Suspect released in crime writer's murder

A British man arrested on suspicion of involvement in the murder of crime blogger Martin Kok, was released again on Friday. He was not arraigned, but remains a suspect, the Public Prosecutor announced, according to the Telegraaf.

The 27-year-old British man was with Kok last week Thursday when he visited sex club Boccaccio in Laren on Thursday. Kok was assassinated when he left the club.

The British man calmly left the club after the assassination, according to the newspaper. That was one of the things that made him suspicious to the police.
