Five major suspects are set to face court after riots broke out in Brussels following a weekend demonstration, the capital’s public prosecutor said Monday, as authorities laid out the next legal steps. The unrest started Saturday morning when 500 to 600 protesters marched peacefully between Brussels-Central and Brussels-Midi. Things turned violent around 12:30, with clashes between police and troublemakers. Police carried out dozens of arrests for alleged offences including deliberate arson, armed rebellion, acts of violence, vandalism, weapons possession, and threats and insults directed at officers. Police reported 19 arrests at the time, involving 11 adults and eight minors. Of the minors detained, only three are from Brussels, with the others coming from Walloon Brabant and West Flanders. A juvenile suspect was placed at the disposal of the Brussels youth judge, while other minors were referred to prosecutors in their home judicial districts. “Meanwhile, five major suspects have been directly summoned to appear before the criminal court,” the prosecutor’s office said. Hearing dates were set for February 5 for one defendant and February 9 for three defendants on the French-speaking side. A separate date was set for January 11 for one person before a Dutch-language criminal chamber. Still among adults, two alleged rioters received a strict legal reminder and will be subject to follow-up. Another major suspect reached a settlement of 1,000 euros. According to police figures, officers made 150 arrests on Saturday, including 32 judicial arrests and 118 administrative arrests.
