This is big news. All the headlines are about it now. But it's not surprising, of course. Nobody in the Netherlands is surprised by this decision. There was a lot of evidence.
According to the version of the court, Promes played a "decisive role" in the smuggling of two shipments of cocaine that arrived in Antwerp port in January 2020. Quincy himself was not present at the sessions of the court, the prosecutor's office of the Netherlands failed to get him extradited.
