An investigation order was issued against the man. According to his own social media, he previously lived in the Argentinian city of Bahía Blanca, but would have lived in the Benito Juárez district in Mexico City. The Argentinian justice had already put a reward of 5 million peso – converted around 3500 euros – on his head, witness a detection poster with his photo that was spread.
According to South American media, the young victims are two sisters who had previously been adopted by his family. The 72-year-old Dutchman is accused of raping and abused both minors several times.
Already 10 years in prison for wife
His wife, who is only known under the initials Mal, had already been sentenced to ten years in prison for involvement in various crimes last year, including the beating of girls with various objects, which resulted in serious injuries. According to the suspicion, the Dutchman would also have been guilty of that. He would have beaten the girls with sticks, among other things.
Organizations that stand up for children’s rights are relieved after the arrest of the Dutch businessman. They emphasize the importance of bringing those who are guilty of such abuse and sexual abuse of minors to court as quickly as possible so that they can be convicted.
“The collaboration with Interpol was crucial in the battle for protection of minors and the prevention of impunity in cases of sexual abuse,” a data subject of the Dales VOZ organization reported.
The shocking abuse of the girls is said to have been committed between 2018 and 2022, according to the public prosecutor Diego Torres. An extradition procedure has since started.
