The Amsterdam police have suspended nine employees and suspended one employee. The police say that internal investigation shows that employees shared “seriously transgressive and discriminatory messages” in WhatsApp groups. A spokesperson cannot say anything about the content.

“The precise nature and extent of the statements are still being investigated further,” says Amsterdam police chief Frank Paauw. “I can’t go into details because of the investigation, but I take what I’ve heard so far very seriously. That’s why we’re getting to the bottom of this.”

“Insult, bullying and discrimination have no place in our police organization and are at odds with the police that we want and must be: honest, reliable, courageous and connecting,” says the police chief.
