A Syria-based
journalist for news magazine Nieuwe Revu has managed to obtain a
forged Syrian passport and ID card with a photograph of prime
minister Mark Rutte on it. Harald Doornbos paid some €750 for the
passport, which he was able to pick up from the forgers within 40
hours. The fixer told Doornbos that he would be able to enter Cyprus
with the passport, which was in the name of Malek Ramadan. Doornbos
said the aim of the exercise had not been to buy a forged passport
featuring Rutte, but he had been asked to supply a name and
photograph, so he opted for the prime minister. ‘If we are able to
buy a good quality forged Syrian passport, so can Syria fighters…
and jihadis,’ Doornbos said. ‘Then it is relatively simple for
them to enter the EU unnoticed and commit terrorist attacks.’
