Six suspects have been arrested after rioting in the city of Houthalen in Limburg that injured a police officer. Police arrested notorious Somali pirate leader Mohammed Abdi Hassan a.k.a. Afweyne (“Loud Mouth”) at Brussels airport upon arrival in Belgium; he and a high-ranking official in the Somali government, which is accused of protecting him, have both been detained. Security has been heightened since the extradition of convicted terrorist Nizar Trabelsi to the US to face terror charges.
