We reported earlier today that Badr Hari has confessed to his part in the beating of multimillionaire businessman Koen Everink at the "Sensation" festival at Amsterdam ArenA a few weeks ago. The beating left Everink in dire straits, with his face and ankle badly damaged, and with many pointing the finger at Badr Hari while he was on vacation with his new girlfriend, Estelle Cruijff, former wife of Ruud Gullit. It appears that Badr is being held in prison, and that it might be a while before he sees the light of day.

As of Thursday, Badr Hari's solitary confinement will still stand, but he will be allowed to watch television and read the newspaper -- two luxuries which were out of his reach up until now. Hari is still being kept away from other prisoners and is unable to interact with anyone from the outside world. It is still unknown when he will be formally charged and sentenced. [source]
