(NL Times) The Public Prosecution Service (OM) is prosecuting a 42-year-old man from Tilburg and a mosque foundation for perjury, money laundering, and forgery. According to the OM, the man and the foundation he represented lied to a parliamentary committee investigating whether other countries were exerting influence on mosques in the Netherlands. They also refused to cooperate in the parliamentary inquiry, the OM said on Monday.
According to ANP, the suspect is imam Suhayb S. of the Utrecht alFitrah mosque. His 39-year-old wife will also be prosecuted for forgery. “The husband and wife jointly signed a letter to the committee containing partly incomplete and partly untrue information,” the OM said.
The OM pointed out that cooperating with a parliamentary inquiry is mandatory, and refusing to do so is punishable.
