This also applies when the police officer is not sitting at a computer. The police may write down everything you say, even when you&#8217;re not in an official interrogation situation.  <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Details Amsterdam District Court<\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>Visiting Address<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Parnassusweg 220<br\/>1076 AV Amsterdam<\/p>\n\n<p>Tel: <a href=\"tel:088%20361%2070%2000\">088 361 70 00<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Opening Hours Central Desk<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Monday-Friday: 8:30 AM-5:00 PM<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rechtspraak.nl\/Organisatie-en-contact\/Organisatie\/Rechtbanken\/Rechtbank-Amsterdam\/Paginas\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More info<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":7454,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-7851","info","type-info","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info\/7851","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/info"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info\/7851\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7852,"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info\/7851\/revisions\/7852"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info\/7454"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.strafrechtadvocaten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7851"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
