Human rights group files complaint over preventive arrests in Antwerp

Original: Human rights group files complaint over preventive arrests in Belgium's Antwerp

A human rights organisation has filed a formal complaint over preventive arrests carried out in Antwerp, Belgium. The group argues that detaining people without charge ahead of potential offences violates fundamental rights. The complaint puts policing practices in the Belgian port city under scrutiny, and the case is likely to prompt debate about the balance between public security and civil liberties.

Why now: The filing raises concerns about civil liberties and police powers, making it a talking point in human rights debates.
