Bodegraven banishes conspiracy thinkers and activists from cemetery | Inland

The municipality says that the activists are being encouraged by conspiracy thinkers via social media. They believe wrongly, according to the municipality, that in Bodegraven there was a pedo-satanic network in which children were allegedly murdered. “Survivors feel very offended by the actions of these activists and conspiracy thinkers. In addition, these social media activists falsely accuse dozens of people of infanticide or involvement in this satanic pedo network, while there is no evidence whatsoever. People who are unfairly accused are very angry that these conspiracy thinkers are making serious allegations publicly. ”

Emergency ordinance

The municipality has instituted a so-called emergency ordinance. As a result, people who have no business there can be banned from the cemetery and punished if they do come there. That penalty can be a fine or sometimes even three months in prison.

In recent times, graves have also been visited by activists in other places. For example, Nieuwsuur previously reported that flowers and texts were left behind at the memorial stones of Marianne Vaatstra and Nicky Verstappen, to the dismay of the next of kin.
