Five employees of João Galamba’s office accused the former deputy of lying to the TAP commission of inquiry this Wednesday, saying two people were attacked on April 26 and that video surveillance would show Frederico Pinheiro’s “state of cholera”.
“Following information provided to the TAP Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry by Dr. Federico Pinheiro, the people mentioned by him in this context indicate that Dr. Federico Pinheiro lied in CPI-TAP about the April 26 incidents,” the report said. a statement sent to Lusa, signed by Lidia Enriquez, Catia Rosas, Rita Penela, Eugenia Cabasu and Paula Lagarto from the office of the Ministry of Infrastructure.
According to the same memo, when faced with Federico Pinheiro’s intent to take the ministry’s office computer “where he was forbidden to enter”, he was “asked not to do so and subsequently attacked two people who tried to stop him”. .
“CCTV footage of the building will certainly show the state of anger in which Frederico Pinheiro was at that time, even throwing his bicycle against the facade of the building,” the note says.
In addition, the targets indicate that photographs of one of the “injured advisors show the brutality of these acts of aggression” and that “the medical report from the emergency room visit that morning proves the acts of aggression.”
The statement mentions that the PSP was called to the scene by the building security and the women who witnessed the attacks, who reported the attacks and theft, and the competent authorities are investigating the facts, ensuring that the PSP was called that night “due to aggression, which Dr. Federico Pinheiro committed that night.”
