In the night from Saturday to Sunday, the police of Limburg disbanded a large illegal party with the help of the riot police that was held in the forest area in Geulle in the municipality of Meerssen. About a hundred partygoers have received a ticket.
Police arrived around 3:30 am and found an estimated one hundred and one hundred and fifty people. The public continued to arrive via various forest paths.
With the help of the Mobile Unit, the party ended and about a hundred people present received a ticket. Eleven people have been arrested because they could not identify themselves.
The organizers of what the police in one twitter message calls a “Halloween rave party”, you risk a fine of 4,000 euros. All equipment present has been confiscated.
The police tracked down the party by obtaining information about the preparations. Together with reports of noise nuisance, this led to the location.
Mayor Annemarie Penn-te Strake of Maastricht and chairman of the South Limburg Safety Region finds it incomprehensible that there are still people who do not care about the measures. “Together we must reduce this virus. Together with the police we therefore take action against people who break the rules. This is not allowed, this is not possible.”
Due to the corona measures, it is prohibited to organize or participate in events.
