Marco Borsato asks the Dutch State for 391,000 euros for legal fees

Marco Borsato faced sexual abuse allegations in December 2021, leading to a prosecution that ultimately resulted in his acquittal due to lack of evidence. He is now seeking to reclaim his legal fees, which amount to 391,000 euros, although it is uncertain if he will receive this amount. His lawyers indicated that he chose not to claim compensation for lost income, despite significant earnings lost since the allegations. Borsato expressed his intention to attend the court session, which may be held behind closed doors, although journalists will be allowed to attend. The date for the court's decision is still pending.
