So then one questions the inquiry into the investigation from day 1-obviously the portuguese police have no idea and seems they have been clutching at straws, trying to make themselves look competent when infact they look totally incompetent- The worlds press was on them and they didn't want to look as if they didn't have a clue- Shame they couldn't have let the British detectives and their more advanced equipment into the apartment from the beginning this might have been solved a lot quicker. catherine xx |

This is in the Portuguese Press today http://dn.sapo.pt/2007/08/07/s.....morta.html Roughly translating: According to Diário de Notícias (a respected newspaper), the Portuguese police have known for a month that Madeleine was killed on the 3rd of May, having definitely ruled out the abduction theory. The suspicions on the McCann couple have gained new strength. The revelation was made yesterday to this newspaper by a source related to the juridical process, and the source emphasizes the fact that the Portuguese and English police have been paying attention to the McCann's movements from the beginning, wherever they went on their campaign. A new piece of evidence made the police sure that Madeleine has died, and that same piece of evidence set off the searches made by PJ two weeks ago at PDL. Right after that, the british policemen came to Portugal to support the investigation with the special dogs. The PJ, who has claimed since the very beginning of the case that the key to the case is at PDL, investigated new clues and discretely interviewed Algarvian residents, cross-referencing information, especially near the Ocean Club. They ended up requesting the support of the british police to return to the apartment where Madeleine dissapeared from. On the other hand, according to the information the newspaper received, Kate McCann was shouting 'They' taken her!' when she went back to the restaurant where they were having dinner after realizing that the girl was gone. Moments after that, a tourist who was staying in an apartment near the McCann's heard Kate saying 'We failed!' in a self-criticizing manner. In the questionings that were done to M's parents, family and friends of the couple which were done in the next few days, there were several contradictory versions of the story. This contributed to accumulated doubt about the abduction theory which had already been put forth by the investigators. The investigators are still concentrating their attention on the 'circle of family and friends' of the McCanns, a police source told the newspaper. According to the same source, there are friends of the couple who were on vacation at PDL who are under police surveillance in England and who are going to be called to Portugal for new questioning sessions at PJ. New suspect In the meantime, the PJ revealed a new suspect yesterday. According to the available data, it's a man in his 40s, about 1.70-1.75 meters tall, with very tanned skin. According to the newspaper, he's probably half african half english. The description matches the first drawing which was done in the beginning of the investigation, which was made from declarations of residents who claimed to have seen a man on the 3rd of May who was taking an apparently sleeping child, and who avoided getting near the people who were walking nearby. This happened near the resort where the McCanns were on vacation. The possibility now being put forth is that it was this same man who was seen with Murat right after Maddie dissapeared, together with the journalists near the apartment. But according to witnesses, the man was also seen before Maddie dissapeared, near the McCann family. Right after Maddie dissapared, he was again seen and photographed near the journalists. The police is reportedly watching this man, who keeps an eye on all his movements, making records. Murat wants to be compensated Murat's lawyer admitted yesterday the possibility of asking for compensation from the portuguese state, stating however that the priority now is to get his client out of the 'arguido' status. |
