On Wednesday in the Netherlands Badr Hari appeared in court as his trial for the assault on Koen Everink

 

On Wednesday in the Netherlands Badr Hari appeared in court as his trial for the assault on Koen Everink as well as a slew of other charges has had its time to stew and now it\’s time for his lawyer to do battle with the prosecution. The judge announced on Wednesday that if Badr Hari is found guilty on the charges he\’ll spend a total of four years in prison. This, of course, pertains to the assault on Koen Everink at the Amsterdam ArenA almost two years ago now where Badr Hari assaulted millionaire Everink with both damage to his head and ankle, with his ankle permanently damaged.

Along the way there has been a lot of fanfare behind Badr Hari\’s trial, as the media has been all over it. There has been possible tampering with witnesses, which saw Badr sit in a cell for a while as to not be able to intimidate witnesses, on top of more and more charges piling up against the “Bad Boy,” the Dutch legal system\’s attempt at building such an overwhelming case against the Kickboxer to where he\’d have to do time. His lawyers present their counterargument today, where they will aim for a reduced sentence
