Amsterdam district court has made a formal complaint to the police about social media attacks on a judge and her partner, which included spreading personal information about her.

The complaint includes “doxing”, or spreading personal details with the aim of intimidating the victim, which is now a crime in the Netherlands.

The judge in question last week overturned an entry ban imposed by the cabinet on three Islamic preachers. The court ruled that ministers had failed to produce evidence that they presented a danger to public order.

The three men, invited to speak at the Ramadan Expo in March, were accused by asylum minister Marjolein Faber and justice minister David van Weel of “hate-mongering” and “condoning violence”.

Van Weel and Faber said they had conferred with anti-terrorism body NCTV, but the judge’s ruling found the organisation had rightly concluded there was insufficient evidence to justify a ban for two of the preachers.

The third man was guilty of spreading disinformation when he denied the Hamas attack on Israel, but “his comments should be seen in the context of the broader Palestinian-Israeli conflict, in which both parties spread disinformation and use violence against citizens”, the NCTV said.

After the verdict was published, photos of the judge were circulated on social media alongside threats against her. Her partner was also named in the posts.

The council for the judiciary condemned the attacks on judge last week.
