During a random inspection by the GNR in Almancil, a 49 year old man was arrested for illegally staying in Almancil after being notified to leave the country voluntarily, on January 14th 2025.
Military police approached the citizen, who presented an expired passport. After inquiries with the Agency for Integration, Migration and Asylum (AIMA), it was found that the individual had been notified on January 14th this year 2025 to leave Portugal voluntarily, a deadline that was not met.
Given the failure to comply with the notification, the man's arrest was ordered by the Coastal and Border Control Unit (UCCF) of the National Republican Guard (GNR), through the Territorial Immigration Inspection Unit of Faro and the facts were referred to the Loulé Judicial Court, for the appropriate legal procedures.
This action is part of the mission of the GNR's UCCF, which aims to control the entry, stay and activities of foreign citizens, as well as ensuring surveillance of maritime and land borders. The GNR reaffirms its commitment to public order, legality and the safety of citizens.
