Clash
Moreover, the court takes the high that Amersfoort also financial turmoil and conflict with the municipality to brought outside.
Amersfoort made the whereabouts of Van der V. known to prevent escalation, but there was, according to the court is not enough reason for it.
In an attempt to gain control of the situation, Amersfoort far gone, says the judge. Because there was no evidence of social unrest or threat against the man, the church was wrong kinds of information disclosed in the opinion of the court at that time. Moreover Amersfoort organized a neighborhood meeting, police surveillance and drew up a telephone line open to complaints, although since the judge had no basis for. It had the congregation better fitted to be more reluctant to draw, says the judge.
