Was he still living in PdL at the time?

Ask Misty. She seems to think that the German police sent him a letter, so they must have had his address.

I’m asking you because you suggested that OG knocked on his door too.

I was being sarcastic -  in case it passed you by.

Could be but the authorities will be in a position to know which masts these two calls were routed through.  Since we know the PAYG is a Portuguese number then it surely stands to reason the unidentified caller/receiver was based in Portugal so why air on German TV?

Because he is a German citizen, in prison at Kiel Germany? Broadcasts and translations thereof, are available within hours. Public interest is at its highest, I think, so citizens of all countries will read about this within hours of broadcast. And will respond.

The press report said the unidentified number was a pre-paid phone card. This may indicate that it was purchased by a foreign tourist - possibly German? - when they arrived at the airport.

That is a very interesting observation, Misty.

Back in 2007, the easiest was to get a payg phone since the roaming option, at the time, was extremely expensive. We were in Cyprus during that year and we did exactly that.

My daughter & her then bf went to Turkey around 2009/10. They bought pre-paid Sim cards from Orange to use when they were over there because, as you said, it was a much cheaper option than roaming charges.

A known drug dealer talks to another contact on a prepaid phone. The Germans may get a drug bust out of this lead because it has nothing to do with MM.

Says who?

I do as will be proven when the hiding Smithman is revealed!

You would need to ask the pj... It's a Portuguese investigation

So what has the Met spent 12/13 million on?
