This request follows up on a previous one, dated October 16th, regarding a police intervention in Porto on October 15th, for which the response deadline is still pending. The PSP has 10 working days to respond to both requests, as per the Ombudsman's Statute.
Upon receiving the information, the Ombudsman will assess the compatibility of the police interventions with the right to assembly and demonstration, enshrined in the Constitution. The Ombudsman reiterated the State's duty, including security forces, to guarantee the free exercise of this right under Decree-Law No. 406/74.
