It was the PJ who wanted Jane to ID Murat before they issued a search warrant for his premises. Nothing to do with UK police.

According to Jane's rogatory statement there was no general discussion of her sighting ... which she told the police about as soon as she could when they arrived on the scene.
Why would the tapas group discuss Amaral.  They didn't know him.  They didn't know where he lived.  Jane certainly never ID him.

I said discuss Robert Murat.  They were certainly extremely keen to point the finger.

[Angelo222]

If Jane Tanner "just thought it was" why no mention of it in the files?

Wasn't that why the undercover operation took place in the first place involving Tanner?

How did they (not including Jane) point the finger when all they said was that they remembered seeing him near 5A on the night of the 3rd?

And how would they do that when they are already through the window but nobody went through it so I can ignore that question.

It was already proven that someone could get into the apartment through the window,  a PJ officer went through the window.

I don't think that the abductor entered through the window though,  I believe he had a key,  the window was opened for another reason,  maybe for the Police to believe the abductor had entered that way to put them off the scent that someone had a key.  IMO

Yup, that could very well be.

All we need is the identity of this person.

Why? Abductor doesn't have to mean stranger.

As you were then.

I don't think so.  I think it was just another pythonesque venture dreamed up by the Judicial police.

How could she have "just thought it was" since she didn't know Murat from Adam (even when she almost walked into him on her way to the 'stakeout') and she certainly was not one of those who said they had seen him outside the apartment 3/4 May.

I wonder if the PJ are allowed to ask a witness to identify someone secretly? I don't think it would be allowed in the UK.

It’s not without cause that even the parents own private investigators saw Tanner as an unreliable witness.

Not to worry though, I’m sure the current PJ and SY investigation will know exactly what happened during the van incident.

What makes you sure of that?  I doubt they've given it any consideration at all, too busy looking for the person who abducted Madeleine.

I doubt very much if Scotland Yard or the Judicial police have given much thought to any of the events of the first four months of the investigation into Madeleine's disappearance once they had both got their independent scoping exercises out of the way.

I do not think that an investigation which is stuck like a fly in aspic is going to reach any kind of conclusion.  Investigations which progress from studying evidence for what can be discarded or is relevant for progressing to the next stage have a much better chance.

I believe the Smith sighting was one of the ‘events’of the first four months of the investigation and we know how seriously that’s been taken.
