PGR says that those who "did not bring in the money taken illegally in good time" can do so now in donation to the Government

Those who "did not bring the money unlawfully out of the country in time" can now do so by making donations to an account set up by the government to support the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic. The challenge was launched this Thursday by Helder Pitta Grós, Attorney General of the Republic (PGR).

Considering that the country faces a complex situation and that all help is welcome, the prosecutor said this is an opportunity for those who 'took' money from the country to return it: "Here you have an opportunity to return it through the donations that the Executive has created". This is also a "superb" occasion "to show their humanitarian spirit," he added.

Speaking to Radio Nacional, Helder Pitta Grós also said that the current scenario facing the country may have somewhat hindered the fight against corruption, but left the guarantee that the OPG continues to work in this direction.

As for the revelation made this week about the provisional release of defendants and defendants with prison sentences of up to two years, the OPG said that nothing has yet been decided: It is a situation. Nothing is concrete yet, we are in fact analysing whether or not we can. It is a measure that is being dealt with within the coordination bodies of justice, where we have already held some meetings".

So far, we have already analysed which prisoners meet the conditions to be released, he said, pointing out that the situation is being studied and "soon it will also be a measure to reduce overcrowding in prison establishments".
