Public ProsecutorClaims of violence at the Grand-Ducal Court have not been confirmed

RTL Today
An inquiry into these claims had been opened on 3 February, after claims of violence at the Grand-Ducal Court by journalist Pol Schock in the RTL "Presseclub".

A wide range of people were heard over the past months, such as special representative to the Prime Minister Jeannot Waringo and a number of former Court employees.

The journalist's claims could not be confirmed during these hearings, according to a document from the Prosecution.

Pol Schock had never named his source, invoking the protection of sources as defined in article 7 of the law about freedom of expression in the media.

The Prosecution adds that no current or former Court employee has come forward during these months to confirm the journalist's claims.

As a result, the affair has been closed without further action.
