Amin Abu-Rashid, one of the leaders of Hamas in Europe, was arrested (Monday) in the Netherlands after years of acting covertly to destroy the State of Israel. The arrest comes as a follow up to Ad Kan’s “Shtula” series that aired on Channel 13 News a few months ago which sent waves around the world.
In the series Ad Kan sent an undercover agent into BDS organizations and Hamas Europe, where she became the personal assistant of Amin Abu Rashid, and documented Rashid’s illegal raising of funds for Human Rights Organizations, that were actually sent directly to Hamas. According to the reports, Abu Rashid’s daughter, who managed the funds, was also arrested and 750,000 euros in cash were seized on suspicion that they were intended for Hamas.
The exposing of Abu Rashid and others promoting terror under the guise of Human Rights activism was part of Ad Kan’s five-year project where it sent a Danish architecture student (“Shtula” or “Mole”) into anti-Semitic BDS organizations and terrorist groups, which revealed the deep ties between them. For years, Abu Rashid presented the different charity organizations he led to the Dutch people as groups advocating for basic human rights.
In undercover footage taken by Ad Kan’s undercover spy which aired in the series, Abu Rashid is seen saying, “My job is to destroy Israel”, and “2024 is the year Israel will be destroyed.” The undercover agent was able to take pictures of the sums illegally transferred to Hamas which were written in Rashid’s private notebooks to prevent hacking attacks on the information. The sums Rashid illegally transferred to Hamas amount to at least 5.5 million dollars.
Following the airing of the Shtula series on Channel 13, Ad Kan handed over the evidence it collected as part of the investigation to security and intelligence agencies in the countries where these so-called “Human Rights Organizations” operate. Ad Kan’s research reached the hands of the Dutch authorities, and they used the materials to launch an investigation into Abu Rashid, which led to his arrest.
Ad Kan warns that terrorist infrastructures are operating in Europe, England, and the United States, and that it is the responsibility of the governments there to move against them and put a stop to their illegal activities.
Gilad Ach, CEO of Ad Kan said in response to Abu Rashid's arrest: "We bless the authorities in the Netherlands for not being tricked by the false veneer of Human Rights Organizations for Palestine, promoted by Abu Rashid. Following our activities and research which aired in the “Shtula” series and the materials we passed on to the Dutch authorities, it became clear to them that Amin Abu-Rashid is the director of the Hamas network in the Netherlands. Abu Rashid transfers millions to Hamas, receives orders from them, purchases churches and turns them into mosques, and sees his main goal as destroying Israel."
"We call on the enforcement and intelligence agencies in Europe and the United States to act against and stop the network of terrorist groups and the anti-Semitic organizations that operate under the front of Human Rights Organizations and make them pay for their actions in the international arena."
