Brussels - Arson in psychiatric centre

BRUSSELS – Probably an angry ‘patient’ put fire to the psychiatric hospital Sanatia, which damaged a whole floor of the hospital. One room was completely destroyed, the rest of the floor damaged by the heavy fire. Several patients got slightly intoxicated and the whole hospital had to be evacuated. Forced psychiatric treatment is getting very current in Brussels and beyond, with police handing over arrested persons directly to the psychiatres instead of passing by Justice.
