Madeleine McCann: Bushra Binhisa, Bouchra Benaissa And The Irishman
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann.
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “HEARTBREAK.
• Girls in Morocco is NOT Madeleine
• Police insists: We know she’s dead
It’s heartbreak, but for whom? The McCanns, who remain suspects, or Daily Express readers who want our Maddy found?
The Madeleine lookalike seen in Morocco – we’ll she’s blonde-ish – is Bushra Binhisa. She bears a “striking resemblance to Madeleine”. As we say, she’s sort of blonde.
Pages 8 and 9: “It’s terrible this is not Madeleine.”
“I saw that little face. It was her,” says Spanish tourist Isabel Gonzalez. She saw a blonde toddler in Morocco. “I screamed at my husband for him to stop the car…but by the time we had stopped and jumped out, the woman and the girl had disappeared…I was in tears, distraught, and I felt totally powerless. I am a mother so I can imagine what Madeleine’s parents must be going through.”
“Police take a swipe at parents” – a Police Judiceria source says the McCanns are trying to deflect attention away from themselves.
A senior police source says the McCanns are using “diversionary tactics”.
DAILY MIRROR front page: “I am Not Maddy.”
No, the little girl remains Bouchra Benaissa. Or she might be Bushra Binhisa (see Express).
Pages 4 and 5: the Benaissa family have six cows, several goats, a small olive grove and vegetable patch. Their home has three bedrooms and a wood-burning stove. Neither parent is a doctor.
THE SUN front page: “ANGUISH FOR KATE. Morocco photo was local girl Bouchra.” She is aged 3. In the Express she is aged 5.
Page 7: Ahmed poses with his wife and daughter Bouchra. Says he: “I am very sorry the little English girl is still missing and hope she is found safe and sound.”
Two more women say they have seen Madeleine in Morocco.
Fatima Marzouki, of Birmingham, says she saw Madeleine in Agadir. There are rumours she is being held in a caravan there by an Irish traveller called John. Her friend Helen McPherson thinks she saw Madeleine in Marrakech.
DAILY MAIL front page: “The truth about that Maddie photo.”
Pages 10 and 11: “No, she isn’t Madeleine.”
DAILY STAR front page: “MADDIE STILL IN HOLIDAY RESORT. Morocco pic NOT her..cops says she NEVER left Portugal.”
Pages 4 and 5: “LITTLE GIRL THE WORLD PRAYED WOULD BE MADELEINE.” It’s Bushra Binhisa again. Where’s Bouchra? What have they down with Bouchra?
Page 6: “Forget sightings…Maddie was killed in room say police.”
THE TIMES page 3: “Found – but it’s not Madeleine.”
Clarence Mitchell says: “This Spanish couple did the right thing and we urge others to do the same.” So if you see ‘Madeleine McCann’ you too should go to the papers and appear on the radio.
THE GUARDIAN page 15: “Spanish tourist’s claims of Madeline sighting in Morocco proves false.” Carla Torres, the Spanish tourist, says “It either is her, or she’s got a twin sister.” Do all blonde children look the same to Spaniards? The plot thickens.
THE INDEPENDENT page 6: “McCanns despair as picture of girl in Morocco is child of local farmer.”
DAILY TELEGRAPH front page: “Child pictured in Morocco is not Madeleine.” It’s Bouchra Ben Aisa. She looks a lot like Bushra Binhisa and even more like Bouchra Benaissa.
But she is not Madeleine McCann.

Honestly, unless a person has gone to Morocco and done a face-to-face confirmation, then they shouldn’t be pissing us about with this story. A picture used to be worth a thousand words. However, being a bit of a Photoshop pioneer, I know how easily any photograph can be altered. I’m not naive, I know that she could very well be dead, but I’d feel better if someone would actually visit the country and check.
I realize that after a year, people are starting to care less and less about this child. I on the other hand, feel deep sympathy for anyone who has that need to know. If you are a parent maybe you can back me up on this! It has to be terrible for people who loved that child to never really have definitive proof that she is dead. Just like Natalie Holloway’s mother can’t let go until she knows or has solid proof. Some people go crazy without every knowing. I’m not convinced that her parents give a damn about Maddie, but there are some that do.
This is not the most important news in the world but it’s still significant.

aww they are both so adorable im glad they found bushra so we at least can move on from the haunting suspicion to picture girl was madeleine.

Is it true theres a 2.5 Mill reward for info leading to the wherabouts of the child?
if there is someone would have cracked by now.

735. Moderation,
How have I misrepresented what Gerry McCann asserts he has thought for “quite some time” and how he believes he was in the apartment “with Madeleine’s abductor” on the eve of May 3rd?
If this story has been retracted I have not heard anything of the sort but would immediately apologise if I were to find out I had been mislead by the UK media and then repeated their lie as fact.
As far as spin - I am being ironic. Maybe not as clever as Anorak but I try. After all this is a satire site - right?
September 28th, 2007 at 1:31 pm
755 - speak for yourself. I do want to read things that long! I don’t necessarily agree with every aspect but what Tony Bennett writes is sincere and though provoking.
September 28th, 2007 at 1:24 pm
741,
stop posting essays, they are boring and nobody wants to read anything that long. Man you’ve got serious time on your hands.
September 28th, 2007 at 11:31 am
Sorry meant to say
…the two hours needed between time of death and a dog being able to smell a cadaver becomes less important…
September 28th, 2007 at 11:29 am
Morning! Will try not to cause trouble today (-:
Here’s another idea based on the following press reports - sorry no links.
I can’t remember when the british dogs were first called in but I’m sure it was a while after Maddie disappeared. Could be the same time they sniffed the car which would be nearly or over one month later. With that in mind
Dogs picked up death scent in McCann’s apartment cupboard, car, on car keys on KM’s clothes
Dogs also picked up scent in nearby apartment and on another suspect’s clothes (yes I know, all “press” reports”)
A couple of people stayed behind to help the McCann’s- not sure for how long but three weeks or so comes to mind.
One of the Tapas9 claims to have seen Maddie at 7 oclock being put to bed on May 3rd.
Now if all of that is true, a big if I know, then the timeline between the last sighting of Maddie and the two hours needed between time of death and a dog being able to smell a cadaver becomes less unimportant.
Because If Maddie was removed and placed in another apartment, then brought back some time later, the smell of death would still be picked up.
To build a narrative around this:
Two of the Tapas9 hid Maddie’s body in their apartment on the night of her death where she remained while the police searched the McCann’s apartment until it was thought safe to bring her back into the apartment while they decided on a good hiding place
It then became crucial to completely dispose of the body around the time the two accomplaces had to leave to go back to the UK- the two that stayed behind
So Maddie’s body put in the boot by KM and GK or one of the accomplaces and Maddie and the evidence that could convict them destroyed somehow.
Just a thought…
September 28th, 2007 at 10:32 am
717 - bc - some dogs are trained to only pick up on the scent of blood and some dogs are trained only to pick up on the scent of death..also similar to how some dogs only pick up on the scent of drugs..they are well aware when a dogs smells death or smells blood.

When do you eat and sleep? Just a question, not expecting any answer.
this page had a timetable of nearly everydays doing of the McCanns. It wasn’t only press statements.
It was there for weeks, and now it has disappeared. I wonder why.

Some media said, Gerry was feeling bad on the second of august and posponed things. They left for Huelva on the third of august.
Is there another timetable around?

========================================================
‘ANONYMOUSE’ IS RIGHT AND ‘MODERATION’ IS WRONG
========================================================
735 Moderation
Anonymouse was 100% correct in what he said about Gerry McCann having believed for months that the abductor may have been in the same room with him, and - rather typically for you if I may be so bold as to say - you rubbished his claims without giving the source(s).
Well, here is one of the sources, from ‘The Scotsman’ last week, based on a Press Association report, the PA being amongst the best sourced and most credible and trusted news sources worldwide:
===========================================================
Gerry McCann ‘came close to Madeleine’s abductor’
JOHN BINGHAM - PA Chief Reporter in Praia da Luz
[EXTRACTS - verbatim - T.B.]
MADELEINE McCANN’s father believes he might have come within a few yards of his daughter’s abductor when he saw her for the last time, a friend said today.
Gerry McCann has become convinced an intruder was already hiding inside the family’s holiday flat when he left his meal to go back and check on his children on the night of Madeleine’s disappearance.
Madeleine, now four, went missing from the apartment in Praia da Luz on the Algarve on on the night of May 3 while her parents were dining with friends in a tapas restaurant nearby.
It was Mr McCann’s wife Kate who raised the alarm at about 10pm when she is said to have [well done PA for putting it like that! - T.B.] gone back to the apartment to check on the sleeping children and found Madeleine missing.
Mr McCann is believed to have gone to check on the children at around 9.05pm and saw them still asleep, including Madeleine. He spotted that the door to her room was ajar but thought nothing of it at the time, a friend said today.
But over the months since Madeleine’s disappearance he has become increasingly convinced that the intruder was already in the flat.
“He believes there was certainly something odd,” a friend said today. “The bedroom door was ajar when he got in and he thought: ‘That’s strange’. He went into the room, checked that Madeleine was still asleep in bed; she was and he came out, closed the door.
“Initially he thought that she might have got up and gone to the toilet or gone to get a drink or something but now he thinks that the abductor must have been in there hiding.”
The friend added: “He believes he came in, opened the door and didn’t have time to close it [as he went to hide before Gerry arrived].
“Once Gerry had left he would have known he had to come out very quickly and because Gerry went out through the patio door, went out through the window. He has no proof but that is what he believes.”
It is believed that when Mrs McCann went to check on the children a gust of wind in the room caused the door to slam behind her. It was then that she realised that the bedroom window was open and Madeleine was gone.
It emerged earlier today…[ SNIPPED]
Clarence Mitchell, their spokesman, said… [SNIPPED] “Kate and Gerry McCann have absolutely nothing to hide…” [SNIPPED]
A judge is now believed to have completed his review of a 4000-page dossier of evidence in the case from police, and handed the files back to prosecutors.
[SNIPPED]

i do agree its probably true
the anti mccann backup and links should be given as proof because its that good!.
i find it to hard to copy and paste newspaper getherings.

I’ve been told off by anonymouse for using links and sources!
September 28th, 2007 at 10:10 am
so the pjs think she s buried in spain
anyone know the dates they went to spain?

agreed batman
September 28th, 2007 at 10:04 am
#740 - I know what you mean. But there seems to be a clear pattern on this forum. Those who are in doubt about the McCanns provide sources and links to back up their arguments, whereas those who are unshakeably pro-McCann do not, but rather use emotion. Another clear observation is that the pro-McCann lobby seem to think they have a monopoly on being caring and non-judgemental!!

702 SPUDGUN says (September 28th, 2007 at 2:50 am)
=====================================================
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF SPUDGUN’S VIDEO ON MADELEINE MCCANN
=====================================================
These points (see below) from Spudgun’s post show why the suggestion that Madeleine was killed in a violent attack by one or other parent – more probably Kate McCann, is the most likley explanation so far which fits the known facts.
1) Madeleines blood was spilled in the apartment (Birmingham Forensics have confirmed it likely to be hers, to an unspecified percentage of accuracy).
2) Kate McCann didn’t deny that her blood was in the appartment, suggesting that Maddie might have had a nose bleed. However, she refused to answer why the alledged blood spatter pattern was not commensurate with a nose bleed, and was also unable to say who, if anyone, had cleaned it up. This evidence cannot be attributed to ‘lies, conjecture or slurs’, because the Portuguese media insist it forms part of the PJ’s evidence.
3) The PJ DID find blood residue. Only it was invisible to the naked eye because SOMEONE cleaned it up. And as a brusque, LAPD captain was heard to comment, “If there were no cleaners, and Maddie and the twins didn’t clean it, and you have TWO parents saying that they didn’t clean it, then you have something of a problem”.
4) There has been a credible leak that the PJ have recorded telephone conversations where Kate McCann has admitted to the accidental killing of Madeleine, that WILL also form part of the PJ’s evidence. (NOTE: The McCanns were so alarmed by this statement that they warned their relatives and friends about what to say when speaking on the telephone. Why, why, why if they are innocent?)
5) Birmingham Forensics have stated that the body fluids they have examined DO indicate ‘NON-TRANSFERABLE’ DNA, and is indicative of having been derived from a cadaver.
6) The ‘CADAVER’ dogs who scented positive in both the apartment, the car and on a number of Madeleines toys and Kate’s clothes.
=====================================
SOME FACTS IN THIS CASE - NOT ‘RUMOURS’
=====================================
Remember that the convoluted, unlikely and frankly incredible explanations of the potential problems in the case are indeed FACTS that we can analyse:
FACT 1: The McCanns explain the possibility of Madeleine’s blood flecks in room as a nose bleed
FACT 2: The McCanns explain the same blood flecks in the room by saying that Madeleine grazed her knee on boarding the plane and blood spots might have dropped on to her shoe and fallen off in the apartment
FACT 3: The McCanns explain the possible presenee of Madeleine’s blood flecks on the window-sill in the children’s room as the abductor having walked in through an unlokcked patio door and then climbed out WITH MADELEINE through a window about 3 to 4 feet above the ground
FACT 4: The McCanns said that the smell of death on Kate McCann’s clothing was because she was in close proximity to six corpes in the two weeks before their holiday
FACT 5: The McCanns say that the smell of death on Cuddle Cat was because she often took Cuddle Cat to work where she worked ob corpses
FACT 6: The McCanns said that if Madeleine’s DNA was found in the well of the car, it could be because of Madeleine’s unwashed pyjamas
FACT 7: The McCanns say that if there was the smell of death in the car, it was caused by rotting meat that had to be taken to the local Council tip in the car.
FACT 8: The McCanns say that the abductor may have been in the apartment hiding behind the door to the children’s bedroom when Gerry McCann (alegedly) went to check on the children at 9.05pm on 3 May. A plan of the apartment showing that the door to the childen’s room opens OUTWARDS has been publishd on te Net weeks ago and that plan has not been challenged by the McCanns.
FACT 9: The McCanns tried to explain away why they left Madeleine and the children alone all evening on May 3 because ‘they didn’t want to leave them with strangers’. Yet they were leaving the children with strangers at the kid’s club/creche all day long.
The McCanns and their team need not have come out with ANY of these unlikely tales. The FACT is that they did.
========================================================
THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO (A) SPUDGUN AND (B) TEAM MCCANN
========================================================
Finally, Spudgun, do not take too much notice of all the critics of your video. Yes, if you’d had the resources available to the McCanns, you could no doubt have done better. On the subject of music, many of the various ‘Find Madeleine’ videos on the Net use emotive and haunting tuens and lyrics. Absolutely nothing wrong with that; films, documentaries etc. invariably use music to emphasise a point. Let us just review the resources that have so far been made available to Team McCann:
a) A fund of well over £1 million - in a private company controlled by the McCann family, not a charity
b) A double glazing magnate paying Clarence Mitchell - reputed to be £75,000 a year (plus oncosts)
c) Gordon Brown prevailing on the PJ to allow Gerry McCann to make a statement about the sighting of a possible suspect
d) the Head of the Foreign Office’s Media Monitoring Unit was despatched to Praia da Luz within 3 weeks of Madeleine’s ‘disappearance’ and according to his own mouth spent ‘14 hours a day’ assisting the McCanns
e) The Pope
f) The keys of Father Pacheco’s church
g) A guarantee of £100,000 from Sir Richard Branson
h) Sir Philip Green’s private jet
i) At least four very high profile lawyers with international profiles, including two top Portuguese lawyers and, here in the U.K. Michael Caplan (forgot again, sorry. Michael Caplan *Q.C.*)
j) The services of the Control Risks Group of ex-S.A.S. men
k) A Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, whose duties are to enforce the rule of law in this country, as Spudgun saus, “coming on TV to ‘quell the media’, and insisting that everyone “concentrates on finding Maddy instead”.
Spudgun added this comment: “It’s pretty obvious that Gordon certainly hopes the abduction theory is greater believed amongst the electorate than any culpability on behalf of the McCanns”.
Yes, indeed.
Why did not our Home Secretary say: “It’s vital that we get to the truth about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann and I hope that the McCanns will feel able to answer all reasonable questions put to them by the PJ, whom I believe to be doing an excellent job in very difficult circumstances”.
Spudgun, with such few resources available to you, you have done a great job with the video. The massive resources of Team McCann may prevail for a time. But eventually, as the McCann’s gigantic smokescreen begins to clear, and is exposed for what it is, the truth – bit by bit - will be discerned.
suggestion Whilst I would not wish to even begin addressing all the points that this Video has raised and provoked, as its AUTHOR, I guess I should at least state my case without the evocotaive pics and smaltzy music.
I guess the Video IS somewhat biased and I have used some unflattering word associations with certain unflattering pictures, but ultimately, the questions that I have raised I believe DO deserve both consideration and answers. Did Kate and Gerry murder /accidentally kill Madeleine? I truly don’t know. Did they dispose of the body? I don’t know that either. None of us do because none of us were there on the night in question.
But the problem I have is this:
I am happy to agree that much of the evidence as reported in the Portuguese press, pretty much from since not long after May 3rd, still has not been conclusively proven, however, to stick with an abduction theory, you have to dismiss the following:……………
Madeleines blood was spilled in the apartment. (Birmingham Forensics have confirmed it likely to be hers, to an unspecified percentage of accuracy). Kate McCann didn’t deny that her blood was in the appartment, suggesting that Maddie might have had a nose bleed. However, she refused to answer why the alledged blood spatter pattern was not commensurate with a nose bleed, and was also unable to say who, if anyone, had cleaned it up. This evidence cannot be attributed to ‘lies, conjecture or slurs’, because the Portuguese media insist it forms part of the PJ’s evidence.
The PJ investigated an ‘abduction’, because two very credible parents stated that was what it was. Unfortunately, they made their examinations and their investigations with regards an abduction, and found NOT ONE SMIDGEON OF EVIDENCE to support it, except for the now discredited evidence of Jane Tanner, observing a ‘man carrying a child’. However. What they DID find was blood residue. Only it was invisible to the naked eye because SOMEONE cleaned it up. And as a brusque, LAPD Captain was heard to comment,
“If there were no cleaners, and Maddie and the twins didn’t clean it, and you have TWO parents saying that they didn’t clean it, then you have something of a problem”.
‘Aledgedly’ PJ have recorded telephone conversations where Kate McCann has admitted to the accidental killing of Madeleine, that WILL also form part of the PJ’s evidence. I also appreciate that there has been quite a lot of ‘Pro-McCann’ experts lining up to dismiss the DNA evidence found in the boot, stating that it doesn’t prove that the parents killed Maddy. And they’d be absolutely correct. Except, Birmingham Forensics have stated that it DOES indicate ‘NON-TRANSFERABLE’ DNA, and is indicative of having been derived from a cadaver. I am well aware that they have since, apparently lambasted the PJ for ‘misinterpreting’ some of the Birmingham evidence, but to now simply dismiss it out of hand or to suggest that it came from a sweaty sandal or a nappy is stretching it a bit. Birmingham Forensics ARE renowned as the best in the world. As are the ‘CADAVER’ dogs who scented positive in both the apartment, the car and on a number of Madeleines toys and Kate’s clothes. This will, of course, NOT be admissable as evidence, but given that these dogs were British and handled by British handlers, who know the accuracy and reliability of these animals, you would have to explain away them making innumerable mistakes for Maddies corpse not to have been in the areas where they indicated.
Had I have REALLY wanted to make a controversial, sensationalist Video, I would have included the so called ‘expert’ evidence, who all point to the McCanns play acting, to the psychologists who suggest they are acting guilty, or to the facial experts who have stated that Kate has persistently faked her ‘grief’. I also pay no heed to the ‘lip readers’ who have evidently amassed quite a lot of circumstantial evidence, based on observed comments made by the McCanns out of ‘earshot’.
I specifically stuck to what I thought were fairly non-contentional points. I am certainly not going to sit in judgement of ANYONE who leaves their children alone whilst they dine. But I am going to question why the McCanns stated that they did so because they didn’t want to leave them with strangers!!!; which is about as bizarre a response as could possibly be. I have always been struck with their strange disinterest in the inumerable “sightings” of Maddy, Of course, I’m sure the police would have said to them not to get their hopes up about these sightings. However, given that they never followed up a single ONE…especially the occasion in Belgium where the Police were confident and suspicious enough to dispatch a Forensics team to procure the drinking glass for DNA analysis. The McCanns, who spent so much time, enthusiasm, energy and sought such wide assistance in setting up a campaign, projects and website to FIND MADDY, having accumulated a HUGE fund to FIND MADDY, even NOW, speaking of their intentions of launching a NEW campaign to FIND MADDY…….. followed not ONE SINGLE ALLEDGED SIGHTING to find Maddy. And the reason for that, in my book, is that they KNEW it COULDN’T possibly have been Maddy.
We are ALL entitled to an opinion. Of course, NONE of the points above DO prove that the McCanns are guilty of ANYTHING. However, for them to be entirely INNOCENT, would mean that EVERY SINGLE REPORT and broadcast to emanate from the Portuguese media and Television is either FALSE, a lie, a misunderstanding or a complete fabrication. EVERY SINGLE ONE.
That every media outlet in this country has been labouring under some Editorial Policy, as dictated from on high is obvious. With Home Secretary Jacqui Smith coming on TV to ‘quell the media’, and to insist that everyone “concentrates on finding Maddy instead”, it’s pretty obvious that Gordon certainly hopes the abduction theory is greater believed amongst the Electorate than any culpability on behalf of the McCanns.
Guilty or Innocent? Who knows indeed. But there ARE questions that are NOT been answered. Because no-one has dared to ask.
Thank you for your kind comments, and even for those that were NOT kind. And finally, I am MOST aware that the video in itself is crap. It was bodged together pretty quickly, is technically and artistically devoid of any merit, and is comprised of snatched images and plagiarised music. But, I would have to respectfully suggest, it has had the most desired effect………. because it has inflamed and courted controversy and made people think. Rather that than produce a masterpiece that gets totally ignored.

Moderation: Can you please explain where you get all your knowledge and information? You quickly respond to posts - and if they are not in agreement with your own view - you dismiss them as being mere opinions or rubbish them as based on inaccurate newspaper articles. It seems to me you are guilty of exactly what you criticise in others.
But obviously if you have some inside information that no one else is privvy to this might be different. In that case can you please declare that.
