Previous arrests
Two arrests had already been made earlier. On December 17, a 52-year-old suspect from Maastricht was arrested. Two days later, an 18-year-old man from Nieuwegein was taken into custody. These two suspects are under full restrictions, meaning they may only contact their lawyer. They were brought before the council chamber, which decided they will remain in custody for 30 days.
The investigation into the violent home robbery continues unabated.
