THE HAGUE: United Arab Emirates authorities have arrested the oldest son of Dutch drug kingpin Ridouan Taghi, with the Netherlands asking for his extradition, Dutch prosecutors said on Monday.
The police in Dubai arrested Ridouan Taghi’s oldest son, Faissal, early last month, sources told De Telegraaf. Like his father, Faissal is suspected in the Netherlands of participation in a drug-trafficking criminal organization and money laundering, among other things. His interrogation revealed new suspicions against Dutch lawyers, according to the newspaper.
