Maddie Case: Suspicious GNR to receive 120,000 euros


It was one of the first officers to arrive in Praia da Luz. PJ is already investigating delivery of money "alive"

By: Writing / Nuno Almeida Ramos    | June 19, 2009 at 20:33

One of the soldiers of the National Guard who first came running to the village of Praia da Luz and the couple holiday apartment mccan is suspected of having received more than 120,000 euros in cash "alive", shortly after the disappearance of Maddie. GNR this element is essential to all research, as it was the first on the scene where the girl disappeared and also one of the first contact with parents. TVI found that the case of sudden 120 000 euros in the hands of GNR is being investigated by the Judicial Police (PJ).

The night Maddie McCann disappeared, the first authorities on the scene were the military of the GNR. It was up to them to search the apartment, make initial searches, talk to the McCanns and drive hit the beach and the village, including the areas open to the works of sewage and plumbing, a few dozen meters from the urbanization that the British family had rented for the holidays.

Gery suspect Ride

According to statements made ​​in the process, the military GNR to have witnessed a ride after hours, Gerard McCann, from the Praia da Luz church. All key moments to realize what has happened to the missing child.

TVI know that one of the first military to take account of the occurrence is being targeted by a fact-finding process. At stake are more than 120 thousand euros received in cash in two accounts opened in your name, one of which in CGD. The most serious coincidence is that this money has to be deposited in these accounts, shortly after the disappearance of little Madeleine McCann.

This amount is much higher than the salary of a military GNR and was deposited in cash "alive", according to research sources in tranches over 10 thousand euros.

Military denies deposits

The investigation of these deposits is suspected in hand DCICCEF (Central Directorate for Investigation of Corruption and Economic and Financial Crime), trying to understand the reasons for these payments. Even if the illegality is proven, the link to the Maddie case can not exist, despite the strong coincidence and the high amount of money.

Contacted by TVI, the military in question denied the existence of such deposits, and raised the possibility your name be misused in opening such accounts. Area police sources expressed strangeness about the possibility of this military which consider honest, being involved in unlawful activities.

Ah yes! That's the 120,000 euros that Morais wouldn't let her members discuss. She just stated, It was an inheritance and that's that, end of.

Can you imagine what the haters would have to say if one of the Yard team suddenly became considerably richer?

I do hope all that money didn't come from the Algarve Tourist Board. Or the Algarve Film Commission. Or Portimao Urbis.

Bumping in light of new charges laid against Cristovao.

I remember it was our Tony who first brought it to this forum's attention.  

Appreciations, Tony.  

My friends, this was taken from Correio da Manhã newspaper:

"How does a guy think you're doing one of these things and get away with?" asked Paulo Pereira Cristóvão, considering Rui Martins, a witness in the case, as "a staunch supporter who had access to the corridors of Alvalade."

According to the indictment, Rui Martins, who worked in a company of Paulo Pereira Cristóvão and was responsible for the surveillance of the Sporting players, went to Funchal to make a deposit of two thousand euros at Cardinal´s account at the behest of then Vice President 'unfair' to later accuse him of having been bribed before a game between Sporting and Maritimo.

Christopher denies involvement

One day after the round-Rui Martins Madeira, was received at the José Alvalade in Lisbon, one anonymous letter denouncing a bribe to the referee José Cardinal, later the club referred to the Portuguese Football Federation and the PJ.

"After realizing, by the code of the voucher, the deposit was made in Madeira, realized what he [Rui Martins] had gone there to do," he said, adding, "I called him and told him that he knew what he had done ".

Paulo Pereira Cristóvão said to have taken the decision not to report Rui Martins Peter Fonseca, the inspector of the PJ that was the case and that both knew, but said today regrets: "I was wrong to not report today would not have done ".

According to the indictment, the former vice president 'Leo' will be lifted one day before Rui Martins to Funchal trip, a sum of 3,000 euros in cash from the club, which was classified as private spending and will have served to the deposit and expenses related to travel.

Pay 12 security guards
In court, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão assured that the money subsequently justified in part with invoices, served to pay the 12 security guards who had accompanied elements of the direction of Sporting to a trip to the Stadium of Light (Benfica´s stadium).

The main accused of 'If Cardinal' has ensured that from that day never spoke to Rui Martins, although it continues to make work for your family members.

At a time when allegedly no longer had contact, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão continued to use the bank account of Rui Martins company, which was created just before the Sporting have hired for monitoring their footballers services.

Rui Martins, who in previous sessions admitted he always acted at the behest of Paulo Pereira Cristóvão, continued to work in the surveillance club players.

"It was worse remove him [Sporting]," said Paulo Pereira Cristóvão, admitting have not talked to anyone considering the fact that Rui Martins had been the author of the deposit on assistant referee account.

Over the several hours that gave evidence, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão admitted the existence of a list with names and data of referees allowing obtaining information to offer "a sweater with name and age of the referees who ran games in Alvalade."

"The referees were well looked after. We had to regain prestige, we had lost in the treatment of referees and be educated," he said.

Players Monitoring
Regarding the lists with names and addresses of players and family, the former vice president of direction led by Godinho Lopes assured never have had in their possession.

In the morning, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão admitted that the club had a contract for monitoring players because "cases such as Jardel or Cherbakov could not happen again."

"What we tried to do, with many errors, was to recover 20 years of delay we had with respect to Benfica and FC Porto 30," he said, adding that "one way or another, all professional clubs have vigilance."

The former vice president of the Sporting Paulo Pereira Cristóvão said Wednesday in court that the deposit on the auxiliary referee account José Cardinal was a "deranged act" of Rui Martins, once his former employee, who called it "a smart ass" .


I don't believe a word of Cristovao's testimony, he must think everyone is stupid.

Similar mindset to his friend, Amoral?

At a time when allegedly no longer had contact, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão continued to use the bank account of Rui Martins company, which was created just before the Sporting have hired for monitoring their footballers services.

That's so dumb, it's actually quite funny.

He's going down. But will it be suspended? The sentence I mean. I don't think they will actually hang him.

I don't see him getting out of jail for a very long time, Sabot. Remember, this is just the first load of criminal charges relating to Sporting Lisbon, he still has all those charges of masterminding home invasions to come.

And anyway, this is about FOOTBALL. You've only got to see the blaring headlines about FIFA to see that FOOTBALL is more important than anything else to much of the population.

Scrub that, he's managed to worm his way out of jail:

The former PJ inspector and former vice president of Sporting Paulo Pereira Cristovao saw changed the remand of coercion measure for standby duty at the residence with electronic bracelet, he told Lusa your lawyer, and already at home.

Alves flour stated that the change of coercive measure was decided by the judge on Tuesday.

Paulo Pereira Cristovao was arrested in March on suspicion of criminal association, kidnapping and theft, according to police sources. The arrest occurred in the context of an investigation that, in July 2014, had already resulted in the arrest of 12 people, including three policemen, for kidnapping, theft and usurpation of functions.

The group was dismantled by members of the National Unity Against Terrorism (UNCT) PJ, for conspiracy evidence, kidnapping, aggravated robbery, usurpation of functions, abuse of power and possession of prohibited weapons

Crimes in Lisbon and Setúbal According to PJ, the criminal group was dedicated "to signal potential targets for stealing inside their homes, pretending treat yourself to true police actions to fulfill court ordered house searches, and some of them used, sometimes, their own uniforms credibilizarem order to better the performances. "

Perhaps they were having trouble protecting him inside.

Who knows, Sabot - it's Portugal. Astounding that he should be allowed out, given the seriousness of the charges he is facing - an electronic bracelet isn't going to stop him making phone calls to his chums, etc.

He must be thrilled.

another proof that in Portugal corruption is allowed.

They surely won't let him contact anyone? Unless they want him to, of course.

According to the over-emotional Hounder churnalist, Donn, Cristovao has been allowed out because he confessed he was indeed behind the violent home invasions:

http://portugalresident.com/flamboyant-former-sporting-fc-vice-president-admits-to-being-criminal-mastermind

According to news reports this morning, it was Pereira Cristóvão’s admission to being the brains behind at least two of the robberies which led super-judge Carlos Alexandre to deciding to let him leave the country’s now infamous Évora jail on an electronic bracelet.

I have NO idea whether that is true or not, I will look at the Portuguese tabloids in a while. It's impossible to trust a word Donn says, as she is incapable of touching a keyboard and writing a straight news story without embellishing it, and splattering it with her own choice of adjectives.
