The national direction of the Judicial Police ordered the transfer of coordinator David Freitas to the Institute of Judicial Police and Criminal Sciences in Loures. The decision comes after Freitas publicly reported suspicions of illegal wiretaps.
David Freitas was coordinating a structure of the PJ when he decided to publicly communicate the suspicions of illegal wiretaps. The transfer represents a significant change in his position within the police institution.
The Institute of Judicial Police and Criminal Sciences, where Freitas was transferred, operates in facilities in Loures. This change places the coordinator outside the functions he previously performed.
The decision of the national direction of the PJ to transfer the coordinator comes in a context of internal tension in the institution, motivated by the complaint made by David Freitas regarding the alleged illegal wiretapping practices.
