| quote = Darline Devos, voorzitster van het comité Miss België, zit met de hele zaak Chehaima verveeld maar ziet geen reden om maatregelen te nemen. "Na een grondig gesprek met het Brussels parket heb ik vernomen dat in heel het dossier Bilal geen enkel bezwarend element tegen Halima Chehaima voorkomt. Het parket heeft ons formeel bevestigd dat haar niets ten laste kan worden gelegd."
