The former commander of the Madeira Military Zone (ZMM), who was exonerated last year for cannon shots in a golf tournament, literally opened the book on those events by pointing to the current deputy chief of staff of the Army, who claims to have “a lot of responsibility” in the events that took place during the golf tournament. “I was present as a player and had authorized the use of the howitzer 8×8, for volley shots ”, says Major General Carlos Perestrelo, in the book Fogo Cruzado – The Last Military Governor of Madeira, 2017-2019, presented last week in Funchal. The former commander of the ZMM recalls the email in which he received authorization from General Guerra Pereira for the use of the cannon in the golf tournament, a practice that was not “an abnormality” and that happened in the past both in Madeira and on the continent , and also recalls the telephone call between them that took place on December 5, 2019, almost two months after his exoneration, in which General Guerra Pereira promised to return the call, to exchange opinions on the happened.
