Two suspects arrested in robbery of Ajax player Tadic

Amsterdam police have arrested two men on suspicion of involvement in the robbery of Ajax player Dusan Tadic at the end of July.

Investigators tracked down the suspects using video footage from surveillance cameras. A 26-year-old man was arrested in Amsterdam-Noord on Friday and a 19-year-old man in the IJburg district on Monday.

33-year-old Tadic was attacked by two robbers at his home in Amsterdam South on the night of July 27-28. As he got out of his car, he saw two men in helmets and dark clothing. Tadic ran away, but a short struggle ensued. He vehemently resisted, the police said at the time.

The Ajax captain eventually fled to a nearby hotel where the police were called. The Serb suffered minor hand injuries.

The two suspects are in custody and will be brought before the investigating judge on Tuesday. Tadic was informed of the arrests, the police said.

The robbers couldn’t steal anything, but according to the police, they were probably targeting Tadic. A few days before the failed robbery, two men disguised as pizza delivery men are said to have knocked on the door of the house. Tadic’s wife would have smelled trouble and not opened the door.

Not the first robbery

Last May, then-PSV striker Eran Zahavi’s family was robbed at his home in Amsterdam. His wife and children were tied up and their mouths taped shut. The two robbers made off with personal belongings and cash. Six months later, Zahavi’s home was broken into again.

Other well-known Dutch people have also recently become victims of robbers. Ali B and Lil Kleine were robbed of their expensive Rolex watches last year. In 2020, René van der Gijp, Gordon, Fred van Leer and Nikkie de Jager were robbed in their own home.
