Counsel Ricardo Sá Fernandes confirmed that most of the 82 detainees detained in October rejected the interim suspension of the case. MP may still file the case.
Demonstrators arrested on the night of 19 to 20 October attended this Friday at the Lisbon Campus of Justice, where the position of the majority of the defendants was known
Most of the 82 protesters detained during the housing protests in Lisbon decided to go to trial. The arrests took place in the early mornings of 20 and 25 October, in Rossio, during PSP interventions that are now under investigation.
The lawyer Ricardo Sá Fernandes, representing demonstrators from the Acampada de Lisboa, appealed to the "good democratic sense" of the Public Prosecutor's Office's hierarchy regarding detainees in the housing protests, after the majority decided to go to trial.
The defendants who have accepted the provisional suspension of the proceedings will have to donate EUR 150 to an IPSS and, if they comply with that decision and do not repeat, the case will be filed after 45 days.
