Summary
New European rules on asylum come into force, but the Dutch immigration service warns it will take a year to clear the backlog. An extradition treaty aimed at busting drug gangs is signed, while the net tightens around the latest "Mr Big". International students numbers fall for the first time in 20 years, but Dutch students are disappearing even faster. The Mauritshuis is allowed to keep a batch of 17th century paintings in a dispute that hinges on a sentence in a French will. And in sport, several key players are missing from Ronald Koeman's World Cup squad but a keyboard player is hoping to be called up to join them.
