Judgment N. Achikzei, Z. Mehraban, S. Achikzei against Advios Assurantiën BV and Geissen on account of a wage claim, defamation, slander and insulting behaviour

caret-down caret-up caret-left caret-right
Narges Achikzei, who was set on fire, and her boyfriend had a heated conflict with the woman's 32-year-old former employer in Utrecht. The family is associated with fraudulent practices. In any case, they were accused by an aggrieved man. He himself was summoned to a court one week after the fire murder in connection with the slander. For a long time he is said to have sent e-mails to the woman - an ex-worker - and damaged her honour and good name.

It is very likely that this conflict played a role in the cruel death. The public prosecutor's office never wants to answer questions about the content of the legal conflict. It is clear that the conflict exerted great pressure on Achikzei and other participants.

4.3. Geissen has left undisputed that he has received several e-mails from Achikzei. and publications on the Internet. Geissen states that he has not published the on the websites internetoplichting.nl; kopersbelangen.nl and godvoordommen.nl has removed.

The Court in preliminary relief proceedings is of the opinion that this is insufficiently fixed. is to state that the publications on the aforementioned websites have actually been removed.

Leaving aside the question of whether this would justify his behaviour, it is clear from the text of the e-mail of 7 May 2008 submitted by Geissen not of any death threat to Geisses. In addition, Geissen has also failed to demonstrate that he has reported the matter to the police.
