Amaral, who was taken off the case after criticising some lines of inquiry by UK detectives, said in an interview with nine.com.au: "[Operation Grange detectives] are preparing the end of the investigation, with a German paedophile who is in prison right now."
"He is probably going to be the scapegoat for the case."
