Measures needed to stop pedophiles going abroad, MP's say

February 21, 2019

A majority of MP's back the idea of confiscating the passports of convicted pedophiles so they cannot travel abroad, the Telegraaf said [Dutch only] on Thursday.

This, MP's say, would prevent them going on to abuse children in countries such as Thailand and Cambodia. Judges can now impose a travel ban but rarely do, the paper said.

The call, backed by MP's from the coalition VVD and CDA, the anti-Islam PVV and the Labor party, follows the case of Hans V, a convicted pedophile in the Netherlands who went on to abuse young girls at an orphanage he founded in Kenya.

‘There is a reason why the law allows for long-term supervision,’ Christian Democrat MP Madeleine van Toorenburg told the paper. ‘But if sex offenders have a normal passport, that law is vulnerable.’

‘We want to be sure that pedophiles cannot strike again abroad,’ said Labor MP Attje Kuiken.
 
Not quite.

As the article states: "the law allows for long-term supervision" which means within the Netherlands there are regulations and supervising bodies who follow and coach these convicted pedophiles after their release from prison, and sometimes give or arrange treatment too (psychologically or otherwise) either voluntary or compulsory.

Obviously, this only works within the country itself and not abroad.

Moreover, it's not foolproof nor watertight. That much I will grant you... :-)
 
Some other cases have emerged:

Amstelveen man, 72, arrested for child sex abuse in Nepal

Amstelveen man, 72, arrested for child sex abuse in Nepal

By Janene Pieters on February 27, 2019 - 07:30

A 72-year-old man from Amstelveen was arrested on suspicion of sexually abusing children in Nepal, the Public Prosecutor announced after the man's arraignment on Tuesday. He was arrested by the Koninklijke Marechaussee last week, when he arrived at Schiphol returning from Nepal.

The man was remanded into custody for two weeks on Tuesday. He is suspected of having, making and importing child- and animal pornography, as well as sexually abusing minors in Nepal. The Dutch authorities received information from that country about the man's involvement in child sex tourism. Terre des Hommes was also monitoring the man in Nepal and tipped off the Dutch police when he came to the Netherlands.

Child pornography was found on the man's phone. A special police team searched his home and confiscated data carriers, which also contained child pornography.

Over the past years, multiple Dutch people were arrested and convicted for abusing young children in Nepal. Last year a 66-year-old child psychiatrist from the Friesland village of Makkinga was arrested after he was caught having sex with a 15-year-old boy in a guesthouse in Katmandu. His 77-year-old sister was also arrested for offering the 15-year-old boy a large sum of money to change his statements. A 75-year-old man from Tilburg was sentenced to 8 years in prison in the country for sexually abusing two minor boys.

I think it is just a ruse. The PTB are paying lip-service to solving the huge problem of pedophilia in the Netherlands (and other countries) by focusing on a few individuals while steering clear from the many pedophile (international) rings. Twenty years ago the Zandvoort case demonstrated that Holland is an important child pornography production and distribution country and they are still promoting pedophilia via LGBT groups and the courts for instance. Nothing has changed, in fact, things are becoming worse: LGBTQIAP+...Pedophilia? Top Dutch gay publication publishes pedophile 'coming out' interview -- Sott.net

Have you read any articles about pedophilia in Holland at all, the ones which Sott carried, Palinurus?

Yes I have whenever any were published, both on the English version and on the Dutch version.

I agree with you that most of these measures contain an awful lot of window dressing and public relations management. Most of it doesn't quite reach into the hart of the problem and seems to be put in place mainly to appease the general public.

I'm not familiar with the percentage of recidivism among convicted offenders and I only wanted to demonstrate to miguel angel and any other interested persons that within the Netherlands itself there are at least some measures and institutions available to monitor the situation, trying to prevent that pedophiles would enjoy a free reign -- how imperfect it all may function in practice though.

It doesn't mean anything though, as long as 'institutions' like Dutch Child Protective Services will continue to remove kids from their homes while dramatically increasing their chances of being abused and then lie about it and try to intimidate scientists who were doing research into child sexual abuse in children's homes: Wetenschappers moesten rapport kindermisbruik in jeugdzorg aanpassen -- Sott.net

It is just another way of gaslighting the people who lack knowledge of psychopathy IMO.
