It was around 4am when Belgian police officers on patrol noticed people gathering in front of a lodge rented on Airbnb in Tintigny, in the province of Luxembourg, RTL Belgium reports.

After obtaining authorisation from Luxembourg’s public prosecutor’s office, the police entered the home. 61 people were present: they came from France and the Grand Duchy. All were fined €750.

The organiser, a young woman of 20, had rented the lodge to celebrate her birthday. She was questioned by the police, who seized her cell phone and vehicle. If the young woman were to be released after her interrogation, then it won’t be her last time involved with the justice department, the prosecution said.
