Average amount of financial compensation awarded to former suspects in the Netherlands in 2016, by reason (in euros)*
The source explains compensations to former suspects as follows: "A former suspect who has been taken into police custody or pre-trial detention can claim compensation if the proceeding was concluded without sanctioning. The same holds if the suspect has been convicted but the police custody or pre-trial detention was not lawful for the specific crime for which the suspect was detained. Furthermore, if a case has been concluded without sanctioning, a suspect can claim compensation on the basis of article 591a of the Code of Criminal Procedure. A former suspect can also invoke both articles. In that case the request on the basis of article 89 and the request on the basis of article 591a will be considered separately."
