The reading of the court order for two former Marines accused of killing police officer Fabio Guerra, scheduled for May 5, was postponed this Thursday due to the death of a parent of a member of the court.
“Due to the death of one of the parents of an element that is part of the Court, who lived abroad and who requires intercontinental travel, it will not be possible to convene the Court for a deliberation session (…) and, therefore, it will not be possible to hold a hearing on May 5 ”, reads the information of the court, to which Lusa had access and which was provided by Expresso.
The decision of the panel of judges and jurors presided over by Magistrate Helena Susano does not currently have a new disclosure date.
In the final indictments made last week at Lisbon’s Central Criminal Court, the Ministry of Public Opinion (MP) asked for the conviction of former Marines Claudio Coimbra and Vadim Grinko for the skilled murder of PSP agent Fabio Guerra, stressing that the former would be punished with at least 20 years’ imprisonment. freedom and stressing that “the facts are very serious.”
PSP agent Fabio Guerra, 26, died on March 21, 2022 at the San José hospital in Lisbon due to “serious head injuries” sustained from attacks that targeted him outside the Mome nightclub in Alcantara when he stepped out out of service.
In September, the MP charged former Marines Claudio Coimbra and Vadim Grinko with aggravated murder, three offenses of qualified bodily harm and one felony of simple bodily harm in a case that ended in the death of Fabio Guerra.
