Actor Raymi Sambo was sentenced by the court in Amsterdam on Wednesday to a hundred hours of community service for the mistreatment of a woman during the last turn of the year. A spokesperson for the court reports to NU.nl that compensation of 6,310 euros must also be paid.
This amount is claimed for loss of income and immaterial damage of the victim. The verdict is in accordance with the requirement of the public prosecutor.
Earlier it was announced that the Public Prosecution Service (OM) did not want to reach a settlement, “because the public prosecutor finds the facts too serious and therefore wants to submit them to the court”.
The victim was assisted by lawyer Sébas Diekstra. He states on behalf of his client that she is “satisfied” with the statement. “The verdict of the police judge does justice to the case and the consequences for the client and her family. She hopes to be able to leave the case behind after today.”
Sambo has previously admitted that an incident occurred during the turn of the year. The actor has expressed regret, saying that both he and the victim were drunk at the time of his action. The woman filed a complaint on January 2. She disputes the allegation that she was drunk at the time of the alleged assault.
According to the woman, she and the actor were at a private party during the turn of the year. Sambo wanted to go home, but the victim and a friend of the actor insisted that he stay a little longer. After a discussion, the woman is said to have said to Sambo: “Let’s start 2020 nice.” Then he would have slapped her.
Sambo is known for roles in All Stars in SpangaS and is active as a theater maker with his own company VIG.
