They are tasked to help local law enforcement in the maintenance of law and order, and to carry out border patrol and a..the Antwerp-based Salafist organization that had campaigned to introduce Sharia law to Belgium before single-handedly making Belgium the highest per capita supplier of jihadis to Syria in Europe. There was a big trial in Antwerp in 2015, but most of those convicted were in absentia...anti-smuggling operations.... deployed at a checkpoint in the Omer Shah area close to the border signalled a convoy of vehicles moving towards the border to stop.
