The Justice of Acre ordered the immediate clearance of Rua Bola Preta, in Rio Branco, which had been banned by residents in protest against the change of the POP Center – a unit that provides care to homeless people – to that region.
The injunction, issued by Judge Adimaura Cruz, of the 1st Public Treasury Court, complied with the request of the City of Rio Branco through an action to maintain possession with urgent relief. The municipality claimed that the blockade was preventing the provision of essential services and violating the right to come and go from citizens.

According to the action, the public road was closed with strings, sticks, tires and other objects, as well as fires in materials, making vehicle traffic difficult and pedestrian circulation. The judge pointed out that the protest exceeded the limits of the right to free manifestation, directly affecting the dignity of homeless people and the legality of the performance of the public power.

“The danger of damage is evident, since the maintenance of the blockade makes it impossible to provide an essential service, and negatively affect the displacement of the local population and the regular use of the public road,” said the magistrate in the decision.

The judge authorized the use of police force, if necessary, to ensure compliance with the court order and determined the withdrawal of all objects that are preventing traffic on Rua Bola Preta. The personal citation of the protesters eventually identified in the place was also determined, in addition to the summons by the others involved not yet identified.
It is worth remembering that the decision is provisional and anticipates the effects of the final judgment, considering the urgency of the situation. The merits of the action will still be analyzed by the judiciary.
