I don't know how it is in the Netherlands, but in Germany, if that demo has been forbidden after registering, it's a felony.
That has been like this for years and has happened quite a few times. Also, Demos are not forbidden because of political reasons (a judge would be removed from office immediately), but because it's a hazard that can't be controlled ,the police has not enough people or other reasons like that...

I think our definition of "dystopian" is very different then.
