Secret service link to film-maker's killing
Belfast Telegraph | "A group linked to the suspected killer of the film-maker and critic of Islam Theo van Gogh had a mole inside the Dutch secret services, a court in Rotterdam heard yesterday.
The trial of a Moroccan-born translator raised new questions about the reach of the networks connected to the suspected murderer of Mr Van Gogh, a descendant of the 19th century painter, who was shot and stabbed as he cycled in Amsterdam. His killing in November last year shocked the Netherlands, sparking a surge of sectarian violence, with arson attacks on mosques, churches and religious schools."
