An animal rights activist - known in the Netherlands as 'the vegan streaker' - has been arrested on suspicion of planning an attack on queen Beatrix, the Dutch public prosecutor's office confirmed on Tuesday. Gerard Spong, the attorney of the 24-year-old Peter J., told reporters about the charges earlier.
J. was taken into custody from his mother's house in the southern town of Vught on Monday. The police searched two houses and confiscated two computers, a prosecutor's spokesperson said. The activist has also been charged with illegal possession of weapons, although his lawyer said no arms were found in the searches.
