British police commence ground searches and digs in Praia da Luz.

Have you seen them actually dig yet ...?

Well I've seen shovels and dust bins full of earth being removed....

I've seen officers in forensic get up go in to tents. I've seen evrd's deployed....

I can only think that they're currently looking for a body, hence I am waiting for a body to be found. I fail to understand how that is sick?

Sadie ..it was also said on ITV news at 6 about the tunnel ..

Cheers lizibif 

By now they should know I am totally honest, but that doesn't go down well with some of them.

Perhaps now they will believe about the mecdia thoughts, maybe knowledge? that there is a tunnel.  I thought they said something about rungs set in the wall going down, but I am not sure about that..  Maybe I glimpsed them.  Was there anything about that Lizi?

"Meanwhile, detectives are said to be exploring the sewers of the Ocean Club ... According to Portuguese media, the British officers will lower cameras on fibre-optic cables into the pipes this afternoon in a bid to find objects that may have been abandoned at the time."

waiting is one thing ...hoping is another ..yes sick! although I think your wait/hope will be fruitless imo..

You mean you want to pass up the opportunity of the perpetrator being identified from forensics?

Waiting does not equate to hoping. I did explain that in an earlier post.

I cannot help thinking why this all hasn't been done 7 years ago.. Hope Amaral is watching ;)

Oh he will have found some excuse to have failed to do it.

Such a shame , his men worked so hard.

I believe the PJ should have levelled the whole of Portugal & removed & forensically examined roughly a 2 metre depth of soil from every square metre of the country's surface, in the search for Madeleine.

Yes, it should've been done 7 years ago. Madeleine shouldn't have been left alone in the first place. Police shouldn't have allowed the media or family members to dictate the direction of the investigation in the form of a stated abduction and numerous sightings being broadcast.

Many things should, should not have been done. Hopefully the ones that can be rectified are now.

I believe the PJ should have levelled the whole of Portugal & removed & forensically examined roughly a 2 metre depth of soil from every cubic metre of the country's surface, in the search for Madeleine.

And still they wouldn't have found her as she had been wooshed out of the country, either by boat or by car and is living on a Mediterranean island, or in an Arabian palace, or some such in the lap of luxury.

Seems to me you are criticising the National Policing Improvement Agency, it is them who advised Mr Amaral which scrubland areas to search with cadaver dogs.
The scrubland areas to be searched by cadaver dogs in 2007 were all selected by UK experts.

There is many things what the PJ could of should of & would of done, in hindsight.

Could off. Should off. Would off.  Perleaze.

fibre-optic cameras in sewers at the complex, this operation has been well-planned.
