Netherlands – conviction for making funds available to designated person under Dutch sanctions

The District Court of Rotterdam has convicted an individual on one count of making funds (€350) available to a person designated under the Dutch Terrorism Sanctions Regulations 2007.

The defendant was acquitted of another charge of making funds available to ISIS on the basis of a lack of evidence that the defendant knew the recipient was connected with ISIS and because the transfer had taken place after ISIS had been largely defeated in Syria.

The individual was sentenced to 60 hours of community service, although this time had already been performed by virtue of a lengthy pre-trial detention.
