Kilometres-long guard of honour and a minute’s silence as police officer killed in Schaarbeek stabbing is laid to rest | VRT NWS: news

Police officers and members of the public across Belgium have paid tribute to Thomas Monjoie, the police officer stabbed to death in Schaarbeek (Brussels) last week. While thousands of people, many of whom police officers, gathered outside the funeral parlour in Waremme where the 29-year-old’s funeral service was held on Friday morning, elsewhere guards of honour totalling several kilometres in length were held at numerous locations the length and breadth of the country.
