(NL Times) Muslim Rights Watch Nederland is suing the Dutch state over a Tilburg man who has been in custody in Spain for over six weeks on terrorism accusations. According to the organization, the state has taken no action to get the man released and is therefore guilty of negligence. It filed the suit on Wednesday, NOS reports.
The Dutch-Moroccan man was arrested during his holiday in Spain over six weeks ago on suspicion of belonging to a jihadist group in Arnhem, where he grew up. According to his lawyer, the man unjustly ended up on a list of potential terrorism suspects that the Dutch authorities shared with Interpol years ago.
