Synthetic drug lab dismantled in Meulebeke
For the arrests and searches on and around the farm, the Federal Judicial Police (FGP) of West Flanders worked together with the PZ Midow. The dog support service of the federal police arrived on the scene with drug and explosives dogs. A hazardous materials adviser from the Fire Brigade and the Clan Lab Response Unit (CRU) of the Federal Police also stepped down. The CRU supports interventions in clandestine synthetic drug production sites and has expertise in research in hazardous places where chemicals are stored or where a lab is in operation. After all, a chemical process cannot simply be stopped.
The drug lab will be further dismantled after traces have been recorded.
