The Brussels-West police zone announced on Saturday that a “discipline administrative file“was opened against several of its members involved in a fight on June 1 during a descent of the Lesse in a kayak.
Selon Sudinfoabout fifteen police officers from the intervention brigade of the Brussels-West police zone fought there with about twenty young people from Molenbeek.
“The police zone is following this case closely and will regularly contact the Namur Public Prosecutor’s Office about the progress of the investigation. Depending on the incriminating elements that will be brought to its attention, it will take the appropriate measures with regard to those responsible.“, also communicated the local police zone.
“The police zone nevertheless wishes to react to the allegations repeated in certain media concerning the fact that the police officers concerned would have prowled around the Athénée de Molenbeek-Saint-Jean where the young people concerned are educated. And that they even followed a student in the street. The police zone strongly denies these claims given that the officers in question were off duty from June 5-9.“, she wanted to clarify.
“The police zone has taken internal organizational measures so as to avoid any situation likely to create possible difficulties. Thus, the police officers concerned have been assigned to internal tasks, until further notice.“, did she say.
She added that a “discipline administrative file has been opened in order to be able to take the appropriate disciplinary measures“.
