Anderlecht: citizens call to elected officials about police violence

Two stops of citizens were carried out simultaneously Thursday evening, respectively, to the municipal council of Anderlecht – common marked by the death of the young Adil in April after a chase with police – and to one of Saint-Gilles. The municipalities are part of the police zone Brussels-Midi.

Anderlecht, the mayor was asked about the possibility of introducing receipts for identity checks and the installation of cameras in the police stations and police vehicles in addition to the deployment of bodycams. Fabrice Cumps said, for answer, that his vision of the development of the forces of law and order was based on the proximity and that there had been a question at the coming of the minister of Security and Interior, Pieter De Crem, to make the local police a pilot area for the bodycams. "I was surprised on Monday that the chief of police has said that it had to be able to judge when you can shoot an agent or not ", has commented on the municipal councillor of PTB André Crespin, in reference to the last board of police. "In all circumstances, you can shoot a police officer. After, the use of the images, blurring, etc is another thing ".
