According to an announcement published this Thursday in Diário da República, the state will provide compensation of 51,000 euros to a GNR soldier 16 years after suffering serious injuries in the service that led to permanent partial disability.
The dispatch, signed by the Prime Minister and the Ministers of the Interior and Finance, provides compensation to the victim of a criminal act, a soldier of the National Republican Guard, João Manuel Ribeiro Pereira, who on December 24, 2007, during the intervention of a police officer, was “brutally attacked by several persons who inflicted multiple bodily injuries, having received partial permanent disability as a result of grievous bodily injuries.
The attacks took place in response to a complaint about excessive noise in a residential building, and the military on patrol went to the scene to stop the violation.
The dispatch states that these criminal acts were the result of “an act of intimidation and retaliation carried out by the aggressors against the NPR soldier after performing the functions of this soldier”, proving the damage done to João Manuel Ribeiro Pereira, “the nature of the intimidation and retribution for the behavior of the aggressors and the causal relationship between the constituent facts of the commission of the crime and the functions performed by this serviceman.
