Dutch police chief Eric Akerbaum was quick to welcome the arrest of Tagé, considering the move of great importance to the Netherlands, while Dutch media reported that the arrested person was accused of leading a gang to smuggle cocaine and involvement in several murders.
The Dutch television network "NOS" indicated that the authorities in the UAE and the Netherlands are working to transfer Tague to the Netherlands, despite the absence of a treaty between them to extradite criminals.

The murdered lawyer was the defense attorney for a witness for the Public Prosecution called (Nabil B.) in a huge case, and among the most prominent defendants was Taghi and another wanted man, Saeed Razuqi.
