C L O S E R The Mohammed B. Court Case part 2: A man with a conviction

Well, a bit late perhaps but nevertheless… here the last day of the Mohammed B. court case. Let’s begin with the prosecutor’s request: a life time sentence for Mohammed B. and him losing his right to vote and to be elected for the rest of his life. The prosecutor made a parallel with Van Gogh as a father and a child of his parents. Mohammed B. said in his goodbye poem that he was changed after his mother’s death. So that must mean something to him? Mohammed B. only laughed.

The prosecutor made clear that this wasn’t a trail against Islam but a trial against Mohammed B. who has an extreme and distorted conviction of what Islam is and should be.

He wasn’t able to prove that Mohammed B. got any help although it is most likely that he received some aid and that some people had to be aware of his plans. Between 19 May and 28 October he only had € 200 to spent; that’s not enough so where did the rest of his money came from?

Mohammed B. used to be a model pupil at school. Around 2001 and 2002 (after his mother’s death and after he spend some time in prison where he read the Koran – he wasn’t that a model citizen ) he became more pious and ‘preached’ about (his) Islam. He told people he wanted to live as a prophet. In the beginning he was only pious but not radical in a political sense.

The prosecutor stated that it was proven that Mohammed B. killed Van Gogh, that it was a terrorist act, that he hindered MP Hirsi Ali in her work and that if he was set free that the chances of repeating this are very great.

After this, Mohammed B. spoke. Wow he said…. He told Van Gogh’s mother that Van Gogh was not a hypocrite but a man with a conviction and that he killed him because of his religion; not because Mohammed B. was insulted or felt humiliated. To the policemen he said that he really tried to kill them and he also said that if he got out, he would do the same again. He stated that this statement was meant to comfort mrs. Van Gogh; the only person he felt he had some obligation to. ‘For the rest, I don’t really care’.
