Housing. Public Prosecutor's Office opens investigation into police intervention in Lisbon

The Public Prosecutor's Office has launched an investigation into police interventions during housing protests in Lisbon and Porto. This inquiry follows incidents on October 15, 20, 25, and November 1, where police used force to disperse demonstrators. Protesters claimed their constitutional right to assemble, while police cited a 1974 decree limiting protest hours. The Internal Administration Inspectorate is also conducting an administrative process to assess the police actions, which resulted in injuries. On November 1, 13 protesters were arrested, and several police officers were injured in Porto.
