If you see this man (Saban Baran) in Antalya, Turkey or anywhere else, report him to the police ! He is a convicted criminal and wanted by the Netherlands Judicial System.
A convicted people trafficker who has forced more than 100 women into prostitution in the Netherlands escaped from Dutch detention while on special leave has been discovered in Turkey by the daily Newspaper De Telegraaf. The paper reports that the Dutch/Turkish criminal, Saban Baran is running a nightclub in the Turkish resort of Antalya.
The Netherlands' public prosecutor's office has said it is unable to confirm the report, but De Telegraaf claims that Dutch justice authorities knew as early as November where B. was hiding. The prosecutors say it is impossible to force Baran's return to the Netherlands, because Turkey does not extradite its own subjects. Saban escaped in September when he was on special leave, ostensibly to visit his girlfriend and baby. The court decision to grant the man leave caused an uproar, and the judges later admitted they had underestimated the risk that Saban would run away. Several of his victims went into hiding when it became clear that the trafficker was at large. Dutch talk show stations are questioning why the Turkish authorities are not jailing Saban. The Netherlands are aware that Turkey does not repatriate its nationals to other countries, but the Turkish authorities who know that he is considered an international criminal should at least put him in jail and not be allowed torun a night club.
