Investigation that lasted decades ends with no convictions for 1982-85 rampage that took lives of 28 people

It is a murder mystery that gripped Belgium for decades and now, with the closure of the file on Friday, it may remain a cold case forever.

A gang went on a murderous rampage between 1982 and 1985, killing 28 people including children in a series of supermarket robberies, becoming known as the “Crazy Killers of Brabant”.
