A 20-year-old man who assaulted actor Adérito Lopes in front of Teatro A Barraca in Lisbon last Tuesday has been regularly participating in online conversations with skinhead groups. This information was confirmed to Expresso by sources close to the investigation.
Despite denying any ideological motivation or connections to neo-Nazi or far-right groups in two interviews, the attacker, who has no criminal record, is known to maintain online conversations with members of these extremist groups. The incident has raised concerns about the influence of such groups and their activities in Portugal.
The case has sparked a broader discussion on the presence and impact of extremist ideologies in the country, with authorities and civil society calling for increased vigilance and measures to counteract these movements.
