The 37-year-old Brussels man suspected of being responsible for the fatal attack in a nursing home in Tierlemont was arrested by the Leuven investigating judge on suspicion of homicide and attempted homicide, the Leuven prosecutor’s office announced. .
According to the suspect’s lawyer, contact with the Brussels resident is very complicated at the moment. “I don’t think he understands everything very well”, nor that his beatings led to death, she explains.
The man is suspected of entering a nursing home and attacking two residents there, an 89-year-old woman and a 91-year-old man. The latter succumbed to his injuries this Saturday, at the hospital, where the two victims had been taken.
The suspect had recently been interned in a Brussels psychiatric hospital, said his lawyer. He had also already been sentenced by the courts, but not for assault and battery.
