VTM says it is very sorry that the judge has not heard the channel and that this broadcasting ban was only pronounced on the day of the broadcast of the first episode.
“The Castle Murder” is a journalistic retelling of the castle murder, one of the most discussed murder cases of the past decade, VTM reports in a press release. Ten years after the facts, the makers reconstruct the investigation into the murder of Stijn Saelens and examine the role of the media. The functioning of the courts and the legal profession in this case are also discussed.
VTM says it respects the court’s decision and therefore not broadcast the series pending a ruling from the judge in preliminary relief proceedings.
