So what does everyone think this will be?

how reliable is the information that there is going to be an announcement

[G-Unit]

Is Heri not privy to that?

[The Singularity]

Maybe there is an arrest happening today, the only other thing I can think of is despite the additional funding, the investigation team have drawn a blank

An arrest would seem unlikely, as they have been advertising they are searching for someone.

Who knows?  Perhaps they will say that The McCanns have been investigated and Ruled Out.

Didn't Redwood already indicate that before he drew his pension?

[jassi]

Didn't Redwood already indicate that before he drew his pension?

Not in those actual words, rather that he really wasn't interested in them.  I can understand that   

[Eleanor]

Didn't Redwood already indicate that before he drew his pension?

I thought so, but some do not agree.

[Alfie]

Perhaps they are going to announce that the McCanns dunnit.

The deputy director of the Judicial Police, Pedro do Carmo, has affirmed the Portuguese continuation of the investigation into Madeleine's disappearance until either she is found or the inquiry runs out of further options.

Translation of the article Brietta links to:

The Judicial Police continues to investigate Madeleine McCann's disappearance in 2007 in the Algarve, admitting that it is "a unique case in the history of the PJ and the country." "The case is still open, yes," and the investigation was handed over to a team from PJ do Porto, revealed the deputy director of the Judicial Police, Pedro do Carmo, in an interview with the Lusa agency, about the ten years of the disappearance of the Bichana , Then three years old, from the tourist resort Ocean Club, in Praia da Luz, Lagos. For PJ number two, the outlines of Maddie's disappearance are "a unique case in the history of the country and the PJ." "We had never had a similar case nor did we have it," said Pedro do Carmo, admitting that the police "have every interest in knowing what happened, because this is the way to draw conclusions for future situations." Asked if the long time elapsed is the enemy of the investigation, the official admitted that "PJ is aware that, as time passes, it will become more difficult to reach answers or results." "Anyway we have this hope and we have reason to have this hope," he said.

A communication (commendably) scant on detail (the public have no automatic right to know) and very similar to a model adopted in England when information is released publicly about a current and on-going investigation. 

A compromise from the clamp of absolute secrecy (at least demanded) of a criminal investigation in Portugal at the time Madeleine disappeared broadly akin to the approach (now) adopted in England by our sub judice laws, which allow release of (limited) information about a live, and on-going police investigation.

What grabbed by attention when reading that was ...  "Anyway we have this hope and we have reason to have this hope,"

What grabbed by attention when reading that was ...  "Anyway we have this hope and we have reason to have this hope,"

Isn't it strange?

I completely missed that last sentence.

But yes!

Sadly, stuff I've picked up from elsewhere would not seem to corroborate that note of optimism. 

We'll see ....
