● Provision of training in de-escalation tactics for all OCPD officers, which must include training in interactions with persons who have mental health issues as well as training that includes cultural sensitivity.

In Den Haag zijn honderden mensen samengekomen om te demonstreren tegen racisme en politiegeweld. De deelnemers van de Black Lives Matter-demonstratie dragen mondkapjes en houden afstand van elkaar.

NOS-verslaggever Hasan Coşkun vroeg ze waarom zij het belangrijk vinden om op het Malieveld te staan. Ook vraagt hij hoe zij hebben gekeken naar het protest op de Dam, waar geen afstand werd gehouden.
