Amigoe: Natalee Holloway Investigation in last phase

Gerold Dompig in a press release regarding the status of the Natalee Holloway investigation.

Police Deputy Commissioner, Gerold Dompig made an urgent request for the taxi driver who the police had talked to during June/July 2005 and who pointed out an area in the vicinity of the dunes near the California Lighthouse to contact him. The person can contact Mr. Dompig directly.

Two things come to mind when reading the Amigo article. One, how does the ALE not have the name or at least contact information of this taxi cab driver? They took information from someone with this type of information and never bothered to get any type of contact information for a potential follow up question? Two, doesn’t Gerold Dompig have a “gag order“ on him in discussing the Natalee Holloway investigation?

Holloway investigation in last phase

ARUBA Ã¢â‚¬” Police spokesperson Papito Comenencia indicated that the cabdriver that the police was looking for as part of the investigation on the missing Natalee Holloway, has reported with the police. The police cannot say whether the man had valuable information. Deputy Chief Commander Gerold Dompig had a press report published last Monday, indicating that he would like to talk again with a cabdriver, whom he had contact with in June or July of 2005.

He mentioned in same press report that modern equipment and better trained dogs will be used to search for the possible buried body of Holloway. According to him, the investigation is in its last phase. At the time Dompig had contact with the cabdriver, he pointed out a location near the California dunes that can be related to the missing American girl. Dompig and a public prosecutor went to the Netherlands and had visited several instances that have helped in the investigation. The visit to the Netherlands had produced a lot, said Dompig. They were stimulated to broaden the investigation, because Justice ‘has not played her last cards yet’.

All the material that was collected up till now will be analyzed again.
