Eight people, three of them army soldiers serving in various units in Greater Lisbon, were arrested yesterday by the PSP’s criminal investigation department as part of an investigation by the Santarém prosecutor’s office into a scheme involving fake 12th grade qualification certificates. According to a police source, the holders of these fake certificates could contact, for example, PSP and GNR, which is what happened. One of the detained civilians may be the author of the forgeries issued at the Lisbon vocational school. “As far as the army knows, the facts considered in the criminal trial have nothing to do with the functions performed by the military,” he assured.
