Home Secretary sends formal request to Portugal

Scotland Yard has said neither the McCann family nor the friends who were staying with them were among those they have identified for further inquiries.

That's probably annoying the Amaral supporters.

No doubt things will move smoothly now - call me Dave probably put the final touches to it all in between buying squid last week; the rest is just a formality.

excellent news, well done, keep up the good work. Thank you Mrs. Theresa May.

Yes, it's very significant that it's been signed by the Home Secretary in person, Pedro - no danger of that getting lost in the post.

IMO, things may move fairly quickly, as I doubt Cameron was in the Algarve just for a holiday....

bb1, I agree with you:

"Yes, it's very significant that it's been signed by the Home Secretary in person, - no danger of that getting lost in the post."

Yes, my thoughts exactly:

"IMO, things may move fairly quickly, as I doubt Cameron was in the Algarve just for a holiday...."

for me, this is what really matters:

"Mrs May remained determined to offer every assistance to Madeleine’s parents Kate and Gerry as they seek to find their daughter.

A spokesman added: “The Home Office remains committed to supporting the search for Madeleine McCann, and we have always said we would provide the Metropolitan police with the resources they need to investigate her disappearance.”, together of course, with finding her, also to bring her safe and sound to her home.

Delivered by hand by David Cameron himself? The leads must be good.

Oh my!

Yes, Cameron may well be hand-delivering it to the President of Portugal - which is a political office in Portugal.

My friends, this was taken from Lux, here it is the translation:

Attorney General receives request for assistance because of Madeleine McCann.

The Attorney General's Office (PGR) received a request for assistance from the British authorities in the investigation opened in London the disappearance of British child Madeleine McCann, in 2007, in the Algarve.

In a statement sent today Lusa, the RMP states that received "a request for assistance from the British authorities," adding that "there is no prediction of when the steps will take place."

Also notes the PGR that "the British authorities can not perform acts in Portuguese territory, can only be allowed to attend their presence to assist the Portuguese authorities in the execution about that application."

It means that the British authorities can not carry out any examination or questioning unless accompanied by the Public Ministry (MP).

London's authorities have confirmed that there are Portuguese between the 38 persons of interest that British police want to question in the investigation that was opened in that country.

The British press had already advanced the hypothesis that the Scotland Yard opened its own investigation into the case, the review sequimento opened in 2011 by intervention of the Prime Minister, David Cameron.

At the time, police confirmed that a delegation of senior officials of the Crown Prosecution and British detectives visited Portugal in mid-April to discuss the next steps with the Portuguese authorities.

Parents, Kate and Gerry McCann and another British Robert Murat, were made defendants by the Portuguese authorities in July 2007, but the July 21, 2008, the MP ordered the filing of suspicion, which spelled the end investigations.

The MP Portuguese always admitted reopening if new data about the child's disappearance from a holiday village of Praia da Luz.

My, that was quick - I didn't expect Portugal to confirm it had been received as fast as that. Mind you, if it was in Cameron's pocket, that would speed things up.

In a statement sent today Lusa, the RMP states that received "a request for assistance from the British authorities," adding that "there is no prediction of when the steps will take place."

Also notes the PGR that "the British authorities can not perform acts in Portuguese territory, can only be allowed to attend their presence to assist the Portuguese authorities in the execution about that application."

I should think the decision has already been made that the Yard are going to be allowing pretty much free rein to clean this mess up with a token PJ officer or two along; that is, after all, in Portugal's best interests, which is rather more important than shrieks and howls from the Gonc cult.

bb1, I agree with you:

They can hardly say no. Imagine the outrage if they did.

Thank you, Pedro, event may happen rather quickly now, I suspect?

TREACLE ‏@TREACLEW12QPR
@JimGamble_INEQE Im referring 2 original investigation.Y did Gerry have CEOP book as bed time reading ? How ? Bit odd 4 searching #mccann

Jim Gamble ‏@JimGamble_INEQE
@TREACLEW12QPR The clue is in your answer, there is a new investigation. CEOP book was publicly available. Not secret, another myth.

Interesting exchange. And if the McCann haters have been told once there was nothing 'secret' about those books, they've been told a million times. Yet still they cannot grasp it, any more than they can grasp that this is a NEW investigation, and bears no resemblance to the Amoral shambles and attempted stitch-up.

you welcome bb1, the sooner the better.

EVERY SINGLE TIME the idiots pose that questiion they give the McCanns' legal team a further way of hammering home the libel case against Amaral.

They are too stupid to realise that the book 'A Verdade a Mentira' was written not to expound the intricacies of the case accurately but simply to rehabilitate him. To rehabilitate Amaral who was thrown off the case for being a bad cop.

It was his propaganda book that has meant that these fools have clung to this particular theme. Everybody who has done any personal research knows that those books were not as Amaral claimed, "exclusively intended for police services and government agencies". It is a great shame that in this case and others it seems that Amaral himself did not do sufficient research into the matter.

When they begin to understand the basis on which Amaral wrote his book, the inaccuracies and downright lies present in his book and the reasons for the McCann pursuing this man for the effect that his lies have had on the search, maybe they will see that their own foolish questions are actually proof of the libel which Amaral has perpetrated and which the McCanns are suing over.

This is just one of the downright lies in his book. There are others.

With amazement the police officers discover a series of books and manuals exclusively intended for police services and government agencies.

His literary effort is one long lie, Greenink, but it's pointless trying to get his fan club to grasp that. I really do not know what is wrong with them. Give them a choice between far-fetched lies and simple truth, and they'll choose the lies every time.

Must dash, I'm busy compiling an email to Mrs May. By the way, no reply as yet from Scotland Yard, but I'm still living in hope.


Deluded obsessive.   

kathybelle,  you are insane or illiterate if you think that Mrs. Theresa May or Scotland Yard will reply to you, the answer is no. you kathybelle did not understood these words:

"Scotland Yard has said neither the McCann family nor the friends who were staying with them were among those they have identified for further inquiries.

The Home Office declined to comment on the letter, but confirmed that Mrs May remained determined to offer every assistance to Madeleine’s parents Kate and Gerry as they seek to find their daughter.

A spokesman added: “The Home Office remains committed to supporting the search for Madeleine McCann, and we have always said we would provide the Metropolitan police with the resources they need to investigate her disappearance.”

That hateblogger pretendy 'Dr Roberts' did another of his yawn-inducing rants. Same old same old, and a great cure for insomnia, but hilariously, he appears to have written it, with the usual impeccable hater timing, just before news broke about Mrs May's signing the document.

The waffle ends:

So, before the government, as represented by Theresa May, commits irrevocably to the voyage, she/they would be well advised to count the lifeboats.

      

By 'committing irrevocably' does he mean signing the letter so Dave can pass it to the President of Portugal before they go for a holiday dip as they're on the Algarve?

All these pages full of dog stuff are just a waste of time!

Sending the dogs in 3 months after the abduction, was a waste of time and money. What was the point? when god knows how many PJ, GNR, Dogs, and four family's had been in the apartment.

They found nothing of any use.

Final Report) but also, some of them at the reputed National Institute of Forensics Medicine (check Appendix I), whose final results did not corroborate the canine markings, which is to say, cellular material was collected that was not identified as pertaining to anyone specific, and it was not even possible to determine the quality of that material (v.g. whether it could be blood or another type of bodily fluid).

All these pages full of dog stuff are just a waste of time!



As Scotland Yard is well aware....

kathybelle Today at 20:54

I wrote to Theresa May this morning,..........obsessive forker rant follows and then we have this treat to look forward to.....

I've put on the forum, the contents of the email I sent Mrs May this morning. I'm just about to put on the forum, the gist of another email I have sent Mrs May, an hour ago

Which will doubtless go the same way as the first one. Into the file marked NUTTER, where all the 'dossiers', fillums and rants from these obsessed space cadets go.
