Constitutional Court rejects appeal and upholds invalidity of PAN national organs election

CNN Portugal11 September 2026 at 16:17

The Constitutional Court rejected an appeal presented by PAN and upheld the invalidity of the election of the party's national organs. The institution's plenary confirmed the ruling that had annulled the result of the last internal electoral process.

The decision is related to irregularities detected in the voting process for the election of the party's national organs. The court considered that the legal and statutory requirements necessary for the validity of the election were not met.

PAN had appealed the initial decision that declared the invalidity of the electoral act. However, the Constitutional Court rejected the arguments presented by the party and maintained its previous position.

With this decision, the election of PAN's national organs remains invalidated, which may have implications for the functioning and legality of the party's directive structure.

The Supreme Administrative Court annulled the PSP's decision to expel a cadet who published images of an LGBT flag on fire and messages from Group 1143. The court considered that the publication of the images occurred before the young man joined the officers' course, which was decisive for the expulsion being revoked. The ruling, written by the reporting judge, cites Marcelo Caetano, the last President of the Council of Ministers of the Estado Novo regime, as the basis for the decision.
