The defense of Willem Holleeder had the court last week asked the TO responsibility to take. The reason was that both sisters since the end of July in an old case regarding the criminal legacy of Sonja’s former spouse and Holleeders co-Heineken kidnapper Cor van Hout invoked their right to remain silent. Last week it was after months that she still has questions to answer.
‘Request is premature’
The lawyers of Holleeder wanted TO know if there are arrangements with the sisters are made, and if so, which ones, but the court called that request “premature.” Astrid and Sonja Holleeder have incriminating statements against their brother. The 'top criminal' suspected of involvement in a series of criminal settlements, including that Of Wood.
His advisers, caught Thursday also bot with the court when it comes to the testimony of his former girlfriend Sandra den Hartog, who, like the sisters burdensome about Holleeder has declared. Den Hartog is a suspect in a FIOD investigation, and also on her right professions.
Decision of an officer of justice
Holleeders lawyers wanted the court TO order would give within a month to take a decision about the possible criminal prosecution of Den Hartog to prevent the trial of Holleeder again delayed. But according to the court, is the decision to prosecute “exclusively reserved” to the officer of justice.
Aanklaagster Sabine Tammes got Thursday from the court is still inconclusive or Willem Holleeder himself at the end of march as a witness can be heard. The court will, in consultation with both defense first, a plan for the further process. That happens beginning next year.
The trial against Willem Holleeder, 17 February further.
