Police to Compensate Photographer Pushed into Water in The Hague

RTL Nieuws25 September · 22:131 hour ago

The Dutch police will compensate a Spanish photographer for equipment damaged after an officer pushed him into water during a confrontation between riot police and far-right demonstrators in The Hague. The incident occurred near the Malieveld field, where the photographer was reporting on the unrest. While police stated the push was intended to create working space in a chaotic situation, journalist unions NVJ and PersVeilig criticized this explanation as implausible given available footage. The photographer is currently in contact with the police and union representatives to resolve the matter.
