[Belgium]: Getting the voice out - The Afghans in the closed centre.

The  162 Afghans arrested with violence during actions this week were released due to a shortage of places in the detention centers.

Many other Afghans who do not participate in the actions,were arrested and imprisoned over the last weeks. As if the government is taking a revenge.

There are more than fifty of them at this moment in the closed detention centres. If  they have no passport or “laissez passez” necessary for there deportation,the autorities give them a  “  European ” laissez passez, a document of which the legality is questioned by the lawyers of the Afghan refugees.
