Lawyers of suspects in the liquidation process Marengo lashed out hard on Tuesday at the Public Prosecution Service (OM) in the Amsterdam court. The reason is the conclusion of the judiciary that secret information has been leaked by lawyers.
“An absolute low point in the operation of the Public Prosecution Service,” said Christian Flokstra, one of the lawyers named by the prosecution as a person who would have passed on information.
The public prosecutor reiterated on Tuesday the harsh observation that “lawyers arranged and paid by Ridouan T. have shared information from the 26Koper file with the organization of T., even during the restrictions,” the prosecutor said without mentioning specific names.
Flokstra pointed out that these conclusions were drawn on the basis of messages sent with encrypted telephones “while there are many demonstrable inaccuracies in the PGP messages and the police report that are here today without any restraint, without further investigation, without reply, as conclusion, “said the lawyer.
According to Flokstra, the Public Prosecution Service should have gone to the Dean if lawyers suspected wrongdoing. De Deken supervises the observance of rules of conduct by lawyers. The fact that this did not happen can, according to counsel, have no other reason than “smearing” the defense.
Lawyer Yassine Bouchikhi said earlier Tuesday that he has been defamation. He is also mentioned as a lawyer who would have passed on information. Lawyer Nico Meijering even described the words of the OM as a “declaration of war”.

Conclusions shared with the legal profession regulator
The OM says it has added the information about the lawyers to the file because the messages endorse the statements of the crown witness and thus demonstrate his reliability.
According to the judiciary, their findings have now been shared with the Dekens in Amsterdam and the central Netherlands.
