Nasser was arrested twice in October. He was arrested for the first time on October 11 in Amsterdam on charges of intentional assault and robbery with violence. After his initial release, he was arrested again on October 27 on suspicion of collaborating with an Egyptian espionage network. The Dutch prosecutor’s office announced that he is accused of cooperating with a foreign government with the aim of intimidating and threatening the political opponents of the Egyptian government in the Netherlands.
This player who was a teenager in the basic teams Ajax was present, used his old acquaintances for influence, although the Ajax club insisted that it had nothing to do with the scandal.
This case has caused severe tensions. The foreign ministers of the Netherlands and Egypt held an emergency meeting to discuss the issue. Egyptian authorities have demanded the release of Nasser, who is the vice president of the Egyptian Youth Union abroad. Following these developments, in addition to holding protests in The Hague and Cairo, the Netherlands closed its embassy in Egypt for security reasons. Someone close to Nasser has also threatened that hell will break loose for Dutch citizens around the world if he is not released immediately.
Nasser is currently under temporary detention for 30 days and if he is found guilty, he will be sentenced to a maximum of 8 years in prison.
