Prosecution Seeks Juvenile Detention for Attack on Thierry Baudet
The Dutch Public Prosecution Service has demanded 138 days of youth detention for a 15-year-old boy who attacked Forum for Democracy leader Thierry Baudet with a beer bottle last year. The prosecution’s case hinges on evidence suggesting the attack was premeditated. A ruling from the Groningen court is expected in two weeks. Baudet, who suffered injuries from the attack during a campaign event, has described the attack as a ‘political assault’ against his party’s principles.
