Cabinet considers tracking released terror offenders; mayors question plan

The Dutch government wants to keep closer watch on some people convicted of terrorism after they leave prison.

Many cannot be deported because their countries of origin will not take them back.

The government is considering electronic tracking and rules about where they can go.

Mayors of four major cities say these steps do not solve the deeper problems and could tie someone to a particular city.
