Wow..

The key witness in the major winding-up process that started this summer has canceled his contract with the Justice Department on protection. That is what De Telegraaf writes. It is about Nabil B., whose innocent brother was shot in Amsterdam last year, a few months after the Public Prosecution Service announced that B. would testify in the trial.

The main suspect in that so-called Marengo trial is Ridouan Taghi, who is a fugitive and most likely to be abroad. He is associated by the judiciary with a series of liquidations.

According to the newspaper, Nabil B. feels cheated by the Witness Protection Team (TGB) of justice and would refuse to work with the team any longer. The breach would have already occurred in April. Attempts to restore the relationship would have failed.

Transfer
The dissatisfaction is said to be in the short term that he would be transferred to a normal prison. He is currently staying on a heavily secured wing within the prison complex in Vught.

Neither the Public Prosecution Service nor the lawyer of B. wants to comment against De Telegraaf. The newspaper writes that it is unclear what the consequences are for the process. B. has already made many statements, but may in the future refuse to give additional testimonials or be heard again.
