Housing protests: Majority of those detained on 20 October decide to go to trial

The majority of the 82 individuals detained during housing protests in Lisbon on 20 and 25 October have rejected a provisional suspension of their criminal cases, opting instead to face trial. The Public Prosecutor is currently weighing whether to proceed with the cases or archive them, following a recent Administrative Court ruling that upheld the protesters' right to demonstrate, including overnight, in Lisbon's Rossio square.
