Arno van Kessel, a Dutch lawyer, was arrested on June 11, 2025, and remains in pre-trial detention in Vught prison as of July 26, 2025. While formal charges have not yet been publicly revealed, his arrest is reportedly linked to alleged "anti-institutional" activities. Van Kessel was reportedly preparing a lawsuit against individuals such as Bill Gates, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, and World Economic Forum chair Klaus Schwab concerning alleged COVID-19 vaccine injuries. Some reports suggest a connection between his arrest and this legal action.
