H.J. Korterink, in publishing the article "Zeist fire murder: a cover-up? A timeline" on his website www.misdaadjournalist.nl did not act in a journalistically negligent manner. Unlike Ralph Geissen (complainant), the Council does not read in the article that he would be a "conspiracy thinker". A sufficiently clear distinction has been made between facts, allegations and opinions. There is no evidence of untrue reporting. The fact that the complainant does not agree with the official outcome of the murder case does not alter this. -Press Council
