Court upholds remand in custody for mother accused of abandoning children in Alentejo
A Portuguese court decided to uphold remand in custody for a woman accused of abandoning her minor children in the Alentejo region. The decision was made on Tuesday.
The defendant, of foreign nationality, was detained in Portugal as part of proceedings related to the abandonment of children in that area of the country. The investigating judge considered that there is sufficient evidence to maintain the most serious coercive measure.
The case is being investigated by Portuguese authorities, who are evaluating the circumstances in which the minors were left alone and the period of time during which they are believed to have been abandoned.
