Brussels crime lab fire: Five held over blaze 'started to destroy evidence'

Quote

Five people have been arrested over a fire at crime laboratories in Brussels that officials believe may have been started to destroy forensic evidence.

Prosecutor's spokeswoman Ine Van Wymersch said a car broke through fences at about 02:00 (00:00 GMT).

The car was then rammed into a building where forensic tests are conducted, before a fire was started. Police could not confirm if a bomb had exploded.

Ms Van Wymersch said the likely aim was to destroy "several files" inside.

 

Terrorists or ordinary criminals seeking to destroy the evidence against them or their associates?
