ARNHEM - Special units of police, justice and the prison system have started a large-scale search in the prison in Arnhem this evening to prevent the liquidation of a prisoner.
Search teams of a total of 150 investigators searched cells and searched prisoners. A targeted search was made for data carriers such as smartphones.
The immediate reason for the action is information about a possible attack within the walls of the Arnhem penitentiary institution. The assassination attempt would be carried out because of a fight within the criminal milieu.
Rare situation
Inspection dogs were also used during the inspections. Large-scale searches are more common, but rarely because of indications that prisoners want to kill each other. Justice did not want to make any further announcements about the results of the search tonight.
