Othe spirits returned to exalt themselves in Rossio after the PSP fined cars that honked when they passed the concentration zone for the right to housing, called by the camp of Lisbon after the police load last morning.

 

A witness told journalists that PSP members began to fine drivers for considering that “horns during a demonstration were not admissible”.

“ I have been here for two hours and everything was perfectly peaceful and suddenly I looked back and there was the intervention police and things went out”he did.

On the scene was the lawyer Joana Marques Brás, who condemned the behavior of PSP.

“ If people have to pay 60 euro to show their protest in favor of this demonstration they will pay them. What's on the table here is to hire people who showed their protest with a horn. At this moment what the police achieved was for people to pass in this square and honk uninterruptedly ", he said.

Meanwhile, the Intervention Corps vans left Rossio's square and people kept shouting slogans and the cars honking.

On Instagram of the Lisbon camp it is told that the traffic police “stopped two cars that honked in solidarity with the camp,” telling drivers that “they were committing an infringement of the traffic law and will have to pay a fine of 60 euros”.
