Dutch term or phrase: rekwireren (in this context)
From a court in the Netherlands:

De officier van justitie heeft *gerekwireerd* tot bewezenverklaring van het ten laste gelegde feit en gevorderd dat verdachte ter zake zal worden veroordeeld tot een onvoorwaardelijke gevangenisstraf voor de duur van 42 maanden met aftrek van voorarrest.

I would be glad for any suggestion as to the meaning of rekwireren in this context.
