One of the country’s biggest drug barons, Othman El Ballouti, was sentenced to seven years in prison by the Antwerp court on Friday morning. Four years less than what the public prosecutor had demanded against him. The judge also declared an asset of no less than 2.7 million euros forfeited. El Ballouti is being prosecuted for the import of 840 kilos of cocaine via the port of Antwerp, but has been living in Dubai for some time. His three accomplices were given prison sentences of up to five years.
