Three suspects arrested in connection with explosion in The Hague

More arrests might follow

Last night, three men were arrested for their possible involvement in Saturday’s explosions in the Hague. Several cars were also seized.

The news comes directly from a police spokesperson, writes the NOS.

The investigation continues

The three men are currently being held in custody, where the only outside contact they’re allowed is with their lawyers.

Later this week, they will appear before the examining magistrate.

As for the seized vehicles, it is unclear whether they include the car that was seen racing away from the disaster scene.

Drug lab hypothesis

In the meantime, the investigation to ascertain the causes of the explosions continues, and the police do not exclude making more arrests.

While no possibilities have been ruled out, according to the spokesperson, “there are no indications that a drug lab was located in the buildings.”

Know anything about the incident? As the investigation continues, the police have asked people to come forward with any valuable information by filling out the Tip Form or calling 0800-6070.
