it was worth it for me to come to germany. i shall my got my license to work as a swimming instructor here. and issue now are teach children under dose. to swim, vest is dish. what's your story? take part. share it on info, migrants dot net. ah with ah, with the container ships comes the cocaine. with the cocaine, comes the cash. ah, with the cash comes the violence with the murders of ordinary people. and those in the public eye sending shock waves throughout

society. ah, we're in rotterdam, a bastion of organized crime late point 5000000 containers into europe's largest port every year. controlling everything is impossible. and drug dealers know that

drive drive drive a policewoman remodeled a shaft director, colleague a narcotics office, a films with a small camera, a lease cost joined them. ah, there's been word of a cocaine home after i bought them a giver. that's right. okay. blood? yeah. you, sam told all okay, thanks the drug courier, his diving through the harbor place and with the package. it doesn't live with me at this time. the investigators are there in time to intercepted, though the almost daily routine joke dro mill, the shaft and her colleagues, a dangerous routine, as she's well aware that would ever work well. i've got my bullet proof lest and an extra secured car. then we're also wearing a 2nd bullet proof vest. i just hope that things get serious. i'll be faster. cold

speed is of the essence and not just in a car. the port is 42 kilometers long and many places can only be reached by police boat. the officers often work in the same fixed team. we're joining them for today's operation. looks like it's now girl's medicine them as a found more, i compare my job with that of a garbage man picking up trash damage still. if he stopped till the streets would be full of trash, met them at the trash doesn't stop coming, montage will still need. the port is so huge that sometimes on the move hours, the 2 police officers are members of a special task force that also includes public prosecutors and customs officers. lucas that out. as we carried out a search yesterday evening with customs, they're still back there with the investigation team being known as though we're looking for to ga. so unfortunately,

we didn't find them often, customs, authority dive is brought in, such as here for another ship, a move they died down beside the side of the vessel. sometimes to a depth of 20 or 30 meters. and find containers fix to the side or hidden cavities? time and again, they find huge packages of cocaine. the drug that's corroding the netherlands. oh, that's nothing. ne, ah,

that is dog in 2012 width stolen a load of cocaine in yarbrough on to her. that's where i started. and then expires into a, the total war. and that up till now is causing people to be killed. and it's a war that is about power is about control of the arbor, about gain lot of money. and it's about who controls the on the world. and that's where it's about. so it's about power there around a 100 different container ships in the port every day. sometimes a lot more new ones arrive all the time. each of them carrying thousands of containers, they bringing the cocaine. 40 tons of it was seized here last year. a lot. that much more gets through the total estimate for the ports of rotterdam,

and swap and hamburg combined is closer to $1300.00 tons prime destinations for south american suppliers. most of the cocaine is distributed in the netherlands, where most of the gangs are based, different types of ha, the workers are involved. a crane driver can earn a 100000 euros if he moves a container in the right direction. a regulatory worker can pocket 20000 for just looking the other way. this man was involved in cocaine smuggling, for many years. he managed to get out when it comes to the gangs methods. bribery is only half the story. he says they will just leave me a go lay, apply pressure will try to get the weaker ones to carry on for sure. so they use subtle threads. i so you aren't threatened directly with the actual really subtle

hilton fuel foam. they can preview little who things like you, i'm at your girlfriend with you. well, you've got a beautiful wife, a beautiful boy, dad, or mom of lo. jackson is not real threats, but you still don't feel safe at all. i'd like to warn every one about lag need. they are adults with their little table and a really good lawyer. vito shaquilla is on the way to prison for a meeting with one of his clients. most of them around the world figures who are involved in my fear related crimes. he knows how they tick. these can set them off quickly and it can escalate very quickly and to aggressive behavior irrational behavior. this means that if something occurs in their life, let's say an arrest that the, the 1st away,

the easiest way for them is to see who is culpable, who is guilty, and they don't see it as that. they are guilty that they are responsible for the actions, but it can be to police the judge, the prosecutor, the lawyer, but they don't look at their own responsibility. so sometimes i tell them, wait one moment, you blaming everybody, but 1st look into the mirror. what is it that you have done to get in this situation? i know how they feel, because i used to be one of those children back in the days when i went to school. and people also tried to stop me to go to the gymnasium, telling me what are you doing there, you don't, you should not be here. so sometimes she don't get the same opportunities. and i like to represent those kind of children who made bad most bad decisions and became maybe even a hit man, or someone in his

carseat ramelle to shove is well aware of the risks involved in her job. but i'll always be a police officer. she tells us and prepares for the next operation, which shall be filming for us. mm hm. the police have received a tip off. they're looking for cocaine smugglers between the containers. in cases like this, an entire area is caught and off and work comes to hold. they're looking for people hiding in the containers. some even live in them. people have to get the goods out of the port. they're known as ow told us ah,

that least 3 pin. they get them in, but there's plenty more of them out. and they'll be swiftly replaced my off hello that i we made 268 arrests and 2020 our how to this year. it was already 180 and the year is still long. and dr. cocaine is also seized in the rides. the authorities estimate one kilo as a st value of around $50000.00 euros. often several tons of found among gov. many threads of the cocaine mafia come together here in amsterdam as a robust trade in the red light district. but most of the drums to move to other countries. this is an extremely lucrative market, was defended by all possible means including violence. the so called macro mafia is

active in some amsterdam neighborhoods. many of its members have moroccan routes, hence the name. veto shall, cruellest law practice is located in one of these districts. he's been watching recent developments with concern and it's very alarming because these people can be very young. again, even guys from 176 years old will do this kind of things. so it's alarming to the government and they're going out of control problem is that the government over the past year's day, i took a lot of money away from the neighborhoods because normally the word or agents are the police who are in there in neighbors. and they were talking with people and people from the municipality, they were talking with them, but they took the money away from them. so they shorten them. and now they don't feel what's happening in neighbors. and these people, at grand bosses,

they take over in those neighbors and they show who's the boss there. and people listen to them through his work defending clients from the organized crime maloof. vito sees how much power the drug matthew, has developed. the gossamer normally should have the sole purpose of using finance when it is needed. but if you have a shadow government with honda sent me answer to their disposal, then you get these kind of problems because then they can they can attack institutions. like, for instance, a newspaper ah cctv pictures from june 2018 show a white delivery van and a getaway vehicle. approaching the building of the dutch newspaper, the telegraph. the van rams. the entrance. twice

the driver activates an explosive device and flees the scene. is not the 1st attack on a media company. many dutch journalists reporting on macro matthew activity can now only work on the police protection. ah, the attack on the telegraph, the countries highest circulation, daily newspaper, is a clear show of power. even more shocking was the attack on a lawyer there this him in september 2019. he was defending a key witness in a high profile mafia trial. this one was guns down in broad daylight to witness his brother, who had no involvement in the case had already been shot dead. the murders were a wakeup call for the dutch. investigators followed the trial to do by the long time hideaway for mafia bosses want him to conduct their business undisturbed. it's

here that special forces detained, the man suspected of ordering. the killings, police find a stash of cash and guns at the apartment. red wine and cigarettes left on the table rita and t is thought to be one of the leaders of the macro mafia. after being brought to the netherlands. he is now the principal suspect in what's known as the marengo trial. the country's highest profile mafia trial to date. it's taking place on the tight security. 17 suspects a standing trial for alleged involvement in a string of murders, and attempted murders among the killing of a blogger. this footage shows a failed tempt, but that afternoon, the killer fulfilled the terms of his contract. he would exhibit double choice public prosecutors describe it as

a well oiled killing. machine. moved off and what is heat is dotty more to alum up . what we're seeing here is that these killings definitely come from a criminal mill you ever. and they target people who have talked or people who were a threat to the organization formed. for though it appears that this organization has attempted to maintain its control in this manner to blighter was peter to freeze, also seen as a threat by the macro mafia. he was supporting a key witness prepared to give evidence and court. i south of the hands found that out of the low side and i have to number group off nicer than the key witness to asked if i could help him and support him. and i'm actually a crime reported by profession. fumble group. you could say that now bill was 1st of all, a gangster and gangster, but after the death of his brother and his lawyer group, i also see him as a victim. and on this i'll slot all 4 eyes and thou look slot, offer. avoiding they sac into devries is one of the nation's best known journalists

. at the trial, he worked together with the new defense lawyers for the key witness. so hell found to replace the 1st lawyer who was murdered by as oh, phill boeing into mort, duchess, or with so much violence and murder? it's the slaves, duty to intervene, bottle blade wilt, or, and for social coexistence for an effective rule of law. as of laura, crucial, the next out come life fiction, you understand ill fell or best bell for the over i on dice. gold is a great deal at stake for the state, a thing for public and social cohesion on all the this is the given moment when everything is revealed for god's and if a lawyers liquidated today's van, the question is the who really is in charge of the country it long is that the on the we're old is not this, is that the underworld and he shots, is that the criminal organisation ricci i use, or is it the police and the justice system?

or the question arises, that isn't a to look val in it could think of a constitutional state is of course under threat with the murder of the lawyer for the key witnesses, hawk holes door. nate, alarm pain from virus. i am the im belonged via and that's a shock for the entire nation of betaken did dealt oak and esther sh. an officer to other liars and representatives of the judiciary and journalists are no longer safe to foreign day for more to fill asia. that the whole spectrum in our country is at stake with this trial. does that this mother all amal in the process? well, oh, but spell stands and that's why the marengo trial needs to take place at all costs . the state needs to take the stand, particularly because the defendants have many supporters. and there are very real fears that even if they're in prison, they're still be pulling strings. the trial against the micro mafia is mainly possible because investigators managed to infiltrate the gangs communication channels for a long time, criminals communicated using the encryption software,

pgp or pretty good privacy until the authorities managed to hack the channels. this meant they could track my fear activities in real time, including murder plans, one order to kill red like this bro. this man must die. if someone wants to do it live, that's best. i reckon. prepare the hitters and the weapons. they'll get a fat stag. i can't tell you how much i want to get him. what guns do you need? a kazan glocks are ready. bro. do your best? ah, another encryption software used by the mafia and cro chat is also act international. investigators monitor messages for weeks when the organization realizes what is happening. investigators pounds in a number of locations and go public mound the long off nails facility and toppled

automobiles and nail for months. it's like we've been sitting at the same table with the criminal halo. so as in ball site, we spoke a have we heard what they've been talking about and what they've planned, and asia in orlando for the next few weeks on. if i'm not going to dig around this gold mine of information, how would you felt my thought, my phone delva, investigation team leader, andy crock, used to be an elite fighter in special dutch army units. he was shocked by what he and his colleagues heard. door of into that a susie or death, we've got experienced hardened investigators who've been in the business for 30 years, smoked in his and have never seen or heard anything like it. sloppy. they say quite simply in one sentence, save vill, that person ex mustard sleep, felt hammock, the word sleep means they want to kill someone in on have it. you can think that's what happens will build that's horrifying to see. and another exam blessed that we

came across a real prison and torture chambers and death culmer met. multiple gardeners this right to place in the summer of 2020, in the southern netherlands. it's evidently a mafia group bass. one of many corner good investigators detained. more than $1000.00 suspects in the netherlands and across europe, they found weapons subterranean dungeons and a kind of torture chamber. ah, now the table spun, little mentor, but these are very tense moments when you have to intervene are starting when a special observation team and an arrest team have to be called to intervene and others for other uncomfortable moments. when you see that corruption is involved, the corrupt custom officers call the corrupt police officers of the offender. then

you have to respond to your own colleagues. here we have a separate team for that international investigation team. these are very difficult situations all day. there is a lot that we have experienced in the last few months out there, but i could write a whole book about it from the in yet a clinical book of all saver successful police right destabilized the cocaine mafia but so far has been no discernible impact. on shipments, customs officials regularly sees tons of the drug, such as here in rotterdam. business as usual it would seem within the more crow murphy amelia, many hundreds, if not thousands of people awaiting their turn to take over the highly lucrative business. and the cycle of violence continues unabated. from the 6th of july and 2021 in downtown amsterdam. the broadcast arts yell was producing the program

boulevard. they die once again with peter har degrees. in an evening the journalist featured on many shows, talking about organized crime and the marengo trial corporate on that day, it's all he was discussing in a duction on ink on thinking. well that, that sir. yeah. mosquito. ha, ha, look back. o'clockish conveys once his interview was over, peter all the rest left the studio and walked towards his car. it was 90 7 30 in the evening. 05 shots rang out. ah de vries, the famous crime reporter supporting a key witness in one of the biggest trials ever seen in the netherlands. was mon down in central amsterdam most likely, but to macro mafia henchmen. although to freeze thought he would be safe,

the killing sent shockwave through the netherlands. people simply could not believe what had happened. apart from the 2 attackers, 2 others were seemingly involved. immediately after the shooting, they filmed the injured peter to freeze and posted the video on social media. the footage was immediately shed hundreds of thousands of times inside a saw it as a message. look, we can do whatever we like. ah, 9 days after the attack, peter, all the fries died of his injuries. the entire country mourned his death hulu, the brother of a key witness than the lawyer. and now a nationally famous journalist,

and those of just the high profile cases. they hid the country, heart beat their defeat later and if he was an outstanding journalist, this was an attack on press freedom, a foundation, stone of our constitutional state, and therefore an attack on our constitutional state american ethical, best of all drugs, mafia crimes were attacked on the constitutional state, the murder of peter adris, the murder of the law at dark vis him, and the bomb attack on a newspaper's offices. and there's no sign of any let up. ah, the dutch sheet of government in the hague. ah, prime minister marked router was always a keen cyclist. several source is now report an acute threat against him. router now needs special protection. ah,

but targets owns just people in the public eye. lawyer, vito shaquilla knows that take his current case, for example. he's defending a client accused of involvement in the contract. kidding. we accompany him to court . a people were the victims were sitting. you were talking to car and suddenly people rush up to him. just like in a garage like here. so you must imagine that the horror for this people because they don't understand they're not criminal, they're just living their daily life. and suddenly they see it. men rushing up to them. judy lance ma hiena is a d. j. judy has a wife and a young child on the day in question. he and his family leave the underground parking lot in his black mini cooper at that

moment, the contract killers driving to the carriage a short time later judy in his family return. the kid was waiting for a black mini. they fired 3 people who have absolutely nothing to do with drugs, all the mafia and flee the scene. and the bonus of the automatic rifle just missed the baby child with 2 centimeters . the wife was also hit with a lot of bullets. and so she merely survived. but the ross bent, he died in the garage at that spot. the 3 perpetrators caught the trial is on the way. like lying is accused off ah, driving the car with the hit man in it into the garage. he says

that he never knew that these people were up to this plan to kill people into the garage. the killers targeted the wrong people that is very disturbing for a lot of people because it's not earth or something that is abstract. if it comes, it comes at that moment. it becomes reality that everybody can get a victim. everybody can get gil veto shaquilla before the start of the trial. it's still unclear what he can do for his client. as far as the netherlands is concerned, he sees a bleak future. ah, the way our system at this moment is it will keep on going with the cocaine, with the money and the killings and the mafia. ah, the hall, the police know that to the now trying to get contain accompanies on board in the battle against cocaine trafficking. the police want these

companies to do more to counter corruption by conducting more stringent checks on staff and workflows. what is that enough? if i've ever been to film, of course we're trying to seize as many drugs as possible and arrested suspects it'll be. but i don't have the utopian belief that will stop it. but there's no question of giving up. that's simply not an optional honey. i can't do much, but we really need to continue this fight, whether it's me or my successor. it doesn't matter as magazines, right? no one in the netherlands believes that the world will ever be completely free of drug trafficking and crime, particularly as long as the demand for cocaine continues to grow. i ah,
