According to Belgian media, he had his face changed beyond recognition by plastic surgery. The Dutchman is certainly not the first criminal who would have gone under the knife in an attempt to disappear from the radar. From the woman with the seven faces to the drug lord who was waiting for a nasty surprise on the operating table.
