Man Fell into Inferno with Floor After Drug Lab Explosion: 'Thought I Was Dying'
A Rotterdam court is examining whether suspect Jalal O. can be held responsible for three deaths caused by a January 29, 2024 explosion at his warehouse. The Public Prosecution Service alleges O. knew of an illicit drug lab involving acetone, but he denies knowledge, claiming the space was sublet to victim Mustafa. Forensic evidence found acetone containers and photos showing fuming buckets, yet no DNA or direct communication links O. to the lab. Victims described catastrophic damage, including a man falling through his floor into fire and neighbors suffering PTSD. On Tuesday, prosecutors will present their sentencing request regarding the liability for the fatalities.
