The police in safety vest are looking for three men, dressed in rain clothing, in the neighborhood of the place where Stefan Bogart was liquidated in September. They too were dressed in rain suits. Why do contract killers attract rainwear?
The black rain suits with reflective stripes worn by the two killers were attached to their gloves with tape. Also wore the two balaclavas. Bowie T. and Adjani El H. were soon caught, because their car did not want to start. They had to take off on foot and tried to get rid of their weapons and rain suits on their flight. That too was in vain. Both rain suits were recovered. That of El H. was found at a vegetable garden complex in the neighborhood. That of Bowie T. was found at a ditch near the crime scene.
Criminals who want to liquidate someone assume that rain suits leave little traces. Rain clothing prevents scrap residues or blood spatters from ending up on the shooter's clothing. The rain suits themselves are easy to clean with water. The rain gear can be put on with gloves directly from the plastic packaging. Moreover, they are easy to put on and take off with other clothes. Safety Rain clothing would then be particularly suitable for preventing external spores from ending up on the body or clothing of the shooter. Dan of the archer himself inevitably comes on the inside of the rain suit.
Inquiries at the NFI show that as a rule, however, external traces can indeed be found on rain suits. In general, the smoother the surface is how easily traces can disappear. But rain suits often have seams and stitches. Traces such as DNA and shot remains can often be found in these areas, even if they have been cleaned. In the past, the NFI succeeded in finding DNA and shot remains on material that at first sight did not seem to contain any trace.
The NFI shot remains of a semi-automatic firearm were also found on the rain gear and gloves that El H. used during the liquidation of Samar. Even on the rain pants and the rain jacket that Bowie T. had dumped in a ditch; the NFI could still find shot remnants. Scrap residues were also secured on the nitrides gloves that were attached to the rain jacket with gray tape. El H. and T. also wore balaclavas during the liquidation. The police near the crime scene too recovered these. They were full of the suspects' DNA.
The shot remains and DNA found contributed as evidence against the two men. The use of safety rainwear was therefore useless. The two were sentenced to twenty years in prison by the court in Utrecht. They also have to pay 50,000 Euros to the surviving relatives of the victim. T. and El H. appealed the decision.
In addition, Jerri Z., suspected of preparing a (failed) attempt at liquidation at Hakim H. in Utrecht earlier this year, wore no less than three layers of clothing when he was arrested in a car containing several automatic firearms. According to his lawyer, Z. is a chill that often carries several layers of clothing over each other.
