Good morning! The preliminary report on the accident involving the Elevador da Glória takes center stage in today’s newspapers on Tuesday, October 21. Headlines also reveal new details about the case of the baby abandoned near the Leiria fire station.
“Damning Report. Elevator was Unfit for Operation” graces the front page of Correio da Manhã, while Diário de Notícias states: “Preliminary Report Points to Fake Maintenance and Inspection Tasks on the Elevador da Glória”.
As a year passes since the death of Odair Moniz and the trial is about to commence, further details are yet to be uncovered. Público reports videos show a knife appearing 27 minutes after the fatal shot.
In other news, Jornal de Notícias reveals “dozens of mayors and managers” were “convicted of defrauding the state of millions of euros” and notes that “a mother gave birth alone and left her baby at the fire station doors in Leiria”.
The Jornal Económico hits the stands today with a special OE2026 edition, while sports papers focus on the upcoming Newcastle-Benfica match.
