“His professional environment was not always easy and Frank was someone who gave a lot of himself to his work,” he added.
The court also heard from two other very close friends of Frank Goes, who described him in the same way. “He was one of my best friends. After work, we would go running together, it gave us the opportunity to talk about everything: politics, work?” said one of them. “He worked a lot, but he was also a family man. He placed a lot of importance on spending time with his wife and children. He was quite reserved and was not the type to open up much about his private life or professional, but he sometimes confided to a certain degree,” he said.
Furthermore, several people who worked alongside Frank Goes, notably engineers, workers and members of the Federation of General Construction Contractors (FABA) which Frank Goes chaired, described him as a great worker, a accomplished but humble man, and an upright, strict and correct business leader. “We can’t say anything about this man,” exclaimed one of these witnesses, “what happened to him was the result of a purely and simply wicked act.”
Five men must answer for the assassination of Frank Goes, but also for the attempted assassination of an architect.

He claimed that he had not intended to kill and that he had been hired to “cause incapacity for work” to the two victims.
Ismaël Diallo, aged 28, and Gradi Kato Irenge, aged 29, are accused of having provided essential assistance to the author, in particular by providing him with a car and carrying out scouting with him. The two men do not deny having helped Dylan Duby, but they deny having knowledge of his project.

Youssef Allali, a 37-year-old entrepreneur from Etterbeek, is accused of being the sponsor. He admitted to having mandated Yaser Abau to “put pressure” on Frank Goes, but not on the architect who was also targeted. He denies that there was any question of attacking the victim.
