Three Polish suspects released after leaving suitcases at Haarlem station

Three Polish suspects released after leaving suitcases at Haarlem station

Three Polish suspects arrested for leaving unattended suitcases at Haarlem station in September have been released from custody, though the investigation continues. The incident previously led to a temporary evacuation and suspension of train services after concerns regarding potential explosives proved to be unfounded.

Three Polish men, aged 37, 37, and 62, who were arrested for leaving two unattended suitcases at the Haarlem train station in late September, have been released from police custody. Although they are no longer detained, the three men remain suspects in the ongoing investigation into the disturbance of public order. None of the individuals have a fixed address in the Netherlands. On September 29, the discovery of the suitcases triggered a major security response at the station around 10:15 in the morning. Authorities evacuated the facility and set up a large security perimeter, which caused significant delays and the temporary suspension of all train traffic. The alarm was lifted approximately two hours later after explosive ordnance disposal experts determined that the luggage contained nothing more than clothing. While the station reopened, police stated that the legal investigation into the incident is still actively continuing.
