Virtual bullet
A Dutch cartoonist who publishes his drawings under the nickname “Gregorius Nekschot” has been arrested early Tuesday morning by a team of 10 policemen. The police also confiscated his computer, his mobile phone and other material from his home. This was announced by Dutch comedian Hans Teeuwen in a late-night talk show yesterday evening. Nekschot’s lawyer and the office of the Dutch DA have confirmed this information.
Allegedly, one of the policemen told Nekschot that “this would mean the end of his anonymity.”
