Prosecutors Seek 12-Year Sentence in Major Corruption Case Involving Grave Violence
Amsterdam civil servant Jim B. is accused of illegally querying and selling personal data to underworld informants, facilitating at least 95 attacks including explosions and shootings. Prosecutors allege he conducted hundreds of queries monthly, targeting high-profile individuals and criminals' relatives, earning €50 per address. The Public Prosecution Service seeks a 12-year prison term for B., who denies the charges despite evidence of significant financial gain. Two information brokers, Rishi K. and Gillian H., face 10-year sentences each for reselling this data to criminals involved in violent conflicts.
