(NL Times) PVV leader Geert Wilders will go to court on Tuesday to attend the trial against 37-year-old Pakistani cricket player Khalid Latif. According to the Public Prosecution Service (OM), Latif offered 21,000 euros for the parliamentarian’s murder via a video posted on the internet in 2018.
The OM is prosecuting the Pakistani for incitement to murder, sedition, and threats. The suspect is a well-known person in his home country, so the Dutch police recognized him in the videos. His case is being tried in the high-security court at Schiphol. Latif is not expected to attend his trial. According to the OM, he has not reported, and neither has a lawyer.
Wilders announced he would attend the case against the man “who put a price on my head.”
