The Molenbeek municipal councilor Hicham Chakir (PS) is said to have spent 10 days in a cell. In any case, this is what our colleagues from Bruzz reveal. The adviser’s name would have appeared in a money laundering case. He was reportedly arrested in mid-September at Zaventem airport.
The prosecution does not communicate the reasons, but confirms to Bruzz the arrest of the municipal councilor and his conditional release last Monday.
Former driver of the mayor Françoise Schepmans (MR), he made his debut in politics under the label of the MR. In 2018, Hicham Chakir finally joined the PS.
The principal concerned has not yet responded to our interview request.
