Four people arrested for killing Albanian, Belgian police in Brussels

KIn connection with the murder of an Albanian citizen in Brussels, near the headquarters of the European Parliament, individuals have been arrested and held by Belgian authorities.

The same person allegedly killed a Belgian policeman a few hours later.

The event took place on October 12, 2026, while news was reported by Belgian media.

By The Brussels Times, the Albanian had no criminal precedents in Belgium.

However, the murder is allegedly linked to clashes in the world of narcotics, and it may have been a murder of payment.

After the events, three suspects were arrested in Almería, Spain, and another at a train station in Paris.

According to reports, all four have moved to Belgium.

Meanwhile, two other people were arrested in Brussels shortly after the killings.

One of them has been released due to lack of sufficient evidence, while the other continues to be held in custody.

All suspects are from Brussels and are recognised by police for suspected links to narcotics facilities.
