Bijzonder Gerechtshof
Immediately after the liberation after World War II, the Bijzonder Gerechtshof was a court that was established in the Netherlands to try defendants accused of committing high treason, treason and war crimes. There were 14,000 such cases, and 145 cases led to sentence of death. Only 42 of those cases actually led to an execution by a firing squad.
A few known people that were sentenced to death and actually executed were Max Blokzijl, Anton Mussert and the only woman executed Ans van Dijk.
