A 21-year-old man from Best was arrested on Thursday because he would have threatened writer and columnist Lale Gül. He did that together with a 26-year-old man from Purmerend who was already arrested on Tuesday.
The police report that several declarations of the online threats have been made and do not exclude multiple arrests. ‘I am pleased that these people – who limit my freedom on a daily basis and make my life very complicated and acidify – receive their earned wages. Police, thanks, “writes Gül on X.
The Turkish-Dutch Gül (27) has become known for its debut novel ‘I am going to live’, in which she writes about the oppression of growing up in a strict-Islamic family.
Four years ago she was also threatened by a 19-year-old man. This man was then sentenced to seven months of juvenile detention.
