DUTCH CURFEW EXTENDED DESPITE COURT ORDER

A court in the Netherlands ruled the country’s lockdown mandate a “violation of the right to freedom of movement and privacy.” Brushing off the court order, politicians passed an emergency order on Friday that extended the lockdown.
Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s office quickly announced the legislation after a court in the Hague ruled that the mandated curfew did not meet the standard of “special urgency.”
U.S. News reported that the countrywide curfew has been in place from 9 PM to 4:30 AM since 23 January, and the curfew has been extended until 3 March. The initial report of the curfew led to some calling the country a “police state.”
The foundation Viruswaarheid, which means “virus truth,” was the group that brought the legal challenge.
Euronews.com reported that the court’s ruling and subsequent legislation has been a source of confusion in the nation. Police there “have actually stopped handing out a lot of fines over the past few days because the situation is so unclear.”
