Holleeder lashes out one last time at sister Astrid | Inland

It is the last time that de Nose was allowed to speak for the time being, and he mainly took the opportunity to compliment the court extensively. “I can’t believe how you read everything. Even what I hadn’t read yet. I am happy about that.”

But he also gave his sister Astrid and the court a blow. The court was “biased”, and his sister Astrid directed the entire process, says Holleeder. He also accused his sister of withholding conversation recordings that would be exculpatory for him. “She just didn’t give it.”

Sore point

A sore point for him is still his conviction for the murder of his brother-in-law Cor van Hout, the husband of his sister Sonja. According to Holleeder, it is established that crown witness Fred Ros did that and lies about it. ,,It is incomprehensible to me that I have been sitting here with Cor’s murderer, while I was convicted for it. Fred Ros is the killer, but he’s just roaming free. I don’t think that’s possible.”

Both Ros and the other key witness Peter la Serpe “are not stupid people”, according to Holleeder, who read part of his last word from a carelessly written note that trembled in his hands. ,,They are all the same. They all want money, not sitting. I have trouble with that.”

The court will rule on June 24.
