Two clients who had dealings with a suspect were arrested with narcotics when they left the café. The police also arrested the suspect and found money and six cocaine packets.

A search of his home also found 100 grams of cocaine and a cutting product for 243 grams.

The two people arrested, a 24-year-old man named PE and a 42-year-old man named LN, were made available to the Brussels public prosecutor's office.
