Corné H., a 28-year-old man, has been sentenced to nine months in prison and mandatory treatment after holding four employees hostage in a café in Ede. The court ruled that while he was guilty of unlawful imprisonment and threats, there was no intent for ransom, leading to a lesser charge. Testimonies from victims highlighted the emotional impact of the incident, and it was revealed that H. had recently changed medication, prompting concerns from his parents. He will not serve time in prison but will be sent directly to a treatment facility.
