A car seized by the Judicial Police, belonging to José Eduardo dos Santos (known as Xuxa), was handed over to Luís Neves, current director of the Counter-Terrorism Coordination Unit, who reportedly drove it during government functions. The former president of the Bar Association, Fernanda de Oliveira Frazão, classifies the transfer of seized assets to ministries by police forces as "completely illegal," emphasizing that the law is clear about the impossibility of transferring these assets to political entities. An former PSP official responsible for criminal investigation also confirms that the legislation is "unequivocal" in prohibiting the transfer of seized vehicles to politicians. Conversely, the PJ argues that the entire operation took place within the bounds of legality.
