Public prosecutors are appealing the sentence handed down to former engineering student João Carreira, insisting he should be convicted of ‘training for terrorism’. João, 19, is serving the remainder of a two year nine month sentence in a psychiatric unit. But prosecutors are not satisfied that he was ‘absolved of terrorism’ altogether. According to SIC, they are seeking a longer jail term (no less than three and a half years), to be served in a jail for the unimputable.
