Moroccan arrested in Dubai after long escape

Anis B., the Amsterdam criminal wanted for several years, has finally been arrested in Dubai. Dutch authorities have announced their intention to request his extradition for his involvement in several cases of serious violence, including the murder of Serdar Ay in 2020.

This arrest marks a turning point in the hunt for Anis B., who had managed to escape the authorities and his rivals. In 2021, the Moroccan had been the target of several assassination attempts, including one that cost the life of his girlfriend, Ayla Mintjes.
