The newspaper AD (Algemeen Dagblad) in the Nederlands has the courage to publish on the 6th of October 2012 about Joris Demmink, top official in the Nerherlands who has planned to resign this month. Since 2003 Demmink is strongly suspected of sexual abuse of boys but apparently has held the Dutch justice system in his iron grip til now. During his office time he appointed many prosecutors. I can imagine them to be heavily influenced by Demmink. Let's hope justice will finally prevail and that the victims of childabuse will have more rights in the future as well in The Netherlands, the Dutch Carribean and Aruba (status aparte) which still has a mainly Dutch Public Ministry and Court.
I admire the fact that AD has been actively searching for wittnesses who can testify that Joris Demmink is involved in abuse and sex trafficing of minors. Formerly other newspapers have been threatened by the powerful top official. I wish the journalists and the editors of AD succes !
