New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

[Carana]

So - either Amaral was not privy to the investigations into local criminal element on his doorstep as part of the wider investigation into Madeleine's disappearance (why not?) and was told about it later by his ex colleagues who were either telling the truth (that they knocked on CB's door and gave up when no one answered) or were lying to Amaral for reasons best known to themselves
OR
Amaral DID know about investigations into the local paedos and crooks, knew that CB was a person of interest and that his door was knocked on at the time, and is lying in his interview about only being told about it by his ex-colleagues  years after the event. 

Crikey it's complicated, the web of deceit and deflection being woven about it.

The truth might lie somewhere in the middle. It's possible that GNR officers simply mused that one of the houses / vans on which they knocked could have been his.

Jassi, as a ‘non-researcher’ by your own admission, your contribution seems to be a veiled attempt to discredit any other contribution by other members to the Forum. This is my own opinion.

No comment on the actual post, just a rather feeble attack on the poster.

Sure that must be against the rules  - not that it bothers me.

Anthro's comment was a critique of your posts not of you personally, and it's one I happen to agree with.

The truth is always somewhat difficult to grasp when Amaral is involved I find.

In the media today:
They urge to take cautious cooperation in Madeleine case
MAY 19, 2021 - 02:00

Detention. Christian Manfred Kruse was arrested in Bethlehem
The clarification of the case of the British girl Madeleine McCann, who disappeared in 2007, could be thanks to a Paraguayan cooperation, but the investigators urge to take this with caution.

The arrest of Christian Manfred Kruse (58), the German citizen who was captured in Belén, Concepción, could be key to reaching those responsible for the girl's disappearance.

Commissioner Jorge Olmedo, from the Police Anti-kidnapping Department, who participated in that operation, indicated that versions were heard that the German could be linked to the Madeleine case, but anticipated that there is a lot of data that still has to be corroborated.

The version that the uniformed men handle is that Kruse would have participated in the kidnapping of the girl.

The German's arrest was the result of work that had the help of German policemen and that in our country was led by prosecutor Irma Llano.

The man was wanted in three countries internationally, since he handled at least four pages of child pornography, was in charge of advising pedophiles from all over the world and decided who was part of the network, as well as accepting or rejecting sexual content.

In the case of Belén, a platform was discovered where there were 400,000 members, and sources consulted by ÚH say that all the material seized in the operation must first be analyzed.

THE CASE. Madeleine disappeared 14 years ago, when she was in a hotel in Portugal, spending the holidays with her family. It was May 3, 2007 and since then the follow-up of the case became a puzzle.

Her parents Gerry and Kate McCann are campaigning around the world to try to get to the truth in this case.

Prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters, who is leading the investigation in Germany, claims that the police are convinced that the girl died in Portugal.

The investigation indicates that the girl was murdered after a kidnapping that occurred in the room where she slept in the rented place to spend her vacations.

During these years of investigation, the version that the girl was brought to Paraguay was also mentioned.

This was said by the private investigator of British origin Miraz Ullah Ali Isa, who was in our country, but this version was discarded by the Police.

I think that's probably the most likely explanation.

[Vertigo Swirl]

I think that's probably the most likely explanation.

And I wonder what the most likely explanation is for Amaral going onto Portuguese TV to tell his expectant public that CB had dreadlocks and a van graffiti'ed at the time of Madeleine's disappearance?  I'm sure there's a perfectly innocent explanation which no one has bothered to put forward yet...

[jassi]

Given that, as yet, there appears to be no connection between Kruse , Brueckner and Madeleine, it seems wise for police to be cautious.

Interestingly, Wolters recently said that the weren't looking at anyone other than Brueckner in connection with Madeleine

IMO

I think Wolters has evidence of thr connection.  It may be that CB acted alone but shared a video with others

[jassi]

In the absence of verifiable  information, one can only surmise what the situation might be.

I see statements made by Wolters.. Live and in English... Verifiable

[jassi]

Yes, but he doesn't really say anything, other than 'he believes'.

[Mr Gray]

Yes, but he doesn't really say anything, other than 'he believes'.

Yes he does.. He says we have concrete evidence that Maddie is dead and that CB murdered her.  He says anyone who knew the evidence would agree with him

That has perplexed me since Amaral's frantic posturing with his photographs on Portuguese TV was spectacularly turned right around and debunked with when the video showing the true version of what Brueckner's van looked like as well as what he looked like.

Amaral promoted with a vengeance the misleading misinformation he was spreading.  I for one would like to hear his innocent explanation for doing that.

Not only was he interfering in an active police investigation - he was attempting to utterly derail it.  WOW!

I’m sure one of his apologists will explain it all.
