#22: De jacht op Bolle Jos | Rechtpraten de Podcast

#22: The Hunt for Bolle Jos | Rechtpraten de Podcast In this episode, Royce and Annemiek discuss the case of Jos Leijdekkers, better known as Bolle Jos, one of the most wanted criminals in the Netherlands. They delve into his role in the international cocaine trade, his conviction, and the massive asset forfeiture claim that could amount to over 221 million euros. Royce and Annemiek also dive into his life as a fugitive in Sierra Leone, where he appears to be walking around freely and is said to have ties to the president's family. What does that mean for his chances of extradition, and how does the Netherlands handle these kinds of diplomatic dilemmas? In doing so, they draw parallels with how Ridouan Taghi lived during the period he was a fugitive. This week's listener question: would Royce and Annemiek rather work in the Zuidas or continue as independent practitioners?
