According to Belgian press, the federal police cessna 182 was cleared for a visual approach.
Upon short finals it got caught in wake turbulence of heavy traffic that had just landed on same RWY25R, toppled over and crashed and immediately caught fire.
The federal police pilot and the police officer who acted as observer had no chances in surviving.
My deepest sympathy and condolences to all whom they leave behind...
