The Dutch crime reporter Peter R de Vries, who was shot and seriously wounded in central Amsterdam nine days ago, has died.
The 64-year-old was shot in the head minutes after leaving a TV studio.
Mr de Vries had won critical acclaim for his reporting on the Dutch underworld – including the 1983 kidnapping of the beer millionaire Freddy Heineken.
The statement released by his relatives on Thursday said he died "surrounded by the people who love him".
