However, they were imprisoned for 30 months for their role in combat.

Heuvelman, 27, died after being repeatedly kicked in the head during a brawl over a bar stool in July 2021. He slipped into a coma and later died in hospital.

Five other men involved in the fighting were sentenced to prison sentences ranging from 12 to 30 months, some with suspended sentences. All suspects, aged 18 to 20, admitted to participating in the brawl but claimed they did not attack Heuvelman.
