Episode synopsis
The renowned psychiatrist Oswald Nys has a very strange hobby: he tortures prostitutes who are delivered to him by nightclub owner Bellon. However this goes terribly wrong and the illegal Akkim dies. Another victim of Nys, Sylvie Van Dijck, who is a coke addict, threatens to tell the whole world and phones Matti to make an appointment. But she doesn't show and a night later she is found dead. The only starting point Matti has, is the name Akkim. For some strange reason Sylvie visited her father, Eric Van Dijck, the night she was murdered. She hasn't made contact with him in years. Why now?
About Heterdaad
In this Flemish detective series, the Dutch title of which means in the act, notably "in flagrante delicto", a team of the Belgian (national) police lead by John Nauwelaerts investigates serious crimes, often against the clock as victims sometimes may still be in danger. Special attention is also given to the legally necessary, but sometimes frustrating, interaction with the judicial authorities, other police forces (this inefficiency required a major reform in reality), various experts and lawyers.
