Dutch municipalities monitor Moroccan immigrant properties
The Dutch Supreme Court (Centrale Raad van Beroep) ruled that municipalities are justified in resorting to private investigation companies to monitor the assets of Moroccan citizens living abroad, on the condition that the evidence is accurate and verifiable. In a case in the city of Gouda, a private firm uncovered a house registered in the name of the wife of a social assistance beneficiary, estimated to be worth approximately 125,000 euros, which led to the termination of assistance due to the beneficiary's refusal to disclose information or provide documents. The court confirmed that external property investigations and access to Moroccan records are beyond the municipality's authority, emphasizing the necessity of having reliable legal evidence and advising against relying on inaccurate information. This decision indicates a new direction in tracking hidden wealth, while underscoring the importance of presenting compelling proof to support actions against beneficiaries.
