Was there an illegal wiretap in the Football Leaks case that led to the identification of Rui Pinto, alleged to be the hacker behind the football leaks? Carlos Cabreiro, the current director of the Polícia Judiciária (PJ), denied—after swearing to tell the truth—that such a measure had taken place. However, documents released later call that version into question, leading the Public Prosecutor’s Office (MP) to open an investigation. There is also another element: one of the owners of the Doyen fund said that his Portuguese partner, Nélio Lucas, took a hidden microphone to a meeting with lawyer Aníbal Pinto.
Arif Efendi, who owned the Doyen fund together with his father, Arif Tevfik, made these statements in England in December 2018. The testimony was later sent to Romania, where both filed a lawsuit against a consortium of journalists over news reports related to the Football Leaks case. Read the full article in Sábado.
