On September 23, 2025, several individuals faced sentencing in The Hague for their involvement in riots at Malieveld, with most receiving conditional prison sentences and community service.
- Most prison sentences were significantly lower and conditional.
- Jesse G. received a conditional sentence of two weeks.
- Martine K. was the only woman involved.
- Stanley M. was acquitted of violence against police.
- Laurens K. received a conditional sentence of two weeks.
- Martine K. must pay €500 to the Victim Fund.
According to the source, all required prison sentences were not only considerably lower but also mostly imposed conditionally by the police judge. This was sometimes in combination with community service, and in all cases, there was an obligation to deposit money into the Victim Fund for Violent Crimes.
According to the source, the 22-year-old Jesse G. from Oosterwolde expressed his concerns about the influx of asylum seekers. He threw a beer can at a police car and received a conditional prison sentence of two weeks and a community service requirement of forty hours.
“Ik was me van geen kwaad bewust.”

Martine K. (43) from Elburg was the only woman among the defendants. She claimed she was unaware of her actions when she was pulled from a train. However, she was seen throwing a piece of wood at a water cannon and received a conditional prison sentence of two weeks.
Stanley M. (43) from The Hague was acquitted of violence against police, while Laurens K. (45) from Zeewolde, who claimed to wear facial covering due to a sore throat, was sentenced to a conditional prison term of two weeks and eighty hours of community service for kicking a police car.
