Alderman Rutger Dijksterhuis (spatial planning) says that the place where you bury your loved ones or want to be buried yourself, is often a place you feel connected to. “It is therefore understandable that more and more Amersfoort Muslims want to be buried in their own city. We not only have a legal obligation as a municipality to make this possible, but also a moral obligation as a society.”
