PVV MP claims death threats

MP for the PVV, Dion Graus, claims to have been threatened by a group of youths in Zwolle. The police say that Graus reported the crime, and will be back to file a statement. On the television program Kneven en Van den Brink, Graus said that it was four young Moroccan boys, and that he had to run for his life. The youths were held back by police, but that one of them was yelling that he would beat and kill Graus. He says that this is not the first time this has happened. "After eight years, I'm sick of it." The PVV politician says that he needs protection, and that just like their party leader, Geert Wilders, he is just as easily recognized on the street.
