One brother, already known to Brussels police as a hard drug dealer according to a press release, was arrested on the Rue de Wand in Laeken.
A search of his car and later his home by officers and two police dogs, Nitro and Narko, led to the arrest of the man’s older brother in connection with the same drug trafficking case.
While the men live together in Flanders, police say they were active in the Brussels region.
