The Dutch Public Prosecutor’s Office is reporting that a 19-year-old suspect from Hoogezand-Sappemeer who was arrested yesterday in relation to an attack on the website of the Dutch Public Prosecutor’s Office, has been released on Sunday after he had been interrogated by investigators of the Dutch Team High Tech Crime. The suspect has provided a confession.

The suspect also confessed to having attacked the websites of MasterCard, VISA and MoneyBookers. Investigators were able to track down his IP address. He is facing a maximum prison sentence of six years.

The report does not indicate why the suspect has been released. Typically the authorities revert to such a decision whenever there is no significant chance the suspect will leave the country while awaiting trial. It is also not known whether the suspect will be allowed access to computer equipment and internet connections.
