The National Director of the Judicial Police accuses the metadata law of having a “negative impact” on the administration of justice and causing “disappointment among victims and citizens.” “We feel that there is a general failure. There is a great disparity between the legal means that we must use to investigate and the technical, digital, computer and other means that criminal organizations use to commit crimes,” Luis Neves said during a radio debate.
To try to change this norm, the national director of the SP called on the leaders of the international colleagues to attend a conference in Lisbon this week. At least 25 countries and 30 leaders will be present, including the Director of Europol and the EU Commissioner for Home Affairs.
