The former Secretary for Transport and Public Works, who is in prison because of corruption and money-laundering while in office, decided not to appeal against his 27-year jail sentence and confiscation of all bribes he received.
Defending lawyer, Nuno Simões, said that he had met Ao Man Long for about an hour in the Coloane prison.
Ao told him that he realised that the verdict made by the Court of Final Appeal cannot be appealed against, so he decided not to propose appeals against the Court’s verdict.
The two did not talk about whether a 27-year prison sentence is reasonable or not, claimed Simões.
He also indicated that he has not yet received any cases that he has to follow in connection with further investigation on his client.
