"Portuguese police believe Madeleine was snatched by a foreigner..."

[Alfred R Jones]

...no longer living in Portugal"

as reiterated in the latest news report today.

So, where does that leave the theory that the McCanns are still suspects in their daughter's disappearance? 

Are we really to believe that the PJ are just saying this to throw the McCanns off the scent or is it finally time to accept once and for all that as Andy Redwood clearly stated a while back "Neither the McCanns nor any of their friends are suspects"? 

And if so does it mean that as far as the "sceptics" are concerned that the PJ are blindly incompetent or does it mean they are being forced by dark powers to engage in a whitewash?

Or could it actually mean that having carefully and logically weighed up all the evidence (that "sceptics" refuse to believe exists) they have come to the conclusion that Madeleine's disappearance was the result of a stranger abduction?

In this context, a foreigner would be anyone who was not Portuguese - British for example.

Stranger than what?

Correct.  And also (according to the PT report) dead.  Does that match the description of any of the McCann holiday group?

I haven't seen that report, where does it come from?

Do strangers perchance include part of a group on holiday in Portugal  ?

Apologies for misleading the forum, I misquoted the article and I have amended my opening post accordingly. 

However, Do you seriously think the PJ believe Madeleine was snatched by one of the Tapas group?
