Madeleine McCann: A Tapas Quiz, Doctors And McCanns
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
SUNDAY PEOPLE: “COPS’ 3-DAY TAPAS QUIZ”
Big news for those who thought the cops’ specialist food knowledge was donuts and kebabs. Cops making a last-ditch bid to solve the Maddie McCann mystery will spend only THREE DAYS quizzing the Tapas Seven.
Not the Tapas Nine. Not the Sangria Seven.
The detectives are particularly keen to see Dr David Payne, Jane Tanner and her partner Dr Russell O’Brien. Doctors Gerry and Kate, both 39, are not expected to face more questioning.
Doctors. Such are the facts.
The friends deny that their initial statements contain contradictions. But Portuguese police hope that ironing out apparent inconsistencies will help solve the riddle.
THIS IS LONDON: “‘Tapas Nine’ to face three days of police interviews”
Portuguese police are planning to question the so-called Tapas Nine during three days of interviews in a final attempt to solve the mystery of Madeleine McCann’s disappearance.
The so-called Tapas Seven.
Mr and Mrs McCann, who are both still official suspects, are not expected to be questioned.”
DAILY MIRROR: “Tapas Seven to be questioned again in Madeleine case”
The Tapas Seven, who had dinner with the McCanns on the night their daughter Madeleine, four, vanished, will have more than 100 questions put to them by Portuguese police.
Any other facts?
A source told Portuguese paper 24 Horas, said: “We are at a crucial phase. There are clear contradictions in the statements that the McCanns and their friends gave. Many things have to be clarified.
“The need to question Madeleine’s parents again will be determined by the results of the interrogations of their holiday friends.”
Or not. Such are the facts.

Iringena,
“Police interviews are also planned with relatives and advisers who were with the McCanns during the early days of the investigation.” - BBC Online.

Wow, that’s the real news, isn’t it? Everything else we already “kind of” knew from Portugueses papers, but this really is NEWS and comes as a surprise.

Have we heard anything more about Malinka’s car?
March 31st, 2008 at 6:57 am
Ade!!! I think that we are onto something serious here. Is this why they may have a pact? Coz they don’t want us knowing that aliens are to-ing and fro-ing all over Europe stealing children?
There is something about the eyes of all the Clan. Maybe they are pod people or the first human-looking robots to have been invented.
I have thought for some time that they are not wired up properly,

From another site, direct quotes from the head of the PJ, to many to list.
If there were to be trial, would this be in Portugal?
We would first need to define the facts and then those responsible. Of course, the trial should take place here, even without those accused. But this is a very distant question which we have not yet considered. And it does not mean that we think that those who are to be tried are British citizens.Do you maintain the expression that all leads are still open or do you by now have a distinct line of investigation?
In these cases we never close all the doors. Because there is always the surprise factor.
Is there agreement, that investigation has dismissed the hypothesis of the kidnapping?
No … we are assessing all the hypotheses. New informations are brought nearly every week.
Have you formed any definite idea about this case, in your mind?
I know the general lines. I might have an idea, but it is for me.
When are the arrests going to happen?
First we need to know what happened in the “Maddie case”. I don’t know whether there will be any arrests, yet.

Just watched ‘Poltergeist’ film last night. Is it possible for a kiddie to get sucked into a TV screen?
I wonder if the Clan thought about this? Could MMC have vapourised?
I think there are many more theories to look at!!!
March 31st, 2008 at 6:35 am
Can’t see any sensationalising around these interviews because it looks like everybody’s in handcuffs or otherwise tied up to God knows what or who knows what!
Hoping everybody has a good memory so that this case can be solved one way or another. Wondering which way our press is leaning towards the abduction theory or other alternatives.
I can’t find the source that I used last year because I think it’s been deleted from the web - but there were alien spacecaft hovering over PDL on a number of occasions prior to the disappearance of MMc.
Not just jet-ski man with a 3 or 4 foot bundle going out to a somewhat military boat waiting off-shore to be concerned about. What about aliens? Have the Clan thought about this one?

interviews for the wider group suggests a longer interview period than 3 days too
especially if one of the taparratti is refusing to set a date
i read earlier that 2 months was being set aside
brilliant fun - they are really squirming now
March 31st, 2008 at 6:06 am
mornin’ all
bbc think there will be interviews despite reporter’s inside contacts
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7321963.stm
“The friends who were on holiday with Madeleine McCann’s parents when the girl went missing are to be reinterviewed by police in the UK.
The group of seven will be questioned next week by Leicestershire Police, with Portuguese detectives present”
great sport

Correction (!)
“Police interviews are also planned with relatives and advisers who were with the McCanns during the early days of the investigation.” - BBC Online.
This is official confirmation that the enquiries have widened well beyond Tapas9. What involvement these relatives and advisers had with unfolding events is unclear, and what light they can throw on the investigation remains to be seen.
March 31st, 2008 at 5:48 am
Wonder which papers will dare to publish anything at all about the disappearance of this poor child!
Wonder what they could possibly write without the best lawyers jumping about threatening to sue!
Bet there are no TV crews hanging about prior to the interviewees leaving their homes and walking into the nicks!
March 31st, 2008 at 5:36 am
“The friends who were on holiday with Madeleine McCann’s parents when the girl went missing are to be reinterviewed by police in the UK. One of the group, Jane Tanner, has already told the police she saw a man that evening carrying a child, close to the family’s apartment.” - BBC Online.
Observe the unsubtle bias of our state broadcaster toward Abduction Theory, a theory which of course conveniently exonerates any of Tapas9 of involvement in the death of Madeleine McCann, though it does not of course exonerate the parents for the responsibility for the abduction, if that is what in fact occurred.
Observe also, that of the reams of evidence already provided to the police by Tapas9, only this piece is sufficiently well-known to be repeated by the BBC. It is sufficiently well-known, because it has been incessantly repeated, embroidered and exploited by the money faction behind McCann, in an attempt to establish Abduction Theory as the only possible explanation of the disappearance of Madeleine.
There is much evidence in the hands of the investigating authorities to suggest that Abduction Theory is Hoax Theory.
“Police interviews are also planned with relatives and advisers who were with the McCanns during the early days of the investigation.” - BBC Online.
Just who these relatives and advisers are is well known to Anorak readers and the Policia Judiciaria, among others.

For all the people who write rot on this site about no police interviews for the Clan. GMTV have just said on the 6am news that they will be interviewed. Now would they take a risk on saying this in the present climate? Of course not. So get real like the decent people on here.
Alternatively, maybe the Clan could use your pathetic reasons and excuses and fabricated tripe to throw into their next concoction of bollocks! They are running out of ideas.
March 31st, 2008 at 2:21 am
well i see they are going to question the friends AGAIN?!?!?! I hope this time they get some real info that will tell us what happen to Madeleine. This has gone on way too long!!

It was from a poster on another forum, who is Portugese and info is respected. He/she
claims the OC staff and other witnesses heard Kate screaming and Madeleine”s voice,
then silence………this about 6.30pm on 3rd May. Also, I posted that another comment
from a poster, who I know has previously been right on two occasions has said
one of the Tapas 7 is refusing to arrange a date to be interviewed. You certainly can”t
trust the Press to provide truthful reports, so it”s good that other sources are keeping
us informed, if true, of course.
