In this episode, we cover a foreign hazing case taking place at the Catholic University of Leuven in Leuven, Belgium. In 2018, 20-year-old Sanda Dia made the decision to join a prestigious fraternity in order to make helpful connections with the elites. His recruitment took a deadly turn during his initiation period. Follow us as we delve into Sanda Dia’s twisted “baptism” at the hands of the Reuzegom fraternity and the injustice that followed.
