Major-General Viegas Nunes, head of SIRESP SA, has responded to recent accusations, claiming they were deliberately timed to coincide with his recent re-election for a second term. He alleges the accusations emerged at a “surgically chosen moment,” suggesting a coordinated effort to undermine his position. Nunes did not detail the nature of the accusations, but framed them as a calculated move by opponents. The statement implies a politically motivated attack intended to damage his reputation during a vulnerable period. This response marks the beginning of a potential public dispute regarding the allegations and their timing. Further details regarding the accusations and the individuals allegedly involved remain undisclosed. The situation raises questions about internal dynamics within SIRESP SA, a company responsible for Portugal’s emergency communication system.
