Call to all steemians to look for this man and report to local authorities. (100% DNA match)

in steem •  6 years ago 

This is the suspect of a murder case of an 11 year old boy 20 years ago. Yesterday after 20 years they finally know who did it.

But he is hiding somewhere!!! (last seen in France)

This case is such breaking news, I hope a Steemian can report him. From that moment on everybody in Holland and maybe Europe will know what Steem is.

happy hunting

Police in the Netherlands have announced a breakthrough in the 20-year-old disappearance and death of schoolboy Nicky Verstappen. Nicky, then aged 11, was at a summer camp in August 1998 when he vanished from his tent. His body was discovered in the forest the following day.

Police say they now have a suspect named Jos Brech, who lived nearby - and who disappeared earlier this year.

It follows the largest DNA testing project in the country's history. One of the only pieces of evidence in the case was foreign DNA discovered on Nicky's clothing. More than 14,000 men voluntarily gave DNA samples to the investigation - none of whom were suspects. But by comparing the samples, it could be determined if a relative of the donor was a match, narrowing the search. At a press conference on Wednesday, police announced that the suspect was 55-year-old Joseph Theresia Johannes Brech.

Mr Brech lived in the area where Nicky Verstappen died in 1998, but did not participate in the call for voluntary DNA samples, Dutch broadcaster NOS reports. He was recorded as having passed the scene of the crime back in 1998, NOS said, walking by a few days later shortly after midnight. He was stopped by police and later interviewed, but had been thought to be an innocent passerby. Police said he left the Netherlands late last year. In February, he told his family he was in France on a hiking trip, but has since vanished. After he was reported missing in April, police examining his home discovered he is a 100% match for the DNA found on Nicky's body.

Dutch police believe he is now in hiding. He is said to be an experienced woodsman who can survive in remote areas for long periods of time.

Hi @rival! We are @steem-ua, a new Steem dApp, computing UserAuthority for all accounts on Steem. We are currently in test modus and want to thank you for delegating SP to us in this early stage!

So sad news, terrible ,...

Its a sad story but the good news is they/we know now who committed that horrible crime. And in 2018 not much people stay unseen. Regardless that he is a bush crafter. He will be found and will be put behind bars sooner or later.

If a steemian can locate him, more people will be attracted to steemit and boom up its popularity. Nice idea and concept

Below is another picture of him.
