Madeleine McCann: Tourist Has New Pictures Of Tapas 7 For Sale
PAULO Reis has published an interesting piece of information on the Madeleine McCann case on his site. Read on:
“McCann case: 24 pictures that may help to re-open the case
A tourist who was (allegedly) at the Tapas Bar, on the night of May 3, took several pictures where the table with the McCanns and their friends is visible.
The tourist was with his wife and another couple and they took pictures from each other, with the McCann table on the background.
The owner of the pictures is (said to be) negotiating with several British newspapers to sell the rights for an exclusive publication, but with a condition: before being published, the pictures must be sent to the Portuguese police.
The tourist is well aware that the pictures may have important evidence related with a crime and not sending it to police is considered also a crime, in his country.
Yesterday, a well known legal office from UK (allegedly) knew about the existence of those pictures and contacted the owner, offering to buy all pictures for 600,000 Euros. But the British lawyers didn’t accept the condition set by the owner – that the pictures should be sent to the Portuguese police, just before the transaction. The lawyers’ office wanted to be free to choose the moment when the pictures would be send to Portuguese authorities, so the offer was refused by the tourist.“

Wrires Carmen:
Assuming that the above is true and genuine, it begs the question, when exactly did ‘British lawyers’ feel that they were able to dictate when information in a criminal case should be handed over to the police? Is Madeleine not a Ward of Court, are they not officers of the court? Do they not have a duty to the court - the British court - not just the Portuguese court, to instantly hand over any information that may be pertinent to solving the riddle of what happened to Madeleine.
I have mixed feelings regarding the purchase of information when it is done by newspapers, but is this a new era, that information is being purchased by lawyers, who then decide what to do with it?
Why has the tourist not come forward before?
What or whom, is, or is not, in those photographs that makes them worth 600,000 euros.
Where is the 600,000 euros coming from - the last we heard the McCann Find Madeleine fund was down to it’s last 480,000 euros.So it could not possibly be the legal firm involved with the McCann Fund…could it?
One other question would be if the tourist sold the pictures to a legal firm intent on suppression - would the gent have his collar felt?

Suffice to say, the said reclining female is alone. (apart from the photographer of course).
When the image enhancement is complete, I may have further clues.

Catalina, thank you, if that is from the Paulo Reiss site hopefully Anorak won’t mind you posting it.
This part of the story hasn’t been given much of an airing - if you Google wilkins purple dress there are only 2 0r 3 hits. Interesting that JW has her on the scene at 8.15 but not 9.15.
8.15 would be about the time when they were all making their way to the Tapas bar, or maybe just before that. I understand it would be getting dark in PDL at about 8.30 but I could be wrong.

Abraham Zapruder,
Hola!
Some info for you: sunset at Lisbon, Portugal was at 8:30pm on 3 May 2007. It would have been dark half an hour later, so 9pm.

BUT who is sitting next to Russell in the beach bar cctv still ??
could it be a relative of Tapas 10 ?
****
IF Webster was not at the Paraíso bar, as reported, there’s definitely one person too many at that table [if not also one child too many...]. Afraid I have no idea as to who that might be. T10, relative of T10, holiday acquaintance [with child?]… Enhancement of this CCTV still, or maybe rather the whole video might be enlightening in this respect.

You mean, between either Matt & Jane or Matt & Russell? Hm .. I think it’s quite normal when couples are not always sitting together at a meal. Don’t forget it was their 6th night out …
Or do you mean something else? Then try give me a hint

I am only catching up now. What you write about the stolen wallet is interesting. I had never thought about it that way. Do you remember that American profiler commenting about it at the time? She found the story weird, and thought it needed more investigation. I’ll look for her name and a link to what she wrote then.

Were you photographed in this chequered past that you deny?

One of the tapas 8 have a little girl similar in age to madeleine. Ges’s wife (can’t remember her name ) commented that they all looked similar.

EXACTLY - can’t accuse me of haveing no sence of ironery now can you?
August 13th, 2008 at 5:04 pm
I guess I missed some information about this still shot, which I just realized does include a child that I would say looks just like Madeleine, sitting on the lap of O’Brien.
Her parents’ report conflicts with this evidence. Does anyone know if the PJ report included a comment on the date and time and the child that looks like Madeleine?
August 13th, 2008 at 5:02 pm
I’d still like to know the nationality of the tourists? and where the story originated from?
August 13th, 2008 at 5:02 pm
“I imagine that on this site there are many females with chequered pasts ( the lucky b’s) ”
I deny it all

To the Editor of Anorak:
Dear Sir,
The picture that you published, with the transcription of the story published by me and my colleague Duarte Levy, may create a wrong (if not misleading) idea, to Anorak readers.
THAT PICTURE IS F ROM A STORY PUBLISHED BY NEWS OF THE WORLD AND HAS NO RELATION WITH OUR STORY ABOUT 24 PICTURES TAKEN AT THE NIGHT OF MAY 3, IN THE TAPAS BAR, BY TWO COUPLES OF TOURISTS.
I received several emails, accusing me of publishing a false story, because “in the picture I published there are children present, and at the night of May 3, on the McCann table, at Tapas Bar, there were no children present” - this is one of the emails I received.
So, I would like to make it clear: WE, PAULO REIS AND DUARTE LEVY, DIDN’T PUBLISHED THE PICTURE ABOVE, IN OUR BLOGS. IN FACT, WE PUBLISHED NO PICTURE AT ALL, WITH THE STORY MENTIONED HERE, IN ANORAK.
