Repórter Sábado infiltrates Mouraria: Desperate population forced to face drug dealers and users

Now13 September 2026 at 14:10

The Repórter Sábado investigation team infiltrated the Mouraria neighborhood to document the situation of degradation and drug trafficking in the area. The investigation shows that the local population is desperate and forced to face drug dealers and users daily.

Signs of degradation multiply in various points of the city, revealing the ineffectiveness of police action and local authorities in stemming the problem. The neighborhood has a "drug supermarket," where trafficking occurs openly.

The situation in Mouraria is presented as an example of the authorities' inability to control the drug problem in the city. The Repórter Sábado investigation premieres at 9:40 PM on the NOW channel.

Why this matters

Readers in Lisbon directly face the effects of this insecurity and degradation in their daily lives. The article shows that authorities cannot stop drug trafficking in one of the city's most emblematic neighborhoods, raising questions about the effectiveness of local security policies. This investigation follows a pattern of reports exposing State failure in problematic areas of the Portuguese capital.
