The possibility that the Government extinguishes the Foreign and Border Service (SEF) as a criminal police force, distributing its powers to other authorities, was denounced on Saturday night by TVI, which cited sources close to the Interior Ministry.

According to TVI, a new body could be created under the supervision of the General Secretariat for Internal Administration, which will be in charge of granting visas, granting residence permits and evaluating asylum applications, while PSP would remain with the mission. control borders at airports, leaving the Judicial Police the sole responsibility of investigating cases of human trafficking and criminal associations for the exploitation of illegal immigration.

A government source assured that restructuring was already being considered, which was eventually accelerated by the murder of the Ukrainian Ihor Homeniuk when he was detained at the SEF facilities at Lisbon airport.
