Brussels-Four belgian refugees shelter provided by the Brussels criminal court acquitted. Among them journalists Anouk Van Gestel and Myriam Berghe. “A huge relief”, they said after the verdict.
Twelve defendants appeared at the beginning of november in the so-called ‘process of solidarity’. Among them, some of the volunteers that migrants had. So also a journalist Anouk Van Gestel, a 16-year-old Sudanese shelter offered. Van Gestel is editor-in-chief of the French-speaking vrouwenmagazine Marie Claire. Next to her was fellow journalist Myriam Berghe of Femme D’aujourd’hui on the beklaagdenbankje. They caught all 55 immigrants. Van Gestel had her calls asking for help. She wanted the boy as safe as possible is the way to travel. “He was not allowed to die, as eleven other young men that the attempt was made” was for the judge.
in Addition to the two journalistes were also a social worker and a man that shelter was provided to a homeless illegally persecuted. Together with eight others were to call for human smuggling and membership of a criminal organisation, because they transmigranten helped to England to achieve. The Brussels public prosecutor demanded the acquittal or the suspension for the four players involved.
