Zoetermeer vehicle arson surveillance

Overview

In Zoetermeer, Mayor Michel Bezuijen has implemented temporary camera surveillance on Parkdreef in the Seghwaert district. This measure follows a series of vehicle arsons occurring between August and October, including a recent incident that forced dozens of residents to evacuate their homes.

The surveillance is intended to act as a deterrent and assist in monitoring public order. The cameras are scheduled to remain in place for approximately three months, with the measure set to conclude in January 2027.
