Here´s one last update. Authorities as well as guards are blamed for the death of the 11 "illegal aliens". 8 are still missing. They might be dead
or they might have escaped.
'Overheid schuld aan dood illegalen' (in dutch...)
De overheid heeft onverantwoorde risico’s genomen door vluchtelingen te huisvesten in geïmproviseerde cellencomplexen met slecht gekwalificeerd
personeel.
Die beschuldiging uiten asieladvocaten en de vakbond AbvaKabo na de brand in cellencomplex Schiphol-Oost, waarbij elf mensen om het leven kwamen.
,,Deze mensen zijn dood doordat de overheid ervoor kiest ze op te sluiten in provisorische complexen,’’ zegt M. Collet van de Vereniging van
Asieladvocaten en Juristen Nederland.
,,De overheid heeft boter op het hoofd,’’ zegt AbvaKabo-bestuurder Dieten, die zich bezighoudt met het gevangeniswezen. ,,Eerst is er zwaar
bezuinigd op gevangenissen, daarna moesten er halsoverkop complexen voor bolletjesslikkers en vluchtelingen worden bijgebouwd.’’

The authorities has taken qualified irresponsible risks to house through refugees in improvised cells complex with bad personnel.
That accusation utter asylum lawyers and the union AbvaKabo after the fire in cells complex Schiphol-East by which eleven men came round the life.
,, These men are dead because the authorities for it chooses they on to close in provisional complexes,'' says M. Collet of the Association of

The authorities has says butter on the head,'' AbvaKabo-driver Diets that self occupies with the prison being. ,, Firstly there heavily has been
economized on prisons, after that must there in a hurry complexes for bolletjesslikkers and refugees become bijgebouwd.''
I´m sure this case will be dominating the media for a while. At least in Holland...
Here from an article in "real" english:
Sydney Morning Herald: Guards

Guards at a detention centre at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam have been accused of negligence after at least 11 illegal immigrants burned to death in
a fire.
The head of investigations at the disaster management institute NIBRA, Ben Ale, said the fact that the fire engulfed an entire wing indicated that
either the complex was poorly designed or that firefighters had been called in too late.
The building on the east side of Europe's fourth-largest airport is surrounded by a three-metre fence and barbed wire. Set up in 2002, it is used to
detain people who arrive by air and have been refused entry to the Netherlands, including drug dealers and failed asylum seekers. "They were illegal
aliens waiting to be extradited to their countries of origin," the Dutch immigration service said, adding: "We are still busy trying to confirm
their identities."
One detainee said the inmates had tried to raise the alarm, but were ignored by guards who told them nothing was wrong.
