Een alinea uit Parket bij de Hoge Raad 9 maart 2021, ECLI:NL:PHR:2021:231.

“55. In that context the Court of Appeal noted that the defence had not indicated on what points the statements of witnesses A to G were incorrect […] and, in addition, that the applicant had availed himself of his right to remain silent when he had been interviewed by police, and that he had not wished to reply to specific questions about his activities for company Fr. which had been put to him by the Court of Appeal at the hearing […]. To the extent that these additional observations of the Court of Appeal ought to be interpreted as meaning that it found those facts relevant for its refusal to secure the attendance of the witnesses, the Court considers that the right of an accused to cross-examine witnesses against him or her cannot be made dependent on his or her renunciation of the right to remain silent.
