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?

A chaise longue isn’t very comfortable, so, if the lady looks attractive on her chaise longue, she must be reclining in a very special way. Or maybe it is the clothes she wears? Could we know more Saul?

AZ .. why did you disappear when I asked if you are the tourist with the photos?

Because your next post left me all flustered and speechless, I don’t normally have that effect on women.

Bummer just as it starts to get interesting on here, the (delightfully lovely and very well behaved) kids (which seem to have increased in number - again) want to be fed.

I’d like to see the reclining woman in la chaise longue.
What is so attractive about the picture? The lady or la chaise longue?
August 13th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
secret (whoever you are)
Which photo are you taking about? The tapas 8 at the beachside restuarant, the tapas 9/10 in the tapas bar or the ‘femme fatale’ of the oil rigs?

Going back to that handwritten timeline, pictured in last Sunday’s News of the World, interesting that it doesn’t mention the GM/JW meeting at 9.15.
PS Where did Garth go, doesn’t he want to discuss timelines after all?

Just ‘aving a read AZ. What’s there to discuss?

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.

Tanner has a girl her age. Jess’ wife = O’Donnel [Brigitte I think]

Aha, well you see……….. you cant get out of it now. Noooooo sir.
We aint daft here on anorak. And we certainly aint easily misled.
We know all about that photo and we know it will nail the McCanns once and for all.
OOOH yes , you can not pull the wool over our ears!

Saul: “[...] a Female with a, shall we say somewhat, ” chequered past”. This would seem to tie into some previous research I have done regarding “Chaise Lounges”.
So far I have narrowed it down to being a smoker with a penchant for platform shoes, and Coffee.”

Pfew, you got me sweating for a moment, but the platform shoes definitely proof it isn’t me …
August 13th, 2008 at 5:15 pm

Speaking of Photo’s, and folding money.
In a Drillers shack, on a to remain nameless North Sea drilling rig, I have come across a, Glamour Black and White poster/ photograph. It would appear that on this site there is a Female with a, shall we say somewhat, ” chequered past”. This would seem to tie into some previous research I have done regarding “Chaise Lounges”.
So far I have narrowed it down to being a smoker with a penchant for platform shoes, and Coffee.
At the moment it is going through image enhancement to determine the brand of cigarettes.
Who could this Sweetheart of the Oil Industry be? This Siren of the Roughnecks!
Do you deny its you?
