🚨 Rui Pinto, the Football Leaks whistleblower whose leaked documents helped spark the Premier League’s investigation into Man City, has lost his protected witness status in Portugal. The 37-year-old had been under protection since 2020, but Portuguese police have now assessed the threat to his safety as low — despite Pinto being assaulted in Lisbon in April. He has been advised to remain cautious with family contact and avoid using social media. (Source: The Guardian)
