In Belgium, the police are working hard to find an armed soldier who is considered a dangerous right-wing extremist and who has threatened a well-known virologist, among others. The soldier went into hiding with weapons and
left a "worrying" letter, including threats against the state and public figures, said a spokesman for the Belgian public prosecutor. According to Belgian media reports, the 40-50-year-old soldier could have stolen a rocket launcher, machine gun, pistol and protective equipment.
The "most worrying weapons" were discovered in his car on Tuesday evening. "There is evidence that he is violent and the past 24 hours have shown that the man is an acute danger," said the minister.
The soldier's threats were directed against Marc Van Ranst, a leading scientist and virologist in Belgium, among others. The manhunt was concentrated in the Flanders region, near the border with the Netherlands.
