A Dutch judge has decided to keep two 17-year-old youths in detention, accusing them of hacking-related activities. One of them is in preventive custody, while the other is under house arrest. The father of one of the teenagers stated that his son used a 'Wi-Fi sniffer' to intercept data near important buildings in The Hague, including the Canadian embassy and the headquarters of Europol and Eurojust. The prosecution suspects possible state involvement, but no further details have been provided due to the age of the suspects. A new hearing will take place in two weeks.
