Het Parool27 September · 07:272 hours ago

A 32-year-old man who shot a victim in the leg at a gas station on Zeeburgereiland in Amsterdam-Oost has been sentenced to 18 months in prison and conditional compulsory treatment (tbs). The judge ruled that the defendant consciously created a life-threatening danger, noting that the victim’s survival was not due to his actions. The incident occurred on October 8, 2025, after the defendant demanded the victim’s car keys and weapon. Evidence included fingerprints and DNA found on the firearm. The court considered two prior assaults by the defendant on October 7 and noted his history of psychotic disorders and cannabis addiction, leading to a sentence lower than the prosecutor's request of 24 months.
