Kate says that the blanket was taken by the abductors, but the PJ took a
photograph
of it. Then it disappeared.
When Kate was interviewed on 26 April last year on the
Oprah Winfrey
show, she made an appeal: "I hope that the abductors cover her with her
blanket." The mother of Maddie, who disappeared in
Praia da Luz
in 2007, was referring to the pink blanket which 4 year old Maddie slept
with every night. This same blanket was photographed by the PJ on the
day following the disappearance, but it was never seen again. "If the
blanket was there the next day, how was it possible for the abductors to
take it. It is also with this that I will try to get the case
reopened.", stated
Goncalo Amaral,
ex-coordinator of the
PJ in Portimao.
"There are many new facts that I will hand over to the Ministerio
Publico and which I believe to be enough to get this case, which should
never have been shelved, reopened. This is one more detail. We need to
know which blanket was Kate talking about, because the pink one stayed
in the apartment. Now it is missing."
"All of these details will be presented to a prosecutor (procurador) and
I was not able to do this earlier because the
McCanns
prohibited me, against the Constitution, from doing so", he continued.
In a communique, the McCanns' lawyer accused Goncalo Amaral of
"producing damaging insinuations to invoke the faults of the
investigation",
and that
Maddie's
disappearance is "an unending source of enrichment
through false and offensive accusations which are prejudicial to the
investigation". Amaral defends himself: "I am speaking and working with
facts. I have not become rich from this case and I find it strange that
the parents of a missing child are only worried about their legal
defence in the case and do not want the truth to be found. They never
wanted Justice to work."
WIKILEAKS
One of the 250.000 diplomatic documents, on the Wikileaks site, revealed
that the British police found evidence against the parents. The new
information could lead to the reopening of the case.
REPORT
In the communique, the couple's lawyer says that the report done by
Goncalo Amaral "was incriminating and did not resist its own analysis"
and ended up being shelved after 8 months of investigation.
(nota:
this idiot lawyer doesn't know that the final report was written by
Tavares de Almeida and not Goncalo Amaral).
FUND
Goncalo Amaral guarantees to CM that he intends to reopen the case, not
to earn money, but for justice. "It wasn't me who was able to buy a
house through a fund, like the McCanns were able to do." |
