(NL Times) A 27-year-old woman from Den Bosch who is detained on suspicion of involvement with the attempted murder of an Iranian activist and journalist who is living in Haarlem denies knowing of the plans to assassinate him. “I expect the truth to come out that I knew of nothing and have nothing to do with it,” said Chahinez K. in the court in Schiphol on Thursday.
The Public Prosecution Service (OM) suspect K. of complicity in the attempted murder because she observed the intended victim’s home and took photos of it. She reported her findings to the alleged client, her ex-boyfriend, who is still a fugitive. According to OM, he told her to get a GPS tracker during her mission and was given instructions on how to place it under a car. She did this in exchange for payment. She confessed to the police that she observed the home.
