Inês Sousa Real considers acquittal of suspects of animal abuse in Santo Tirso unfair

SAPO Notícias10 September 2026 at 09:56

The spokesperson for Pessoas Animais Natureza (PAN), Inês Sousa Real, considered today that the acquittal of five defendants suspected of animal abuse in Santo Tirso is a "deep injustice and outrage". The acquittal happened in court and the crimes allegedly occurred in July 2020.

Inês Sousa Real expressed respect for the courts, but stated that the party considers this decision deeply unfair. PAN has historically been a party defender of animal rights in Portugal.

The five defendants were suspected of animal abuse, although the article does not specify details about the type of animals affected or the specific circumstances of the alleged crimes.

This position by PAN comes in the context of a broader debate on animal protection and the enforcement of the law in cases of abuse in Portugal, a topic that has received increasing attention in Portuguese society.

PF operation regarding financing of the film 'Dark Horse' has 49 search and seizure warrants

The Federal Police launched an operation to investigate the financing of the film "Dark Horse," a production inspired by the life of former President Jair Bolsonaro, executing 49 search and seizure warrants in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Ceará, and the Federal District. The action, carried out together with the Comptroller General's Office, investigates suspected embezzlement of public funds from parliamentary amendments by an alleged criminal organization formed by public and private agents. The investigations indicate irregular direction of funds to subcontracted companies without proof of services rendered, with attempts to conceal the embezzlement until July of this year. Among the main targets are producer Karina Gama and federal deputy Mario Frias (PL-SP), with the investigation under the responsibility of Minister Flávio Dino.
