Summary
A chilling video surfaces showing four masked men threatening a 28-year-old over stolen cocaine—claiming 1,200kg was snatched from a “Belgian friend in Spain” and demanding it back within 12 hours or everyone they love dies. The drama erupted after a deadly shooting on September 1 that killed a 51-year-old security guard and injured two officers, sparking a massive manhunt. Thirty-five arrests have been made so far, with suspects mostly from Belgium and France, recruited via encrypted apps. They were meant to carry out a planned attack at the victim’s property—but some walked out for the Netherlands “under protest.” Police also uncovered heavy weapons near a carpool lane, linking the operation to a known drug kingpin already serving 102 years—even though he wasn’t present. More guns were found today near Overasselt, deepening the investigation into this escalating international crime web.
