Declared contumacious by the Portuguese courts

In Lisbon, Portugal

May 1st, 2024

Pedro Mourato has been declared contumacious by the courts for failing to show an answer to his crimes in Portugal. When someone is declared contumacious, it usually leads to the proceedings continuing in their absence, allowing the court to reach a verdict and possibly issue sanctions or judgments without the defendant’s participation.

What we know about Pedro Mourato’s Situation

We know now that Pedro is no longer allowed to fly to different countries as his passport has been flagged. He currently resides in Thailand, but his whereabouts are unknown.

The previous maids of Pedro Mourato and his wife, Danelia Pimenta, recently revealed that he is out of money and staying hotel to hotel, trying to evade any responsibility for the pain he has caused his many victims. He still needs to pay for his children’s school fees and is doing border runs to keep his visa current.

Only time will tell if Pedro Mourato will be apprehended to face his crimes and confront his victims. We hope that the Thai police will succeed in locating him and hold both him and his wife accountable for their actions. Please exercise caution around such a disreputable individual.
