Dutch police and prosecutors are offering a large cash reward for information leading to the arrest of Jos Leijdekkers, an alleged cocaine kingpin. BBC News reports the reward is set at a record €2 million, after Leijdekkers has been found guilty in absentia of cocaine smuggling and is believed to be in Sierra Leone.

Other outlets describe the same man and case while highlighting the reward in different currencies and its planned increase. The Independent says prosecutors offer £1.6 million for information leading to his arrest, framing the story around the scale of the incentive. NL Times reports the Public Prosecution Service is increasing the reward to reach €2 million, citing De Telegraaf in its account.

Across coverage, the core elements remain consistent: Leijdekkers is the subject, the reward is intended to secure a decisive tip for his arrest, and his location is described as being in Sierra Leone, with the Dutch court having already found him guilty in absentia. The main differences are presentation and emphasis rather than the underlying facts.
