Judges in Amsterdam have released a man sentenced to four years in jail for his role in a violent prostitution gang, pending his appeal, news agency ANP reports on Thursday.
The decision has disappointed the public prosecution department and shocked victims, some of whom have now gone into hiding, ANP says.
‘We are strongly opposed to this,’ a department spokeswoman said. ‘The interests of society are more important than the personal interests of the suspect.’
Murat Ordu was jailed last year but has been freed to experience the birth of his child, the Telegraaf says. ‘There are no concrete indications that Ordu is a fight risk,’ advocate general Charles Wiegnant told the paper.
Ordu was part of a gang said to have forced over 20 women into prostitution in Amsterdam, The Hague, Alkmaar and Utrecht. Other members of the gang were jailed for six and five years.
