A court ordered that the trial of police officers linked to the case known as "Rato" proceed behind closed doors, preventing the presence of the public and the media.
According to a statement issued about the decision, the court weighed the right to information against the rights to privacy and dignity of the people involved in the process.
The decision to hold the trial behind closed doors was made considering that the privacy rights of those involved should prevail over the transparency of the process in this specific case.
