Brussels, (Brussels Morning)- Brussels Prime Minister Rudi Vervoort (PS) also calls for the police to be strengthened to tackle drug crime. He does this after the twelfth shooting took place in Sint-Jans-Molenbeek on Monday in just a few months.
Despite the increase in violence , the municipality of Molenbeek and Minister of the Interior Annelies Verlinden (CD&V) are shifting responsibility towards each other. “In the first instance, it is up to the local police to provide and organise the necessary police capacity,” said Verlinden at BRUZZ after Molenbeek’s mayor Catherine Moureaux (PS) asked for reinforcements .
