THE HAGUE – An Amsterdam appeals court upheld Monday the terror conviction of an Afghan asylum-seeker who stabbed two American tourists, seriously injuring them, at Amsterdam’s main railway station in 2018. The court said he took a train from Germany to the Dutch capital to avenge what he perceived as insults to Islam and didn't know his victims were Americans. “The appeals court calls it a cowardly attack,” it said in a statement. The court said that the attacker only expressed remorse during the appeals case. The attacker was ordered to pay them a total of nearly 3 million euros ($3.55 million) in damages.
