A 35-year-old Dutchman suspected of participating in a large DDoS attack on antispam organization Spamhaus was extradited from Spain to the Netherlands on Monday evening, the Dutch Public Prosecution Service said Wednesday.A judge in the Rotterdam District Court Wednesday ruled to keep the suspect in jail for an initial 14 days, as requested by the Public Prosecution Service, said a service spokesman, Paul van der Zanden. "I can say nothing substantive about the case because it is still under investigation," he added. The investigation is led by the Team High Tech Crime of the Dutch police.In two weeks, the court will decide whether to keep him in custody for a longer period pending the outcome of the investigation, Van der Zanden said.At the moment, it is impossible to give an estimate of how long the investigation will take, Van der Zanden said.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
