Francisco J. Marquez and the case of the emails: “The verdict was delivered by a shareholder of SAD do Benfica” – FC Porto

Porto’s communication director criticized the decision and the values ​​applied

Francisco J. Marquez returned to the charge in the case of emails from Benfica released on the Porto channel to criticize the ruling of a judge of the Court of Appeal of Porto, in September 2022, which convicted him, along with FC Porto Sad and FC. Porto Media, with a payment of one million euros. The Dragon Communication Director pointed his finger at the decision and the values ​​applied.

“Myself, FC Porto Sade and FC Porto Media were convicted in the first instance by a Benfica judge. Benfica, who always complained about the justice system in the north, was lucky to have a judge in Benfica. The decisions as a Benfica judge were him. There was Appeal and in the draw for the appeal who got out?In the draw it’s curious that Benfica was present, he was represented, fortunately the judge who’s been a member of Benfica since 1968, he came out 55 years old, he happens to be a shareholder of Benfica’s SAD, And no one thought the judge should be removed from the process, and in the meantime he was invited to visit Seixal. What would people think if a contributing judge were to the PT to decide proceedings in which Labor was a party? Does anyone think that was normal? Just so in a country He thinks that Benfica is above everything else, because I am quite sure that no person of common sense who thinks it is natural that the shareholder of the entity decides, is called a judge in his case”, q questioned Francisco J. Marquez, in Porto Canal, returning to the topic later to reinforce his reasoning .

“This has no head or tail to be decided by a shareholder of Benfica SAD, by a golden eagle, by an invitation from Benfica to visit Seixal, what is wrong is justice, that is, to be a judge in one’s own case, then these things who think there is no public interest.” …about Luciano Gonçalves there are doubts about the public interest?The APAF president asks Benfica for invitations and this is not considered abnormal?Isn’t there a public interest that people know about these things?Legalization by doing things through the back door, since it was known that there were payments from The back door, that is, by the Portuguese Football Federation for games at the Estádio da Luz This sentence is very questionable and has the original sin of being uttered by a shareholder of Benfica Bank “SAD”, said the Dragon’s communications director, referring to points of judgment that raised his indignation.

“The judge divided the emails into four groups. One of them, according to him, in which there is clearly no public interest, is the forgery of Luis Felipe Vieira’s interviews with” A Bola “, each of these emails was worth 40,000 euros in damages., Emails that may be of general interest, €20,000 each. Public interest emails, €10,000 each to be issued seems anecdotal, but they are anyway. In the first place were these values, and then they went in half. Then There are the exceptional emails, those Nhaga-related disclosures, remember? Because those disclosures were so harmful to Benfica, they were terrible, they were not entitled to a discount in the relationship. Given the disclosures only served to harass Benfica, according to the ruling, compensation of €340,000. To denounce this deception is in the public interest. Then there are the emails of the priests, because the sentences that were there did not contribute to the understanding of what was shown there and that. Now er investigation is underway, two extensions were not chosen. Eighty thousand euros for not reading one and 160 thousand euros And for no other reading, it was only 240,000 euros due to these two emails from the priests. Are these values ​​reasonable? They are not, they are the values ​​of Benfica,” warned Francisco J. Marquez, comparing the sums paid by the state, for example, for deaths in the 2018 fires: “It is much worse and it should be compensation, if there is any way to compensate, deaths from the mail Email, even if it is found, the court also found and we do not agree, so we appeal again, that death is much worse than revealing emails. This disproportion is what pisses us off.”

The Porto player responsible also revealed that the Porto club was penalized to pay for the repair of Benfica’s computer system, also stressing his dissatisfaction with the judge’s decision.

“Benfica’s computer system was attacked, but it wasn’t us, and everyone knows what happened. We had it, I even had it, because we were doomed to pay the money that Benfica spent repairing the computer system, and that included hiring 18 employees and the machines they had to buy,” Concluded Director of Communications at FC Porto.
