to two years in prison in 2015 for the grenade attack on the Amsterdam court.

Wessels was most likely killed on the orders of the Taghi group.

@Hollander

Do you have an idea whether the former Ajax players that got into the dope and extortion rackets like Mike Offenbach and Donny Huysen are still in business in Amsterdam?

Mike Offenberg I haven't heard about him in recent years but he's in his early 40s so I don't think he has retired has been linked with his brother Robbie to the coke business in the past. Huysen lives in Marbella so my guess he is still involved in shady stuff everybody over there is lol.

Another lawyer shot!

https://nltimes.nl/2019/11/06/threatened-enschede-lawyer-knows-men-shot-report

LMAO yeah when a Dutchman moves to Marbella - as it is with an Englishman, Irishman or Scotsman - you can't help but think there's something shady going on.

It's unbelievable look at all those Sunseeker yachts in Puerto Banus and the Spanish authorities never bother them it all started with the former mayor of Marbella Jesús Gil y Gil.

TKJ, Ecstasy is among our finest export products next to Tulips, Cheese and DJs hehe..

A man was shot dead on the Putsebocht in Rotterdam. No arrests have yet been made.
Police say witnesses have seen a "dark-clad man" run away.
The police did not report anything about the identity of the victim and the circumstances of the incident.

Lol yeah in some parts of Spain they're happy to provide a safe space for European OC in general. Spanish OC itself is not a big time thing; it's like the Spanish themselves have their smugglers in Galicia and Andalusia as well as some gypsy drug dealers, but when you take the bigger picture none of them are major players. Some of the Spanish LE on the other hand are dirty as hell: an OC group throws some cash and hookers their way and they're good.

Gangster's Paradise ! Under Jesús Gil in the 90s you also had many Russians and Italians. Also Saudi's the Khashoggi family occupied one of the largest villa estates in Marbella, called Baraka, hosting lavish parties.

BRABANT "CRIMINAL FAMILY NETWORK" ARRESTED IN OSS; MACHINE GUNS, DRUGS SEIZED

The police tackled what they call a "criminal family network" in Oss, Noord-Brabant on Wednesday. Three men, believed to be the leaders of this criminal network, were arrested. During searches at a caravan camp and other places in Oss, the police found and confiscated automatic firearms, drugs and cash. Possible explosives were also found.

At around 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, a police SWAT team forced a car off Hoogheuvelstraat and arrested the driver, a 48-year-old man from Oijen. At around the same time, two men aged 55 and 26 were arrested at the nearby caravan camp, also by a SWAT team. They form part of the same family.

"An extensive and long-term criminal investigation into the criminal family has revealed that the three leaders of this family are involved in drug trafficking on a large scale, in which serious violence and intimidation are not shied away from", the police said in a statement. The three men are also suspected of membership to a criminal organization, and illegal firearm possession. They are in restricted custody, which means they are only allowed contact with their lawyers.

Omroep Brabant identifies one of the suspects as Martien R. from Oijen, calling him the "Godfather of Brabant". According to the broadcaster, he is suspected of multiple assassinations and attacks.

The police closed down the caravan camp on Hoogheuvelstraat and the area around it for investigation. "We think that the criminal activities of the family were planned at this camp", the police said. The camp and other areas in Oss will be combed for cash, drugs and firearms. This thorough search is expected to take multiple days, so alternative accommodation was arranged for the residents of the caravan camp.

During the searches on Wednesday, the police found and confiscated multiple automatic firearms, other firearms, hard drugs, and cash from multiple places. In one hidden area, possible explosives were found on Wednesday afternoon. Experts from the Ministry of Defense's explosive removal department were called in to investigate.

The police will only release more details about the results of this extensive raid, involving over 100 cops, at a later time. "The searchers are still ongoing and an inventory has yet to be made", the police said.

^ I thought these guys were untouchable...

They only arrested Reuvers, but the others, at least three big players, are still free. Martien became too high profile with all that violence and keeping all those pills and weapons nearby wasn't really smart either. They are suspected of being involved in the transport of one hundred kilos of MDMA, Martien would also have imported more than 1500 kilos of cocaine and once more than 300 kilos of cocaine.
He was a suspect in various major cases in recent years, but in most cases he was acquitted. Or he got away with a light punishment. Or cases were not prosecuted because the chance of a conviction was too small.

The 40-year-old drug lord Dennis V . from Landgraaf was found dead in his cell in Brazil. According to local media, he committed suicide. The organization led by the Dutchman is suspected of large-scale drug trafficking, he was arrested in Brazil in August.

Yeah I'd be hard pressed to think that they're done. It's a large family with an even larger network. Possibly talking hundreds. So they're still up and running.
I know they had a well publicized feud with Albert K. and his family.

One of the last men standing Robert Mink Kok aka the thinker, was followed in Lebanon by the new crime show Narcostaat.

Well, Mink is right. As usual.

And he's looking great he's 58.

TWO DETAINED IN AMSTERDAM DEFENSE ATTORNEY'S SLAYING
By Zack Newmark on November 19, 2019 - 21:52

Police detained two persons of interest connected to the murder of criminal defense attorney Derk Wiersum. The arrests were announced on television show Opsporing Verzocht on Tuesday night.

The duo were taken into custody for their possible roles in fencing a stolen vehicle allegedly used to monitor Wiersum shortly before he was killed. They were questioned and released, police said.

The attorney and father of two was shot dead in September while standing in front of his Amsterdam-Buitenveldert home with his wife. One person was previously arrested in the case about the same time police discovered a white Opel Combo found in Almere that was used as the getaway car.

He was representing Nabil B. at the time, a crown witness in the so-called Marengo Trials. The legal process involves 16 suspects in a string of homicides, assassination attempts, and murder plots.

The police asked for the public's help a week ago to identify people linked to the three stolen vehicles, including a Volkswagen Transporter and a Renault Megane. Authorities received 37 tips after the show was aired.

There were also raids in Friesland in the north of the netherlands.

EXPLOSIVE FOUND IN RAIDS AGAINST BRABANT ORGANIZED CRIME FAMILY
By Janene Pieters on November 21, 2019 - 12:40

On Thursday the police continued raids against the "Godfather of Noord-Brabant" Martien R. and his family by closing down and searching a caravan park in Lith. The intensive search was stalled by the discovery of an explosive. Police officers asked members of the press to stay at a distance while explosive experts from the Ministry of Defense were called in to investigate, Omroep Brabant and De Telegraaf report.

This investigation, called operation Alfa, really got going last week with the arrests of R., his brother and his son, and raids on a caravan park in Oss. There too the police found an explosive.

The three men arrested last week are still in custody. They are suspected of large-scale drug dealing, illegal weapons possession, and participation in a criminal organization. During searches in Oss, the police found a large number of firearms, including automatic firearms, drugs, and cash.

Investigators expect to find similar contraband while searching the caravan park in Lith.

According to the Telegraaf, operation Alfa is the largest operation against the Noord-Brabant criminal underworld to date. The province forms the heart of synthetic drug production in the Netherlands.

Once again, the Brabant detectives encountered a large arsenal of weapons in Oss. A large amount of machine guns and Kalashnikovs were discovered in a delivery van at a warehouse on a business park. The police are investigating whether they are from the "crime family" R.

NET CLOSING AROUND RIDOUAN TAGHI; AUTHORITIES FOCUSED ON ISLAND IN PERSIAN GULF: REPORT
By Janene Pieters on November 27, 2019 - 08:29

Riduouan Taghi, considered the most wanted fugitive criminal in the Netherlands, is likely staying on Kish - an island in the Persian Gulf, an about two-hour boat ride from Dubai, the Telegraaf reports based on "multiple sources" within and outside the investigative services. The Netherlands has no extradition treaty with Kish.

In July the Telegraaf wrote that Taghi was "almost certainly" hiding in Dubai.

Taghi and the drug-centered criminal organization he allegedly runs were linked to at least nine assassinations and a series of failed or never implemented murder plots by Nabil B., a criminal turned key witness. B.'s lawyer Derk Wiersum was murdered at his home in Amsterdam in September. The authorities believe he was killed because he was representing the key witness.

Last month newspaper AD reported that Ridouan Taghi is part of a "super cartel" that controls around a third of the cocaine trade in Europe. Other members of this cartel include leaders from the Italian, Irish and Bosnian mafias, the newspaper wrote based on verified documents in its possession.

The Public Prosecutor also linked Taghi to outlaw motorcycle gang Caloh Wagoh. In a hearing last month against 12 members of the biker gang, suspected of involvement in at least three assassinations, the Prosecutor said that it has evidence Taghi ordered Caloh Wagoh to commit murders on his behalf.

Yes Albert ordered the murder of Martien's cousins Koos and Martin Reuvers which was exposed in the TV show of Peter de Vries unlike most of the gangs today the traveler crime families like Reuvers, Kraus, Baum, Netten go back at least 100 years.

Any idea how powerful Kraus (or some of the other families) are compared to Reuvers?

Koos Reuvers was the right hand of Johan Verhoek so I would say they are at the top in the underworld they raided his camp in Lith last week but I think he lives near Marbella most of the time. The other families alle have big networks so difficult to say how strong they are. Another family are the Pfaffs yvon Pfaff a Belgian was killed some years ago he was from Ochten not far from Oss. They are related to Jean-Marie Pfaff.

Naima Jillal (52), who disappeared without a trace in October from Amsterdam, was active at the highest level in the cocaine business, writes De telegraaf on the basis of various sources. Jillal operated from the Spanish city of Malaga as a sort of 'drug broker' and brought top criminals together for business, the newspaper said.

The missing woman appears in a long-running investigation into international coke trade and money laundering. She would be a key player in this.

Earlier, the police confirmed that the disappearance of Jillal may be related to a conflict in the underworld .

Jillal has disappeared since Sunday 20 October in the Amsterdam Zuidas. She got into a dark car at around 21:30 that evening at the intersection of Gustav Mahlerlaan with Leonard Bernsteinstraat. That was near her home.

Several suspects were arrested in the case, but these were also released .
