Brasschaat / Kapellen / Putte-Kapellen –

The facts are, unfortunately, no exception. Since the start of the lockdown, the police have received more and more reports of violence among young people, in some cases even with weapons. Yet many victims or their parents do not go to the police for fear of reprisals.
