' Higher penalty had Vermeer-pop does not prevent '

"But he will never get that punishment," says football lawyer Christian fisherman. "Even though the public prosecutor demands the maximum penalty, the judges find in Netherlands which apparently always too high. No one gets such a punishment in Netherlands for threat, so even if something happens in a stadium. "

GUN call Director Bert van oostveen to football hooligans to be punished harder so there is little point. Visser: "Than does the judge not: Gee, the KNVB wants higher penalties, so that we are going to do. He compares it just with the sentences that he imposes on the rest of the week. For example, someone with a gun, a half year cell imposed. " According to the directive term stadium ban by the KNVB will get the offender in addition a stadium ban of up to three years and a fine of 450 euros.

Fisherman eight chances the at a stadium ban and fine. Criminal prosecution for threat is as good as impossible. "There is only talk of threat as could arise at the threatened the reasonable fear that the crime that was threatened would actually be committed. Having regard to the facts and circumstances, I don't think the fear could arise at Vermeer that he would lose his life. The supporter can therefore not be successfully prosecuted for threat. That is something tasteless, does not mean that it is also punishable. "

Járen in Netherlands is already called to higher penalties. This is often referred to England, where again a misbehaving fans sometimes Stadium in May and sky-high fines imposed. Football lawyer Visser does not believe in the deterrent effect of such measures.

"Of course I can not move in the boy that the Vermeer-pop hung up, but I don't think he has made the following consideration: as I have a three-year stadium ban for get do I do it though, if seven years is on, then I do not know. He realized that he could probably not even picked up. "

ACQUITTED in his collar was caught, was due to the cameras that hang in the Amsterdam ArenA. But not every stadium in Netherlands has such a modern system. "The images that are created in the cockpit are much less sharp," said Visser. "So there were acquitted because fans could not be determined whether they actually had thrown with Fireworks."

The jungle sounds of ADO Den Haag fans direction A.m Riechedly Bazoer, the death threat to Feyenoord player Marko Vejinovic and the Vermeer-pop in the ArenA; After the winter break was during each matchday in the Eredivisie. The KNVB is with the hands in the hair, because of the image of the League. According to Visser is in any case a plus that in all cases, perpetrators are arrested. , That was at FC Utrecht earlier this season otherwise after fans had made himself guilty of anti-Semitic texts. In that area, there is at least progress has been made. "
