EWagensveld stated that he was arrested on suspicion of illegal protesting in the empty Janskerkhof in Utrecht during an interview with PowNed. He said that he was only giving an interview and claimed that the Public Prosecution Service counted the interviewer and cameraman to make it a group protest. According to EWagensveld, the Public Prosecution Service demanded a fine of €250 and two weeks of conditional imprisonment, but the judge acquitted him. He wondered if there were double standards in the Netherlands, as police, mayors, and the Public Prosecution Service, according to him, often did not intervene in XR and pro-Palestinian demonstrations. He also criticized the Ministry of Justice and Security, which he claimed remained silent about abuse of power. #demonstratierecht #vrijheidvanmeningsuiting #justitie (translated)
