Judging bt the person making the statement it would be GA.

So there is no such complaint as libel against Goncalo Amaral?  Yet I have the feeling he is more a victim rather than the master of his own downfall.

Oh there is and it is cracked down on he same as other libels.

That's what police do ferryman, they ask questions and suggest answers.   

I've watched some amazing police interviews that have been released on YT. In those, no harsh interview techniques, no threats of mistreatment... Just a very gentle form of questioning that led to the person in question being bound up in a metaphorical binding tape of their own making.

Except for those who refuse to answer questions - they avoid getting  tied up.

Indeed.

Wonder why they didn't show her the police sketches taken from the Smith descriptions to the inquiry to see if she might have noticed any matching faces hanging around in the run up to Madeleine's disappearance?

Whoops ... they didn't do any.  Apparently of the three witness statements we have seen none were able to adequately describe the man's features.

I understand exactly what you are getting at, but this would have been mighty difficult in a situation where the PJ were speaking in Portuguese and the interviewee was speaking in English.

Ricardo Paiva, who conducted Kate McCann's arguida interrogation is a fluent English speaker ~ hence his appointment as liaison officer to the victim's family.

The legality was that the interview be conducted in Portuguese.  Whether Paiva needed an interpreter was not relevant.

Which other PJ officer sat in and how was his/her English?  How good was Kate's lawyer's English?  Why was there a translator if everything could be done in English?  Do English police officers fluent in Portuguese conduct serious interviews with a native-Portuguese speaker in Portuguese if the incident in question occurred in England?

The technique described by Carana has a high success rate at places like airports, in weeding out illegal immigrants, as opposed to body language or behavioural analysis, which was found to have as much chance of accuracy as tossing a coin.

Perhaps, questions predicated on actual evidence rather than manufactured pap.

In the Cipriano interviews, language was no barrier; techniques of intimidation (far worse, even, than those employed against the McCanns) disturbingly prevalent.

Was that proven to be Paiva or someone cloning him?

[Brietta]

Nope ... according to Joana (just google ... joana morais and paiva ... for the link) it was him in the flesh so to speak.
Disciplinary action was taken against him by his bosses.
