What is the financial cost and frequency of the Dutch government's undisclosed practice of paying problematic asylum seekers to return to their home countries?

The Dutch Ministry of Asylum and Migration secretly paid substantial sums to problematic asylum seekers to return to their home countries. One case involved Hassan Roukas, who received thousands of euros in compensation, including home renovations, medical care, and mobility aids, in exchange for his return to Morocco. This practice deviates from the standard return policy, which excludes individuals with criminal records like Roukas.
