PSP detains three illegal immigrants in operation with AIMA
During a 'Portugal Always Secure' operation on Wednesday, September 24, in Lisbon, the PSP checked 150 people. The operation, supported by AIMA and the Tax Authority, resulted in three detentions for irregular status, two notices for irregular status (with minors involved), one arrest for illegal possession of a weapon, one arrest under an outstanding warrant, and 17 various administrative and tax infractions.
Why it mattersIf you are a foreign resident, this indicates ongoing, coordinated inspections by PSP and AIMA in high-traffic Lisbon areas like Mouraria, Martim Moniz, Penha de França, and Avenidas Novas.
