MADDIE 'LIE' BATTLE  Madeleine McCann’s parents Kate and Gerry make final appeal in battle against shameless ex-police chief

The McCanns have been fighting a lengthy legal battle against Goncarlo Amaral after he wrote a book suggesting they were responsible for the 2007 abduction and 'death' of their daughter.

MADDIE McCann’s parents have made a last ditch appeal to the European Court of Human Rights after a Portuguese judge ruled against them in their battle against a shameless ex police chief.

Kate and Gerry McCann, both 49, have been fighting a lengthy legal battle against Goncarlo Amaral after he wrote a book suggesting they were responsible for the abduction and ‘’death’’ of their daughter in 2007.

 Madeleine McCann's parents have been fighting a legal battle against an ex-cop who claimed they were responsible for her daughter's abduction

The case has been in and out of court in Portugal with Amaral initially being ordered to pay £360,000 damaged in 2015 for the outrageous slurs in ‘The Truth of the Lie’.

But his legal team overturned that order and Kate and Gerry took out their own appeal against him in Portugal’s Supreme Court and earlier this year they were left devastated after judges again ruled in his favour.

In their 76 page ruling judges said Kate and Gerry had not ‘’successfully proved their innocence’’ - which left the couple from Rothley, Leicestershire ‘shattered’, according to a source close to the couple.

Initially they had considered dropping the whole case against Amaral they are more determined than ever that he should not get away with his vile allegations against them.

So far no money has been paid by either party and now they will square up to each other at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.

The appeal was lodged in July by their Portuguese lawyer Isabel Duarte and they are now waiting for a date to be confirmed.

 Gerry and Kate McCann have made a last ditch appeal to the European Court of Human Rights after a Portuguese judge ruled against them.

A source close to the couple said: "They discussed the situation with their legal team and they decided that ultimately it was worth fighting the decision of the Portuguese court.

"They are upset that the court made this ruling but are also desperately upset at Amaral’s claims which are ludicrous and hurtful.’’

Last night the European Court of Human Rights confirmed an appeal had been lodged and officials were investigating its "admissibility’’ before deciding what to do next.

Family spokesman Clarence Mitchell told The Sun: "I can confirm that Kate and Gerry have lodged an appeal application at the European Court of Human Rights and the application is being considered.

As we know, the case against Amaral is over.

I predicted they wouldn't pay up, as have others.

They cannot take Amaral to the E.C.H.R., it is the state of Portugal.

This has now become totally ridiculous, I.M.H.O. of course.

The Sun, surprise, surprise, has LIED in it's headlines, saying ........

' they were responsible for the 2007 abduction and 'death' of their daughter '

I think what is more interesting is the timing of the announcement. If this was submitted in July, why wait until now to announce it? Obviously an ongoing court case wouldn't hurt the SY appeal for more funding.

You took the quote out of context. "The McCanns have been fighting a lengthy legal battle against Goncarlo Amaral after he wrote a book suggesting they were responsible for the 2007 abduction and 'death' of their daughter."

Good point Slarti.

Also, it just seems a month or so ago,  I believe it was reported that the McCann's weren't going to the E.C.H.R.

Here we are..........

From the Sun itself.



“Realistically a European Court appeal was never going to succeed plus it would be too expensive to launch. It seems Mr Amaral, regrettably, has won once and for all. The fight is finally over."

Of course it makes no difference to the ruling of the Supreme Court or their debt which they seemingly haven't paid.

The Court does not act as a court of appeal in relation to national courts; it does not rehear cases, it cannot quash, vary or revise their decisions.

The newspaper could have made an effort to get Amaral's name right; Goncarlo Amaral.

There are two major types of innuendo. The first is false innuendo. It is a defamatory statement made that has an implied meaning, so only individuals who have the necessary contextual knowledge can appreciate and understand that the comment is defamatory. This may require some sort of cultural, geographic information.
There is also legal innuendo. While this is not defamatory on its face, a legal innuendo statement can be defamatory when combined with certain extrinsic or outside circumstances. This contextual information may cause a statement to be considered defamatory in a certain jurisdiction while not another.
When looking at legal precedent, strict liability rule is applied to legal innuendo. This is the standard level of liability that specifies what makes an individually legally responsible. Strict liability requires imposing liability on a particular party without finding a reason for the fault, such as tortious intent or negligence. In this situation, the defendant must have been proved to be responsible and that the torn in question did happen.

It will be interesting to see how it all turns out in the European Court.

I particularly await with interest what I believe to have been the abrogation of the McCann human rights as outlined by the Portuguese appeal court judges.
I never thought they were entitled to say what they said in their conclusions to a civil case.

There you have it Stephen.
I don't think he had to say it.  I think he only had to imply it ... and goodness gracious me hasn't he worked overtime at that one ... much more so than Sally Bercow's one tweet ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-22652083
"All I'm going to say is that we've conducted a very serious investigation and there's no indication that Madeleine McCann's parents are connected to her disappearance. On the other hand, we have a lot of evidence pointing out that Christian killed her," Wolter told the "Friday at 9"....

If you really think the McCann's have had their human rights impinged, I find that quite laughable.

it was Madeleine's right to be protected, by her parents and guardians.

In which they failed abjectly.

Sally Bercow, by the way is OFF TOPIC.

Right from the start of the year when you and and others have been crowing about the Portuguese judges doing so, it has been my firm belief that their judgement denied the McCann right to the presumption of innocence which is enshrined in law.  It will be interesting to see if the European Court agrees with me on that one ... or with you.

They first have to, accept the case.

...and it won't be against Amaral, either.

Meanwhile i anticipate action against the McCann's by the Portuguese, as they have not paid up after the Supreme Court Judgement.

Tell me Brietta, how do you defend the McCann's failure to look after Madeleine's human rights ?
