CRIMINAL COMPLAINT FILED WITH THE PUBLIC PROSECUTION SERVICE REGARDING CRIMINAL CONDUCT BY ATTORNEY MERIJN VAN LEEUWEN
On August 26, 2026, attorney Merijn van Leeuwen filed a criminal complaint with the Public Prosecutor at the District Public Prosecutor's Office in The Hague on behalf of the Stichting Herstel Ongekend Onrecht (Foundation for Redress of Unprecedented Injustice) and the Belangenvereniging Gedupeerde Ondernemers Toeslagen/FSV/MKB (Association for Affected Entrepreneurs in the Benefits/FSV/SME sector). The complaint calls for an investigation into potentially criminal acts in violation of the Constitution, specifically the withholding of information vital to parents, entrepreneurs, and their representatives (including journalists, lawyers, and judges). The Benefits department was not the only entity involved in harming families. The hunt for fraud targeting entrepreneurs, which included the use of a population management tool to select parents, is a criminal offense.
