A school in Groningen is responding with shock after a 13-year-old student was arrested in connection with the deaths of her parents. Police discovered the bodies of a 53-year-old couple at their home in Meerstad, near Groningen, late last night. The daughter is currently the primary suspect in the case, though details surrounding the incident remain undisclosed. The Montessori Vaklyceum, where the girl is a student, has established a support team with the local health authority (GGD) to provide counseling for students, staff, and parents. The school is creating space for dialogue and offering both group and individual conversations. Local authorities and community teams are also providing support to residents in Meerstad, with meetings held this morning for questions and victim assistance. Police investigations are ongoing at the family home.
