Belgian Police Closing in on Church of Scientology

On April 12, 2008, Belgian Federal Police raided the Church of Scientology's main office in Brussels and seized documents, financial records and computer equipment from the Brussels HQ of the Church of Scientology ... and then formally sealed off the building.
The reports stated that the Church in Belgium was being investigated for extortion and fraud for allegedly posting false job openings in newspapers and then attempting to get those who applied to join the Church. Several ex-members of the Church had also reportedly approached authorities with accusations of intimidation and extortion.
Police in Belgium have been investigating the Church for nearly ten years which resulted in the April raid.
No arrests were made on this occasion, but some employees of the Church were detained and questioned by police.
The Org was re-opened a few days later.

@Algonquin81 You are a joke man, by saying this you sound like a complete ass with no respect for anyone!

[Algonquin81]

@ServantOfChristendom christianity is just like Islam in the sense its both radical in its teachings, it both has rape murder and other atrocities in it. Most importantly, aside from believing in the same Abrahamic God, they both go out of their way to preach their unproven nonsense with threats of eternal damnation. All religions are a joke.

@Algonquin81 I agree my reaction was way too radical, in that period there was a group in Belgium (sharia4belgium) who really pissed me off, they still do it now, but I changed my opinion about it.. I still believe muslims have to adapt to Europe or just leave! The biggest part should leave Europe!

@ServantOfChristendom You religious ideaology is no better than the scientologists. Fuck scientology and the deluded, oppressive regime of christianity.

Strasburg and France gave Scientology 30000$ because Russians said it can't be a religion in their country .. Fucking shame on you EU . What the fuck if you can't see what happens too people that were in there that means you are too stupid to be in high positions. Damn Traitors.

[ServantOfChristendom]

Scientology should be banned, there are commercials at NatGeo for Scientology! Keep them out of Europe, Keep them out of the world, just like Islam, leave Europe or we'll kill you! The army of Christ destroys all infidels and all the Islam immigrants!

The Begians have got the right idea,Close these Cultheads down.

[3030anon]

Just like with their ideals of "always attack, never defend", the cult only takes money, never giving.

I hope the police continue their investigation and get them shut down.
