(Dutch News) A number of prisoners held in the terrorist wing of the high-security prison in Vught have been placed in solitary confinement after they made an apparently coordinated effort to disrupt the two minutes’ silence on Remembrance Day.
They will remain there for a maximum of two weeks, while the investigation into what happen[ed] continues, justice minister Sander Dekker told local paper Brabants Dagblad. “Shouting insulting slogans at such a time shows a lack of respect and is unacceptable,” Dekker said.
The men — possibly as many as eight — reportedly shouted “Allahu Akbar” during the two-minute period, during which the Dutch remember those who died in World War II and all subsequent wars.
