Vooruit chairman Conner Rousseau was in contact with several officers in the first days after his “possibly racist statements” at a café in Sint-Niklaas. And a few days later even with the chief of police. The politician himself now confirms the latter. His lawyer previously spoke about “text messages from high-ranking people”. It is now clear that this also concerned the chief of police. His lawyer later had contact with one of the investigators himself. And a former investigating judge calls this “nothing more or nothing less than a crime”.
