It is not clear if the ex-soldier is at home, since he himself announced a few hours ago on social networks that he was in Norway, according to information from Nieuwsblad. According to neighbors, the man had psychological problems. He was also said to have been admitted to an institution for a period of time.

“I will survive this in the wild. I am at home here. In my house you will find books, the Akashic records and a book on shamanism. My back door is open, my neighbor has a little one, we can’t make too much noise. Take this into account. My mission is complete,” he said on social media.
According to a ruling posted on his Facebook page, his security clearance was revoked following his dismissal from the army. We also read that the man was a member of a motorcycle gang known for traveling with loaded guns, ammunition, knives, gloves and balaclavas.

This case is reminiscent of that of Jürgen Conings. On May 17, 2021, a large-scale operation was launched to find the 46-year-old soldier, known for his sympathies with the far right, who had stolen heavy weapons from the Leopoldsburg barracks and threatened several people, including virologist Marc Van Ranst, a few days ago.
