Public prosecutors confirm probe into events at government ministry

Following on from yesterday’s revelations during a session of the parliamentary inquiry into management decisions at TAP, the office of public prosecutions has confirmed that it is investigating the ‘events at the Ministry of Infrastructure’ on the night of April 26 – the night when everyone involved claims to have been assaulted. A source from the attorney general’s office has said that it can provide no further details on the matter. Later today (from 5pm), it will be the turn for MPs on the commission to question infrastructures minister João Galamba over the many inconsistencies that have come to light.
