Van Quickenborne shows his own images: ‘No pee movement, a witch hunt is underway’
The minister is talking about a damage operation that would come from the police union. “What I show are images, private images that I release from cameras placed at my home at the request of the security services. Some could interpret a certain fragment as a peeing movement. I don’t remember exactly what it was. But say that you can deduce from that that I knew what happened there six, seven hours before, I think is very far-reaching and does not correspond to the truth. For I, like many others, was completely surprised by what happened. “

Another surveillance image shows that the minister briefly opens the door of a police station and then closes it again. According to the minister, the images are misinterpreted by some journalists. “Look, there was interpretation by the VRT yesterday, very public, seven minutes in the news, primetime: minister in disrepute, with all kinds of suggestive interpretations that are not consistent with the truth. I am now the victim of a witch hunt that has been conducted becomes against me.”
A witch hunt that, according to Van Quickenborne, could come from the corner of the police union. “Yes, this is very much like a damage operation. Certain people cannot live with the fact that certain people can leave at 58, that we extinguish that, cannot live with that. My former chairman was first damaged by physically intimidating him Egbert Lachaert. And now people are trying to get my skin but I’m very calm about it, I won’t let that happen.”
