"Disproportionate" violence, denounces Lisbon Camp. See images of the clashes
The Acampada de Lisboa movement accuses the Public Security Police (PSP) of using "disproportionate" violence during protests at Rossio. They claim that police actions included detaining sleeping individuals and causing injuries that required hospitalization. The movement argues that the police aimed not only to remove tents but also to instill fear among protesters. In contrast, a police union representative stated that the PSP has shown tolerance and that some protesters were aggressive. The PSP defended its actions as necessary to restore legality after protesters ignored orders. The Acampada de Lisboa plans to hold another assembly to discuss future actions, while the Casa para Viver platform criticized the police's tactics and announced a protest against the repression of housing rights.
