Kidnapping Mr. Heineken

Willem Holleeder (Sam Worthington) went on to become a kingpin in the Dutch underworld, being held responsible for ordering several contract killings, amongst which, the 2003 assassination of his former best friend and co-kidnapper Cor van Hout (Jim Stugess). When the film was released in 2015, Holleeder was in custody awaiting trial for many of those contracts, however, not in relation to the Cor van Hout case. In July 2019, Holleeder was found guilty of five murders and ordered to serve a life sentence.

The end-titling states that Mr. Heineken died in 2003. He died on the 3 January 2002.

SPOILERS: Epilogue:  "An anonymous tip first led the police to suspect Cor and his friends. The police never revealed who sent the tip or what it said.   After his kidnapping, Freddy Heineken created one of the world's foremost private security firms.   He died in 2003.   Jan 'Cat' Boellard served 12 years. Martin 'Brakes' Erkamps served an 8-year sentence. Frans 'Spikes' Meijer escaped from a criminal psychiatric hospital and fled to Paraguay.  Reporter Peter R. de Vries tracked him down 10 years later. He was extradited to the Netherlands to serve his time.  Cor Van Hout and Willem Holleeder each received an 11-year sentence. Returning to crime,  they rose to power to become the 'godfathers of the Netherlands.'   In 2003, Cor was gunned down by an assassin.   His killer was never identified. The ransom was the largest ever paid for an individual at the time.  A significant portion of the money was never recovered. After the kidnappers divided the cash, they were never together again as a group."
