There was great frustration among police officers who were on duty in The Hague on Saturday at the blockade of the A12 by Extinction Rebellion activists. The failure to prosecute more than 1,500 arrests did not go down well with the police, confirmed Jan Struijs, chairman of the Dutch Police Union, the AD reported. During Saturday's blockade of the A12, 1,579 climate activists were arrested. Most protesters were subsequently released and will not be prosecuted. Furthermore, 40 people were arrested for criminal offenses such as graffiti or insults and will be prosecuted.
Police officers need to know more about racism and discrimination in society, and the police need to be structurally tougher on the problem. That's according to Dutch Police Union (NPB) President Jan Struijs in a response to remarks made by Police Chief Janny Knol of the Oost-Nederland Unit. In an interview in AD, the police chief said that racism is a structural problem in the police and must be tackled as a structural problem.
