In the ongoing lawsuit against Sywert van Lienden regarding a controversial mask deal with the Dutch government, new evidence suggests that he and his associates aimed to profit from the deal from the outset. Communications revealed during the trial indicate discussions about fraud and becoming multimillionaires through the deal. The Dutch State is seeking to recover nearly 30 million euros, alleging misuse of a charity organization to conduct the transaction for profit, contradicting claims of non-profit intentions.
