Something Rotten in the States of Holland and Turkey

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte is in Istanbul this week to meet with his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with a large retinue of Dutch CEOs in tow. The aim is to boost bi-lateral economic ties between the two NATO allies, which are now valued at over €5.5 billion a year.

Highly unlikely to figure in the official talking points is any mention of lawsuits that were brought against a Dutch citizen by two Turkish citizens — Mustafa Y. and Osman B – in 2008 and 2010, respectively, and which still have not been taken up by Dutch or Turkish prosecutors.

Why the delay in prosecuting the case? Perhaps because the plaintiff — Mr. Joris Demmink, former Secretary General of the Royal Dutch Ministry of Security and Justice — was, until his retirement two weeks ago, the Netherlands’ highest ranking law enforcement official.

Rebecca Project for Human Rights Condemns the Dutch Government’s Honoring Accused Pedophile Joris Demmink’s Retirement
and Calls Upon Dutch Authorities to Arrest Demmink, Freeze His Retirement Pension Fund Pending Investigation, and Empanel an Independent Commission to Investigate the Cover-up

“While the United States and United Kingdom have come to grips on the issue of pedophilia, with the recent investigations of Jerry Sandusky and Jimmy Savile, respectively, the Dutch have done just the opposite with its own infamous, accused pedophile – former Dutch Justice Ministry Secretary General Joris Demmink. Although it must be a relief for Queen Beatrix and the Dutch government to rid themselves of the embarrassment associated with accused pedophile Demmink, he should never have been honored with a retirement ceremony befitting an honorable and loyal Dutch civil servant. With this honor of Demmink, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and the Dutch government have brought shame to the Netherlands, tarnished the reputation of the government and its civil service, and dishonored those who were victimized by Joris Demmink in the Netherlands and Turkey. Although damage has been done with Demmink’s retirement ceremony, Queen Beatrix and the Dutch government can still make amends. They can right the wrong of allowing an accused pedophile to oversee the very Justice Ministry that was empowered to investigate the accusations of sexual abuse and rape against him. First, the Dutch government can arrest Joris Demmink so he is not able to flee the Netherlands and live out his retirement in a country that will not extradite him back to the Netherlands, should a future Dutch government have the moral fortitude to finally investigate his actions. Second, the Dutch government can order that Dutch pension APG freeze Demmink’s retirement funds until a full and thorough investigation is completed by Dutch authorities. At a time when the Dutch government is struggling to pay pension allotments to honorable Dutch government workers, few would complain if the pension belonging to accused pedophile Demmink is eventually used to fund a relief account for those he victimized.

“Finally, Queen Beatrix and the Dutch government should immediately empanel an independent commission, which includes at least one child advocate from abroad as well as law enforcement from abroad, to investigate the role of senior government officials in the Netherlands in the enabling and covering up of Demmink’s crimes and obstruction of justice, with the stated purpose that, if it is found that senior officials have covered for Demmink, they be criminally prosecuted along with him. Time is running out for Queen Beatrix and the Dutch government. The reputation of the Netherlands hangs in the balance of whether accused pedophile Joris Demmink faces justice, or if he walks free with a lifetime pension to fund his lifestyle of perversion and child rape.”

Amerikanen dreigen Rutte vanwege toedekken affaire Demmink

Een Amerikaanse mensenrechtenorganisatie onderzoekt de mogelijkheden on in de VS te procederen tegen de Nederlandse regering en haar ambtenaren voor medeplichtigheid aan de affaire Demmink.
“Nederlandse en Turkse topambtenaren zijn zowel actief als passief medeplichtig bij het de toedekken van de pedofiliebeschuldigingen tegen de voormalige secretaris-generaal van Justitie, Joris Demmink.” Dat laat vandaag de Rebecca Project weten, een mensenrechtenorganisatie, die van de affaire Demmink een speerpuntproject voor de bestrijding van pedofilie heeft gemaakt. “De Nederlandse justitiële autoriteiten zijn doorgegaan met het negeren van deze beschuldigingen”, aldus de Amerikaanse organisatie. “Turkse autoriteiten hebben de slachtoffers van Demminks misdaden geïntimideerd. Terwijl de VS en Groot-Brittannië actief geprobeerd hebben met recent onderzoek naar pedofilie zaken op te lossen, hebben de Nederlandse en Turkse regering de beweerdelijke verkrachtingsslachtoffers van Demmink nog meer tot slachtoffer gemaakt. Dit moet ophouden.”

Verder zegt Yvonne ergens in een reactie dat Demmink géén lintje kreeg, alleen een feestje… 🙁
