The Justice Department considers the files important enough to let the examining magistrate make a decision about them. According to lawyer Serge Weening, suspect Thijs H. has no problem with his data being shared with the Justice Department.
Images of stabbing
The case has previously gone to court for additional information. That case involved footage of a stabbing incident at Mondriaan mental health institution. The examining magistrate decided then that Mondriaan did not have to hand over the footage.
