Regional Police Unit of The Hague Hosts Annual Diplomatic Event
Chief Constable Karin Krukkert hosted this year’s edition of the Regional Police Unit of The Hague Annual Event for Diplomats, held on Tuesday, 28 October, from 14:30 to 17:30 at the police headquarters. The official program, attended by a large number of diplomats, began promptly at 15:15, allowing ample time for informal networking beforehand.
This year’s gathering offered a truly unique experience—an intimate and candid look into the realities of police work, delivered through the lens of a real unsolved crime case. The various specialists involved provided their perspectives both as professionals and as individuals, who carry the human side of police work with unique personal insights shaped by their experience, revealing a human dimension rarely accessible to the diplomatic community.
It was also an excellent occasion to reconnect with Frans Scholten, from the Taskforce Diplomatic Security and Diplomatic Front Office Liaison. Well known and highly regarded among diplomats, he remains a recognizable and trusted face for the entire Diplomatic Corps.
Following the presentation, guests had the opportunity to meet the officers, ask questions, and engage in meaningful discussions. The afternoon concluded with refreshments and a networking reception, further strengthening the ties between the diplomatic community and the police.
