The president of the entity for transparency considered this Tuesday inverts that former secretary of state Hernani Dias contacted the body before creating a real estate and said that an employee complained of being pressured by the ruler.
In an audition to the local parliamentary committee, required by the arrival, Ana Raquel Moniz considered “Highly unlikely“The version of Hernani Dias, according to which he will have received the endorsement, by telephone contact, from the (ETP) To create two real estate companies.
Ana Raquel Moniz stressed that Hernâni Dias constituted the first real estate company on October 28, 2024 and the superior technique of the ETP in charge of verifying the single statement of former Secretary of State was only awarded on November 11.
“It means that, until that moment, the holder does not know what the superior technique that will do the checks. Therefore, before October 28, it was impossible, it was highly unlikely that the former secretary of state could know who was the superior technique that would check to ask him whether or not to constitute societies,” he said.
“It is impossible to prove what did not happen”
After being criticized by PSD deputies Carlos Silva and CDS-PP João Almeida for not being strict or being able to use words such as “highly unlikely” in cases of this importance, Ana Raquel Moniz argued that “it is impossible to prove what has not happened” and “who has to prove is who happened”, in an allusion to Hernani Dias.
“What I have sought to demonstrate is that it is inverse that a holder’s contact with a person in which he could not know that he was overseeing his unique statement that was unique,” he said.
About whether or not there were telephone contacts between Hernani Dias and ETP, Ana Raquel Moniz confirmed that they existed, but “What is not confirmed is the content of the information” which are invoked by the former Secretary of State, namely the endorsement to constitute the real estate companies, reiterating that ETP never issued any opinion on this case.
Asked by the deputies about whether a call with ETP technicians may be binding, Ana Raquel Moniz replied that “telephone information does not bind” e “Written information, according to the Code of Administrative Procedure, is not binding either, but are likely to incur the entity in civil liability.”.
“But there is a matter of principle of good faith,” he said.
Anticipating that, in the hearing that is currently being held in Parliament, Hernani Dias could indicate that the superior technique that analyzed his single statement was replaced, seeking “establish a cause and effect relationship” With the fact that she had previously claimed that she had endorsed her to constitute the real estate, Ana Raquel Moniz stressed that she was herself, together with vowel Pedro Nunes, who opted for replacement.
“I was pressured”
At issue, he said, is the fact that the superior technique in question revealed that “I was pressured” by Hernani Dias and who had even failed to answer the calls.
“I thought that not meeting a holder is not the most appropriate to comply with the principle of collaboration and, therefore, there was no conditions for a continuation of the process analysis by this worker and the process was attributed to another worker,” he said.
After this intervention, PS deputy André Rijo expressed concern about the fact that “The performance of a member of the Government of the Republic has provided a feeling of pressure” To an ETP employee, asking Ana Raquel Moniz if this pressure was in order to seek that the technique altered her understanding regarding the statement.
In the answer, the president of the ETP denied that this was the objective, noting that the employee considered himself only “pressured by the set of contact attempts”these.
