Man (51) who threatened to blow up a neighborhood in Bad Nieuweschans does not have to go back to jail

The judge ruled that the man had diminished responsibility when he hung out of the window wearing a Darth Vader mask and shouted terrifying things into the neighborhood. The man will receive a prison sentence equivalent to his pre-trial detention: 106 days. Yet the man is not just thrown out on the street. He is staying in a closed institution and that is the right place for him, the judge ruled.
