Lisbon Chamber considers Fidelidade's statements "shameful"

The President of Lisbon's Municipal Chamber criticized Fidelidade's statements regarding the elevator accident compensation process, calling them shameful. He expressed discomfort over the insurer's claims that the rapid nature of the accident meant victims did not suffer. Other council members echoed concerns about the lack of empathy and the implication that the municipality was aware of safety issues. Moedas accused the Socialist Party of politicizing the tragedy, while the vice-president urged the insurer to act diligently. Fidelidade denied refusing compensation and expressed regret over any distress caused by their statements. The council also extended condolences for a recent train accident in Spain.
