INTERVIEW. Minister Van Tigchelt after drug violence: “Many dealers in Brussels come from Morocco. I have arrangements to send them back” | Domestic

Deadly shootings, riot guns and arrogant drug dealers on chairs. Brussels seems to have turned into the Wild West, but our national sheriff — Minister of Justice Paul Van Tigchelt (Open Vld) — does not leave it at that. His plans? He presents it here. Send undocumented dealers back to their country of origin and isolate drug traffickers in their cells so that they too are silenced. “The drug bosses feel like they’re being hunted, I guarantee you that.”
