It's a now-familiar story in Europe. This time in Amsterdam. A 20-year-old asylum-seeker, in the country illegally, is charged with raping, beating, and murdering (translation pending) a 68-year-old woman in April (The victim died of her injuries in June.) In response, local residents are protesting a center for migrants in their neighborhood. Meanwhile, the mayor says the remedy is to trim the bushes!!
Here is an initial report on the murder from Vlad Tepes.

Update: Here is my translation of the above-linked AD News article from June when the victim died.

The suspect has since confessed that he beat and raped the woman. The investigation, which
continues as a sex crime, made the TV program, Opsporing Verzocht (Investigation/Search for Clues Requested) on Tuesday.
On 21 April around 21:30 hours, the police received a report from residents in Geervliet, who heard screams outside. Witnesses also say a man was beating on "something". That turned out later to be the woman. Officers sped to the Geervliet and shortly thereafter found her seriously beaten and unconscious. The police were able to quickly arrest the suspect nearby.
The victim, Rinia Carlien Hazra Chitanie, who worked as a doctor in the Ministry of Defense, was taken to the hospital with serious injury. There she lay in a coma fror weeks. She was so disfigured that her family members didn't even recognize her in the hospital. Yesterday, the family decided to let her life end. The prospects for recovery were minimal.
Gijlsbrecht
It is not clear where and how the suspect and the woman came together. It is important for the investigation and relatives to learn more, the police say.
What they suspect : The woman probably left her residence on the Rhijnestein in Buitenveldert around 9:15 pm. She walked in the direction of the Gijlsbrecht van Aemstelpark and turned right there just before the bridge. Because of this, she came walking parallel to the park and the water. How the woman continued walking is not clear. The police want to talk with anyone who saw Chitanie walking, they tell Opsporing Verzocht.
The woman is about 1:50 meters tall, of Surinamese origin, and wore black half-high shoes with white soles and light-colored, vertical stripes, black pants, light T-shirt and a black and white shoulder bag.
Witnesses
The investigators are also looking for people who saw or spoke to the suspect. Prior to the incident, he spoke with other people, among others a young woman, presumably about 30 years old.
The police know that he also had a chat with a couple. He supposedly met the man and woman in the Gijlsbrecht van Aemstelpark. They had a plastic bag and possibly had been shopping in the shopping center at Gelderland Square. The conversation was probably in broken Dutch, the police said.
