This morning the police arrested the convicted Brabant arms dealer Jan B. at his home in Hulten. After the arrest, the criminal investigation department started an investigation in the field.
B. was arrested for possession of weapons. Agents raided the house at 4:45 AM.
According to a spokesperson, the investigation will last until the end of the afternoon. In addition to police officers, police dogs and other teams are also present.
B. is known to the police and the judiciary. In 2017, he was sentenced to five years and seven months in prison for arms trade, Omroep Brabant writes.
In addition, he has been sentenced to two years’ imprisonment for the disappearance of the body of a former motorcycle club member No Surrender. That sentence was later withdrawn for lack of evidence. He also received a suspended sentence for threatening the former mayor of the municipality of Gilze-Rijen.
