In broad daylight is a thief last Thursday, the parketgebouw of Brussels invaded. He is binnengewandeld in the office of the law doctor, and has the autopsieverslagen stolen from all the victims of the attacks of 22 march in Brussels and Zaventem. Those were all on the same hard drive. There is a 27-year-old suspect was arrested and under arrest warrant, and it appears tomorrow before the Brussels council chamber.
According to judicial sources, was the offender not only to run off with the external hard drive, but also with other stuff, such as a voice recorder, so it seems that it is not a targeted theft of the autopsy went. The arrested suspect has no link with the attacks of march 22, or the victims. According to the public prosecutor in Brussels denies the man any involvement in the theft. The theft has no consequences for the process. The official documents are already down to the office of the clerk of the court. The theft is therefore no impediment to the ongoing investigation.
The public prosecutor goes to the next of kin now one by one contact. “This is very amazing news. We ask ourselves why specifically these items are stolen. It is fairly incomprehensible, the last thing you would expect, that interest exists for such information,” explains Philippe Vansteenkiste, chairman of the slachtoffervereniging V-Europe. The federal public prosecutor's office regrets that the victims of the attacks through the press must learn that there is autopsy have been stolen.
