Foreign criminal gangs are increasingly getting involved in property crimes in the Netherlands. Based on previously unreleased police data, accessed by Omroep WNL's NPO Radio 1 program, Het Misdaadbureau, it was reported that in 25 percent of property crimes committed last year, the suspect identified was neither born in the Netherlands, possessed a Dutch address, nor held Dutch nationality. The criminal gangs operating in the Netherlands come from various regions, including Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and South America. According to René Middag, National Police's coordinator for mobile banditry, individuals exploiting the asylum procedure to engage in criminal activity across Europe also contribute to these crimes.
