Asylum and Migration
Arrest, Police Dogs, and Helicopter at AZC Demonstration
Police arrested one person for incitement during an unauthorized demonstration against an asylum seeker center (AZC) in Delft on Saturday. Dozens of protesters gathered near the Kleveringweg location, waving Dutch flags before marching toward the entrance. Mayor Alexander Pechtold dissolved the protest, prompting multiple police units to block traffic and form a line to prevent entry. Authorities deployed police dogs and a helicopter to monitor the situation. The event coincided with the national Open AZC Day, organized by the Central Agency for Asylum Seekers Reception (COA), which allowed visitors to meet residents at various facilities, including the nearby Manderspark location.
