Initially, the woman’s fall on November 2, 2021 was considered an accident but an investigation was nevertheless opened. The man said the victim must have slipped while taking photos while he was tending to their dogs. The woman’s body was found at the foot of the rock, on the banks of the Ourthe.

The file landed in May 2022 in Turnhout, in the judicial district of Antwerp. According to the prosecution, “additional elements” recently emerged and the man was placed under arrest last week.
The suspect denies any involvement in the fall of his partner, confirms his lawyer. “I therefore requested his release before the council chamber, given that there is no proof of guilt in my opinion. The ‘additional’ elements mentioned mainly concern a potential motive that the investigators believe they can discern, as well as elements resulting from a computer investigation.”
