Dutch ATM robbers increasingly targeting machines far across the border
Dutch robbers are increasingly targeting ATMs far across the border. "In addition to ecstasy, the ATM robbers can also be added to the list of Dutch export products such as cheese and tulips," warns Wösten. It is significant that Dutch criminals were most likely involved in all 180 explosions that ravaged North Rhine-Westphalia last year, the German state that borders the Netherlands. Increase in explosive raids In recent years, the Explosives Clearance Service Defense has been increasingly busy finding or dismantling explosives that criminals use in explosive raids. Last year, 31 cases were brought to the NFI by the police and the Public Prosecution Service involving bombs made by criminals themselves, almost three times higher than a year earlier.
