The examining magistrate extended their detention by fourteen days on Thursday. The other suspects in the investigation come from the Rotterdam and Den Bosch area.
Financial detectives from the national criminal investigation department tracked down the five after a tip about a series of suspicious transactions. It was suspected that payments from scrap dealers were made on invoices for which there was no service or delivery. In September 2020, the police already raided several locations and carried out searches as part of the investigation.
