WILLEMSTAD - The handling of the case in which Schotte is claiming compensation from the country of Curaçao is scheduled for March next year.
The former Prime Minister wants to get compensation because, according to him, he should have never been convicted. Schotte says that there was insufficient suspicion against Schotte and the Public Prosecution Service started digging using a lie as the reason. They did this until they found something they could use to prosecute him.
This case makes no difference to Schotte's conviction and imprisonment, the former Prime Minister has already been definitively convicted of official corruption and money laundering.
