Rui Tavares rejects Ventura's accusations about office break-in and admits to legal process

dnoticias.pt12 September 2026 at 21:39

Rui Tavares, Deputy for Livre, today rejected the insinuations by the leader of Chega, André Ventura, who suggested that Livre may have been involved in the break-in at Ventura's office in parliament. The incident occurred during the party's "rentrée," when Tavares responded to the accusations.

Rui Tavares considered that the situation was exceeding all limits and warned that, if they try to drag Livre into this type of controversy, the party will not hesitate to go to court. "If they try to drag Livre into this kind of mud, then we will have to go to court if necessary," he stated.

The Deputy stressed that Livre is not "draggable into dishonesty" and that the party does not engage in attention-seeking games. This was Tavares's official position during the party's "rentrée" session, where he directly responded to the allegations made by André Ventura.
