Block questions MAI: how to identify police suspected of using excessive force during the camps?

The Bloco de Esquerda questions the Ministry of Internal Administration regarding the identification of police officers involved in alleged abuses during protests. Despite a recommendation from the Inspectorate-General of Internal Administration for police units to display identification, special police units continue to operate without visible ID. The government acknowledges the need for clear identification but states implementation is ongoing. The deputy Fabian Figueiredo raises concerns about the potential for complaints against unidentified officers to be dismissed. He requests details on police operations and the legal basis for non-compliance with identification regulations. The Bloco also highlights international obligations for police identification during protests and questions the government's claims about coded identifiers for officers.
