Minister: More People Should be Detained for an Entire Weekend


Minister of the Interior Guusje ter Horst (Labor) thinks that people who are arrested for violence over the weekend should be kept in custody for the whole weekend. This has been the policy in the town of Amersfoort, and a few other regions have also adopted it. However, some police regions are not willing to hold people who commit a crime on Friday night in a cell till Monday morning.
