Belgian-Moroccan Man’s Murder Reenacted in Cocaine Trafficking Case

More than a year after the murder of the Belgian-Moroccan Hilal Makhout, a reconstruction took place this Thursday in Rochefort-Forzée at the scene of the crime, a vacation chalet, in the presence of the three alleged perpetrators.
According to the investigation opened on March 12, 2019, the victim, Hilal Makhout, a Belgian of Moroccan origin, would have been murdered for the disappearance of a 3-kilogram cocaine shipment, worth 100,000 euros on the street.
Surprised in his garage by masked men on March 9, he had been mistreated and tortured by several masked men before being abandoned a few days later in a vacation chalet in Rochefort-Forzée.
The same investigation reveals that three suspects had been arrested and placed in pre-trial detention, namely the victim’s roommate, his brother and another young man from Peer.
