Remove the judge for complete incompetence. How can someone be so fucking stupid lmao. 50,000 euros bail for a real-life Bond villain lol.
When his money laundering case came up for an initial hearing at the Provincial Court in Málaga last month, the presiding judge agreed to release the gang chief on a bail of €50,000. Bouyakhrichan, a billionaire who possesses bank accounts and properties around the world, promptly paid the cash and skipped town.
If it were just the paperwork not being filed, that'd be one thing, but given the low bail on someone who should obviously be a flight risk and the paperwork, I do kind of wonder whether that might be judicial corruption. I would hope that Spain would look into that.
Does the judge get to keep the bail money if they skip town or something? 😂
I'd be more them being paid via some back-channel.
Or he received pictures of his family along with a friendly yet vaguely threatening letter.
I won’t trudge into the ethics of the action, but I’ll be damned if regicide isn’t a cool word

Judicial mixup - $$$
Dutch Throne sounds like a sex toy, which is a pretty weird thing to inherit from your parents..
dutch throne
the act of taking a shit while placing a blanket over ones head, body, and toilet; while inhaling the potent fumes. (an upgrade from a dutch oven)

"You know what, Dad? I think I'll pass on your Dutch throne, thanks!"
This headline's such a mixed bag. Drugs are great but Lords are evil, Killing people is vile but fewer Heirs is a better world.
Common mistake, I accidentally released drug lord who planned to kill heir to Dutch throne twice last month!
Interesting: although the Dutch news outlets carry extensive messages about Karim B and his escape, none of them mention that it was him threatening Princess Amalia or PM Rutte. Amalia actually went to Spain to study because of the increased danger in Amsterdam. And then they find Karim B. also in Spain....
I wonder how credible this Politico article is and what the stories in Spanish outlets are.

Not sure about how the Spanish outlets are covering this, but overall Politico Europe has a high credibility rating and is scored "high" for factual reporting: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/politico-europe-bias/
Accidentally… ;)
It was not accidental. It was a bunch of reasonable decipns, and then a very stupid one
The Spanish are still holding a grudge against the descendants of William of Orange
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A notorious cartel boss who reportedly planned to murder the heir to the Dutch throne and Prime Minister Mark Rutte has escaped prison due to a judicial mix-up in Spain.
Upon learning of his detention, Dutch authorities filed an extradition request with Spain’s National Court, asking that the gang leader be sent back to the Netherlands to face charges related to his drug trafficking empire.
Dutch authorities appealed, filing a new, urgent request stressing that the cartel boss was one of Interpol’s most wanted criminals and that he was sought for his role in a decade-long, pan-continental drug war in which dozens of people were killed in Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain and Morocco.
Spain’s Cadena SER radio network on Tuesday revealed that although the National Court accepted the Dutch appeal, it neglected to issue a detention order that would have ensured Bouyakhrichan remained behind bars until the extradition was carried out.
In 2022 the Dutch Princess Amalia had to withdraw from her student housing complex and return to the royal palace after police obtained credible evidence indicating that Bouyakhrichan was planning to either kidnap or assassinate the heir to the throne.
The cartel boss’ release will likely require a reinforcement of security protocols enacted to protect her safety, as well as that of political leaders including caretaker Prime Minister Mark Rutte, who was reported by Dutch outlet De Telegraaf to be on Bouyakhrichan’s list of possible high-profile targets.
The original article contains 362 words, the summary contains 238 words. Saved 34%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
