Hanover/Mainz – Three days after the knife attack on a Syrian (27), the motif of the two alleged perpetrators is obviously clear.

Revenge for the daughter’s injured honor!

Two compatriots of the victim have been in custody since Tuesday: they are father (68) and son (27). Against the duo from Mainz (Rhineland-Palatinate) is determined for attempted manslaughter.

At the beginning of the week, both of them had been opened in the Stöcken district at noon, according to the KRIPO findings. Apparently they ambushed the 27-year-old near his residential address on Ithstrasse.

Armed with knives, they rushed towards the man and stabbed him on the street. Then they fled in a car. With life-threatening wounds in the upper body, among other things, the injured person was brought to a clinic.

Investigators arrested father and son in the Rhineland-Palatinate capital. Alleged background for their act: shortly before, the 27-year-old is said to have separated from the daughter or sister of the accused.

Both are now to be moved to a detention center in Hanover.

but has no extradition treaty with Pakistan

A purely symbolic move, and one that is against the spirit of the age. Denmark has already folded and submitted to Sharia blasphemy law. Sweden will soon follow. The turn of the Netherlands will come in due time.

Twelve years in prison for attempting to provoke the murder of Geert Wilders

Translated from “Twaalf jaar cel voor poging uitlokken moord Geert Wilders,” 

De Telegraaf, September 11, 2023:

SCHIPHOL – Khalid Latif, a Pakistani former cricketer, has been sentenced to twelve years in prison for offering the equivalent of 21,000 euros for the murder of Geert Wilders. He did this from Pakistan in 2018 via a video on the internet, in response to a cartoon competition about the Prophet Mohammed devised by the Member of Parliament.

The court of The Hague, which sat in the extra-secure court at Schiphol, called it “far from inconceivable that someone would feel called to respond to the call.” The sentence corresponds to the prosecutor’s demand at the end of last month.

At the time the video was released, there were protests in Pakistan against the cartoon contest. The court states that the man “added fuel to the fire” with the video. It is also noted that the former cricketer enjoyed “a certain international fame.” The Public Prosecution Service previously mentioned that his call had a wide reach.

No extradition treaty

The Netherlands does not have an extradition treaty with Pakistan, which means that Latif will not be extradited to the Netherlands. Latif did not come to the hearing for the hearing of his case, nor did a lawyer. Wilders was present at both the hearing of the case and the ruling. In response to the verdict, he says that he is “very happy,” but that he will only be really happy when Latif ends up behind bars.

In a statement at the end of last month, he spoke extensively in court about the impact of the death threats he receives. “I don’t need pity, but I do want you to understand what this means for me and my family. Because of all those fatwas, I have been living under heavy security for nineteen years. It started in 2004 with the then Hofstad Group. I’ve never been home since. I have lived in a prison, a barracks, a police station. And to this day, my wife and I live in a safe house.”…
