Dutch woman 'called boyfriend 65,000 times'

[Joey]

A Dutch woman who called a man 65,000 times in the past year - an average of 178 calls a day - is due in court later to face charges of stalking.

The man told police he had been bombarded with calls, texts and emails from the woman.

Lawyers say the 42-year-old woman claimed to be in relationship with the man and denied that her actions were excessive.

The 62-year-old man denies that they were in a relationship.

The police raided the woman's home in Rotterdam and seized a number of mobile phones and several computers.

The BBC's Anna Holligan in The Hague says a judge at a preliminary hearing granted the woman bail on the condition that she leave the man alone.

But just a couple of hours after being released, she allegedly called him again, says our correspondent.

She has been kept in custody ever since, and is due to appear before a judge in The Hague later.

Tell me about it... if I was getting 178 calls a day there's no way I would have taken over a year to report it.

I agree, there's no way you'd put up with 178 calls a day unless you were leading them on. Surely?

There's a guy at my job whose girlfriend calls him a million times a day. It's always for stupid crap like "what are you doing now?", "who are you with?". Once, he stopped answering his cell phone so she called the office and told the front desk that she was his sister and that there was a family emergency. He's gets all worked up and worried only to pick up the line and hear her voice on the other end.
