[Zita.be] After a 'Clap for Climate' campaign on Thursday evening at Pukkelpop, climate activist Anuna De Wever and her friends were harassed by some festivalgoers. In addition, she was bombarded with bottles of urine and received death threats.
Anuna De Wever suddenly appeared in the Boiler Room on Thursday evening. She wanted the audience to participate in 'Clap for Climate', an action to demand more attention for the climate. However, that message - instead of the usual strong beats - turned out not to be the way of a number of festival-goers.
It even went so far that Anuna De Wever and her friends were harassed to the campsite by some festivalgoers. In addition, their party tent and a few other tents were destroyed, so that the security had to come on site.
"PELTED WITH BOTTLES OF URINE"
The daughter of Knack journalist Jeroen de Preter is part of the group of friends at Anuna De Wever. "I just had my daughter on the line, badly affected. After Anuna was spotted at their tent, young men kept them awake with death threats, pelted with bottles full of urine and destroyed their party tent. They now get protection from security, "writes De Preter on Twitter. |
