You must remember the claim? That they were cleared by the archiving dispatch, which was not accepted by the Supreme Court.
The funny thing is that so many of the Portuguese articles I have read in the past couple of years have stated just exactly that and if not quite as a sine qua non more as an established fact of a situation which doesn't require emphasis.
I come across it regularly particularly when I'm looking for something else ~ but it seems that of late the word 'cleared' is definitely used in connection with the arguidos in Madeleine's case in the Portuguese press.
From July 2008 in the English press
McCanns and Murat formally cleared in case of missing Madeleine https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2008/jul/21/madeleinemccann.internationalcrimeTo September 2020 in the Portuguese press the concensus is
"CLEARED" and I think this is a situation the ECHR might resolve when the McCann case is eventually heard.
