First Dutch pirate fined under new policy
« on: December 04, 2013, 1959 UTC »
The first FM pirate raided under the new Telecom Agency policy, has been fined . 'Club AA' from Gramsbergen  was fined nearly € 10,000, reported the pirate site etherpiraten.com

Since 1 November the pirate no longer gets a warning. And so a pirate who is raided can expect a letter after a few weeks .

In a recent judgment, the court endorsed the new policy of Telecom Agency, so the chances of success for a pirate when challenging his fine is not very good.
