Luís Neves and the controversial facts involving him: a hearing where almost everything had already been said

Expresso8 September 2026 at 16:12

The Minister of Internal Administration, Luís Neves, spent more than four hours being questioned by deputies during a parliamentary hearing. The deputies focused on the controversial facts involving the relationship between the minister and a contractor from Barcelos.

Throughout the hearing, Luís Neves was barely able to add anything to what was already known about the facts related to the contractor, with whom the minister became friends. The session lasted several hours without major revelations.

During the hearing, Luís Neves took the opportunity to, once again, point responsibilities at the Judicial Police services for the flaws pointed out against him. This is not the first time the minister has shifted blame to the PJ.

The hearing took place in parliament and brought together several deputies interested in clarifying the facts that have been debated around the conduct of the Minister of Internal Administration.
