For the District Court in Breda, the prosecutor claimed 14 years in prison for manslaughter against the former Rotterdam drug lord Kobus Lorsé (73) for the murder of his son-in-law John Wassink (45). Justice thinks that Lorsé shot dead Wassink in July 2014.
That would have happened on the grounds of the car company in Roosendaal where Wassink lived in his caravan. The body of Wassink was packed on July 28 in a blue sail found in the Markkanaal near Breda. Blood traces have been found in the bedroom and on the side of a mattress Lorsé's DNA. Lorsé denies involvement in the murder and points the accusing finger towards a business partner of Wassink, who in his opinion is also responsible for the disappearance of the Belgian Jelle Leemans.
