The case came to light after police received a report on October 14, 2026, that two underage girls were at an address in the Uitvlugt ressort together with three boys and may have been sexually abused.
Police officers went to the reported address to investigate the situation. The two girls were subsequently taken to the police station. According to their statements, the three boys allegedly committed sexual abuse or indecent acts.
Police arrested two suspects, both aged 20, later that same day. The third suspect, a 17-year-old boy, was arrested on Monday, November 9, 2026.
All three suspects were brought before the authorities and, following consultation with the Public Prosecution Service, detained pending further investigation.
The case has since been transferred to the Jeugdzaken department, which is continuing the investigation.
Police have so far not released further details about the circumstances under which the alleged abuse took place.
