An Amsterdam District Court has issued sentences of up to six months in jail against 5 men who were involved in violent disorder after a soccer match between the Dutch club Ajax and Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv in November.

Several men were found guilty over attacks on Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans who visited Amsterdam last month, but the Dutch prosecutor said the violence was not motivated by anti-Semitic sentiment

The five defendants, who are all Dutch residents and aged between 19 and 32, were accused of public violence, theft and assault. View on euronews
