Spanish justice has a huge fiasco behind it. But let’s get things right. First, the police’s anti-organized crime unit (GRECO) won praise for busting a big fish in the international cocaine business. On January 9, one of the heads of the Dutch-Moroccan Mocro Mafia, Karim Bouyakhrichan, nicknamed Taxi, was caught in Marbella. The Spanish Ministry of the Interior presented him as “the most wanted and most dangerous criminal of the Netherlands”.
The raid took place near the Marbella Municipal Court building and Bouyakhrichan claimed he planned to turn himself in to authorities. The police also arrested six other people on suspicion of participating in the laundering of more than six million dollars, which is supposed to come from the drug business on the Costa del Sol. Law enforcement officers seized 172 properties, including several mansions in Marbella worth more than $50 million, and froze 178 bank accounts with more than three million dollars. Bouyakhrichan ended up in custody due to fear of his escape.
But… the Provincial Court of Malaga ordered the release of Bouyakhrichan less than a month and a half after he was detained. At that time, the Spanish Supreme Court was still processing the request of the Dutch authorities to extradite Bouyakhrichan to the land of tulips on charges of drug trafficking there (a European arrest warrant had been issued in this case).
A high court judge also issued his own arrest warrant for Bouyakhrichan, but he had to cancel it. When he asked the provincial judge if he saw a problem with the extradition of the detainee to the Netherlands, he received a positive answer. The provincial judge justified this by the fact that the mafia capo was detained on suspicion of money laundering on Spanish soil, as well as drug trafficking and belonging to a criminal organization in that territory. He did not see fit to extradite him until he had been tried on these charges.
Meanwhile, Bouyakhrichan’s lawyers have appealed against the detention, which was decided by a court in Malaga. They argued that there is no risk of their client fleeing, as he has ties to Spain, where he allegedly lives with his partner. The prosecutor’s office objected: they claimed that the mobster had no roots in the country. His partner admitted that she lives in Dubai and visited Marbella only sporadically. According to prosecutors, Bouyakhrichan has enough money to escape justice. He is of Moroccan nationality, where he could try to escape (Morocco does not extradite its citizens to other countries). In the document, they specifically demanded that Bouyakhrichan be kept under lock and key while the Dutch extradition request is resolved.
Nevertheless, the Malaga Provincial Court upheld the appeal on February 22 and ordered his release. Although the three judges in the verdict acknowledged that there was a possibility of escape, they believed that they would prevent this with a bail of 50 thousand euros and the obligation to hand over the passport and report to the court every 15 days. Bouyakhrichan immediately posted bail and walked out of jail. The next day, he handed over his passport to the court and reported to the court regularly. Until April 1. When the judge of the supreme court found out that the mobster was released by the local court, he activated his arrest warrant again and summoned him. However, Bouyakhrichan did not appear.
By the way, his brother Samir lost his life in Spain. In August 2014, he was shot dead outside a bar in Benahavís, Malaga, while allegedly settling scores between Mocro Maffie clans.
The Mocro Maffia, operating in Belgium and especially the Netherlands, has members of Moroccan origin and controls a third of the cocaine business in Europe. Its people are linked to the murder of the prominent Dutch investigative journalist Peter de Vries, who was shot in broad daylight on the street in Amsterdam in July 2021.
A year later, the Dutch police were worried for the safety of the then 18-year-old Princess Catharina-Amalie, the future heir to the Dutch throne. As the media reported, it was supposed to be because of threats from members of the Mocro Maffia, which they sent to each other in encrypted form. While in prison in 2019, one of its leaders, Ridouan Taghi, exchanged letters with a friend that contained quotations from the Koran – police interpreted them as encrypted messages about a potential plot to attack or kidnap the princess. Taghi denied this through his lawyer, saying he would never harm a child.
When a party is a guarantor of expertise
His party colleague Peter Marko became the head of the analytical department in the Department of Labor, which is headed by Erik Tomáš za Hlas. He worked at the ministry for the last three years, before that he was the mayor of the village of Oponice in the district of Topoľčany for eight years. Although he has not yet officially worked in an analytical position, he claims that he has also done a lot of analytical work.
Marko did not directly tell us who approached him with the offer of a management position. Marko is a member of Hlas, his Facebook profile is full of photos from party meetings and shared posts of colleagues from Hlas.
“I have been a member of the Hlas-SD party since 2022, and I assess the Hlas-SD party as a constructive party with a clear vision, a professionally qualified personnel base, and a social-democratic orientation very close to me,” says Marko.
A firm hired for cybersecurity projects has lost its background check
KošiceIT company Lynx may at first glance resemble an ideal business story. It was founded shortly after the Gentle Revolution – it was founded in 1991. It was based in a block of flats in Košice. It gradually grew until it worked its way to a leading position among companies that provide services in the field of cyber security. The company’s biggest customer is the state, as it stated before the court. However, a turning point occurred in 2021, the company she came suddenly for a security clearance.
The publication of the new one has been suspended and everything indicates that it is due to a problem surrounding the taxation of advertising services. They were also supplied to the IT company by the advertising agency Roko, known from the Dobytkár corruption case. The Lynx company still does not have a background check, which can be verified atwebsite of the National Security Office.
Can a judge grab a judge by the neck?
A very unusual rift between two judges of the Supreme Court in the parking lot in front of the courthouse in Bratislava’s Petržalka is the reason for a disciplinary proposal, which one of them – the well-known judge Juraj Kliment – will face at the beginning of June.
As recently as last October, he got into a dispute over a parking space with his colleague Petr Paluda. There is a camera recording of the entire incident which published by TV Markíza. It shows Juraj Kliment stopping his vehicle in front of Petr Paluda’s car after passing through the barrier. Peter Paluda subsequently backed Kliment into the car.
Then both judges get out of the car and then Juraj Kliment grabs Petr Paluda by the neck. Kliment is accused of violating the Act on Judges – specifically the obligation to observe the principles of judicial ethics, including avoiding inappropriate behavior or demeanor.
At one of the press conferences dedicated to this judge, Prime Minister Robert Fico said that the Judicial Council of the National Assembly of the Slovak Republic and its chairman proposed to transfer Kliment to a lower court.
In this context, the Supreme Administrative Court turned to the Judicial Council with a request for an opinion on disciplinary proceedings. In it, he asks “whether and under what circumstances a physical attack by a judge (specifically grabbing the shirt under the neck) in relation to another judge in public can be considered a violation of the principles of judicial ethics.”
