It will be "individual decision" of each defendant to choose the interim suspension of the proceedings – paying 150 euros – or to go to trial. The solution proposed by the Public Prosecutor's Office is the same for all detainees.
The detainees in the first camp appeared in court this Tuesday, after the first session was postponed.
The 55 detainees of the police charges were heard this morning in court. The prosecution's accusation proposed to suspend the trial in exchange for a fine of 150 euros. Anyone who does not accept the proposal goes to trial.
The 55 demonstrators detained a week ago in Lisbon consider whether they accept the suspension of the trial or whether they choose to go to trial.
The defendants are suspected of disobedience, for allegedly having resisted when the PSP withdrew the tents of the Acampada de Lisboa da Pra a D. Pedro IV.
