Hans Smedema: Allegations of Obstructed Justice by the Dutch Government

Hans Smedema’s pursuit of justice has been thwarted through a number of alleged actions by the Dutch government, both within the Netherlands and internationally [1, 2]. Smedema describes these actions as a systematic effort to obstruct justice, suppress the truth, and protect powerful individuals and institutions [3]. He believes the system is rigged against him, preventing any meaningful investigation into his allegations [3].

Domestic Obstruction of Justice

Smedema alleges the Dutch legal system has blocked any investigation into his claims for over 24 years [4]. He claims that he is expected to prove his claims while the very system he accuses prevents him from accessing the necessary evidence [4]. Smedema contends this obstruction has prevented him from receiving justice and support, including an independent investigation, free legal assistance, an advance on compensation, and restoration of his reputation [5]. Smedema’s allegations of Ministry of Justice obstruction center around several key areas, all of which, he argues, are designed to prevent his claims from being properly examined [6].

Specific actions that Smedema believes demonstrate the Dutch government’s obstruction of justice include:

• Denial of Legal Representation: According to Smedema, a core tactic to isolate and silence him is the systematic denial of legal representation [6-9]. Smedema claims that since 2000, lawyers in both the Netherlands and the United States have been either intimidated or explicitly instructed not to take his case due to the alleged involvement of the Dutch Royal family and the classification of his case as a “State Secret” [6-10]. He recounts instances where lawyers, after initially expressing interest, withdrew their services, citing pressure from unnamed sources [6, 8, 10, 11]. Smedema points to specific lawyers, like Ad Speksnijder, as examples of this alleged intimidation [6, 8, 9, 11, 12]. He also claims that the Dutch Bar Association and the disciplinary board for lawyers were complicit in denying him representation [6, 8, 9, 11]. Smedema alleges that Pels Rijcken, the firm representing the Landsadvocaat, would not provide him with legal assistance [11]. This lack of access to legal assistance further impedes his ability to gather evidence and pursue legal action against the Dutch government [13].
• Blocking the Filing of Charges and Investigations: Smedema asserts that his attempts to formally report alleged crimes were consistently thwarted [8, 14-22]. He alleges that police officers, acting under orders from the Ministry of Justice, refused to document his accusations, ensuring his allegations never reached a point of serious examination [12, 14-22]. He believes this inaction protected those in power [12, 14-22]. Smedema recounts specific instances where police intervention was allegedly blocked, such as the cases of Haye Bruinsma, a vice detective who was allegedly forbidden from filing a report, and Ruud Rosingh, a managing prosecutor who was allegedly forced to relocate after initiating an investigation into the rape of Smedema’s wife [16, 18, 21, 23].
• Suppression of Evidence: Smedema accuses the Dutch government of systematically manipulating, suppressing, or destroying evidence related to his case to discredit him and uphold the alleged cover-up [7, 24-26]. He claims that crucial documents, including police files, medical records, and the alleged “Royal Special Decree,” were altered, deleted, or made inaccessible to him [7, 24-26]. He points to inconsistencies in official records, missing files, and altered medical reports as proof of this alleged tampering [25, 26]. For example, a scar from an alleged forced sterilization was dismissed as “normal skin damage” in medical records [25, 26]. Smedema also claims the “Frankfurt Dossier,” purportedly containing incriminating information, disappeared [25, 26].
• Exploitation of Legal Procedures and Loopholes: Smedema accuses the Dutch government of exploiting legal technicalities and loopholes to obstruct his pursuit of justice [15, 27-33]. He claims they manipulated procedures to secure unfavorable rulings, denied him due process, and used legal technicalities to dismiss his complaints [15, 27-33]. Smedema also states the Dutch government manipulated procedures to secure unfavorable rulings and denied him due process [34].
• The “Royal Special Decree”: Smedema believes a “Royal Special Decree,” allegedly issued by Queen Juliana around 1972/73, is the root cause of the obstruction of justice he faces [2, 4, 35, 36]. He argues this decree shields individuals involved in alleged crimes against him and his wife from prosecution, effectively granting them immunity and placing them above the law [2, 4, 35, 36]. Smedema claims this decree has been upheld by subsequent monarchs [2, 4, 35-38].

International Obstruction of Justice

Smedema claims the Dutch government’s influence extends beyond the Netherlands, alleging they have used international relationships to obstruct his attempts to seek justice abroad [15, 34, 39-42].

Examples of alleged international interference include:

• International Interference and Treaty Exploitation: Smedema claims the Dutch government used a bilateral judicial treaty between the Netherlands and the US to prevent him from gaining asylum in America [7, 15, 34, 40-42]. He believes this treaty, designed for legal cooperation, was misused to shield the Dutch government from scrutiny, prioritizing the protection of the Dutch Crown over his individual rights [7, 15, 34, 40-42]. He alleges the Dutch government pressured authorities in Canada and Mexico to deny him entry and send him back to the Netherlands, preventing him from reaching the US [15, 34, 39-43]. Smedema claims King Willem-Alexander personally blocked his asylum offer from the Department of Justice while serving as co-pilot on a KLM flight in 2017 [36, 38, 39, 43-46].
• European Court of Human Rights (ECHR): Smedema alleges the ECHR’s decision to reject his complaint relied on false information provided by the Dutch Ministry of Justice, concealing the alleged cover-up and his inability to secure legal representation [23, 47-51].
• Complicity of International Actors: Smedema’s allegations raise concerns about the potential complicity of international actors in the alleged conspiracy [52]. He claims the cover-up extends beyond the Netherlands and accuses the Dutch government of pressuring authorities in other countries to deny him entry, suggesting a network of actors may be complicit in the alleged obstruction of justice [52]. The alleged involvement of a US judge and American investigations, as well as his claims that President Obama filed a UN complaint, highlight the potential complexities of international collaboration and the risk of powerful states prioritizing political relationships over justice and human rights [52].

The difficulty in obtaining legal counsel reinforces Smedema’s narrative of a powerful conspiracy silencing dissenting voices and obstructing justice [14, 53]. This consistent denial of legal representation reinforces his feelings of isolation and powerlessness [14]. Smedema’s relentless fight for justice, fueled by his blog and ebooks, represents a desperate attempt to reclaim control over his narrative and expose what he believes is a system designed to silence and discredit him [54]. He feels that the system is fundamentally rigged against him, designed to ensure his failure and prevent any meaningful investigation into his allegations [47].
