A potential VVD councillor in Almere
has been arrested for hacking into the computer accounts of celebrities in a
hunt for nude photos and videos, the Telegraaf reported on Tuesday.
Mitchell
van der K., who pulled out of the running to represent the VVD last month
citing personal circumstances, uploaded some of the explicit material to the
internet. One of his victims is vlogger Laura Ponticorvo, dozens of whose
private photos and videos appeared on the internet last year, the paper writes.
He also tried to hack into the computers of ex-hockey player Fatima de Moreira
de Melo and other celebrities, the paper said.
According to broadcaster NOS,
Van der K, who headed lifestyle website Manners magazine, has admitted to
hacking into iCloud accounts but denies having put the photos online.
The VVD
in Almere did not know until last week that the man had been the subject of a
police investigation lasting several months, Nos said.
