CB has been declared ‘arguido’ by the PJ.

[Eleanor]

There must be a huge element of embarrassment at work and left to their own devices the Portuguese would probably have been content to see the Statute of Limitations come and go and Madeleine's fate for ever to be a mystery.
 
Then came the Germans.

Volters has said he has evidence which if seen cannot be denied.  Although German law didn't permit him to share it in the public domain perhaps it allowed it to be shared with the heads of a joint investigation.
The Portuguese may have seen it and agree with his assessment of it.

Wouldn't Portugal look silly if they can't prosecute Brueckner but Germany can.

[Vertigo Swirl]

Nah, storm in a tea cup, it'll peter out again.

You hope...

You hope...

Realism, give it a go.

[Vertigo Swirl]

You need to revisit that number .

How many then?  I only got a C at Maddie A Level, sorry.

[Vertigo Swirl]

Realism, give it a go.

No one has a firmer grip on realism than me, thanks.

 Three in 2007, 4 in 2014, now the one and only , CB.

[Vertigo Swirl]

Realism, give it a go.

I seem to recall you peddling the line recently that HCW had gone quiet because they were only keeping up the pretense of an investigation for reasons you were unable to spell out, is that still your view?  Why are the Portuguese playing along with it then?  Perhaps with your firm grasp on reality you can explain it to us idiots on here?

They can't. Their extradition laws forbid it.
Unless it's in absentia, which is unlikely.

We would never have heard of the rape the Portuguese failed to prosecute but the Germans did successfully

That gave pause for thought both at home and abroad.

Wouldn't it have been considered untenable for Madeleine's case to go the same way.  I doubt it would have looked good in the eyes of the world and saving some face has to be salvaged.

Certainly a fascinating development if you can remove all thoughts for the welfare of the family at the heart of it all.

[G-Unit]

They can't. Their extradition laws forbid it.
Unless it's in absentia, which is unlikely.

So why make him an arguido?

The PJ played Grange for fools in 2014, its the same now. Wolters is desperate , he has nothing ,he says himself its all circumstantial, wonder what hillside he wants to landscape.

If its at the German request then it can't be said it was because of their ( the PJ) obstruction that the BKA couldn't procced.

[barrier]

Has it gone full circle and the PJ are once again the lead .
