Dutch professional football player and former Ajax star Quincy Promes has been handed a six-year prison sentence for his involvement in smuggling over 1,350 kilos of cocaine.
He was convicted on cocaine trafficking charges by the District Court of Amsterdam on Wednesday. The court sentenced him to six years in prison. His co-defendant, Marylio V., was also convicted on the same charges, as well as money laundering. V. was also handed a six-year prison term.
Promes and V. played a “crucial, directing and coordinating role,” in cocaine smuggling, prosecutors argued. They were accused of organizing the delivery of two batches of cocaine, with a combined weight of over 1,350 kilograms.
The court specifically criticized Promes for flaunting wealth and trying to increase his prestige by making extra money through serious crime.
