The police will investigate the role of the man, who has no fixed place of residence or residence. In ‘needle spiking’ victims are pricked with a hypodermic needle.
Much is still unclear about the phenomenon of ‘needle spiking’. In several countries, including the Netherlands, reports have recently been made of people who say they have been injected with a needle and that they are drugged in this way at festivals or while going out.
Also in Amsterdam in recent weeks “a handful” of declarations of the injections have been made. This is reported by the police in the capital. The victims say they got a needle in their leg or arm while going out, but often didn’t notice it at the time.
The pricking of people with needles was big news in the United Kingdom last October. Hundreds of reports were made in just a few months. But also in the United Kingdom no proof of injection has ever been found.
