Night shop in Olen closed for a month after discovery of illegal vapes, snus, and cigarettes

The mayor of Olen, Kris Gebruers, has temporarily closed a night shop for one month due to the discovery of illegal products, including vapes and snus. This closure follows repeated violations found by the police. Gebruers emphasizes the importance of protecting residents, especially youth, from illegal trade. He hopes the closure will prompt the shop owner to comply with regulations. The local police will increase monitoring of the shop upon reopening, with potential for longer closures if violations continue. Regular checks on other night shops in the area are also being conducted to combat undermining crime.
