Det vore bra om du kan citera ingressen i artikeln eller åtminstone återge rubriken, så vi vet vad det handlar om.
Synnerligen märkligt. Är det ett vanligt tillvägagångssätt i Storbritannien att lämna ut bevismaterial? Har inte portugisisk polis något att säga? Eller handlar det egentligen om en nedlagd förundersökning som de även i Sverige skulle ha all rätt att ta del av? Artikelförfattaren får det att låta som att det är själva bevismaterialet, så som t ex DNA, som utlämnas.
Hej Thuesday!
Jag trodde som du att paret skulle få tillgång till allt material som polisen har. Tydligen är det så när någon är "arguido" att de efter en tid har rätt att få veta varför stämpeln inte lyfts bort. Men efter att ha läst denna artikel från mccannfiles känns det lite lugnare. De får se 81 dokument utav 10 000-tals och de får INTE ta del av några bevis polisen har emot dem..
POLICE yesterday agreed to show Madeleine McCann's parents 81 witness statements.
The couple's detectives will study the confidential documents and re-interview the witnesses.
And High Court Judge Mrs Justice Hogg urged whoever might be holding the "innocent little girl" to give her back. Her GP mum Kate and heart consultant dad Gerry, both 40, had threatened to take Leicestershire Police to court to gain access to the files.
But the force – heading the investigation in the UK – caved in before the hearing.
Detectives agreed to show the McCanns 81 of 11,000 documents gathered in the days after Madeleine, then aged three, vanished from an apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, on May 3 last year.
They include details of witnesses who saw "suspicious" people.
The McCanns, who are still suspects, will not be allowed to see evidence relating to themselves or seven Brit friends they dined with in a tapas bar when Madeleine disappeared.
At the court in London, the judge said: "There is, of course, one person who knows what has happened to Madeleine and where she may be found.
"I ponder about that person – whether that person has a heart and might understand what it must be like for Madeleine to have been taken and secreted from her parents and siblings and those she loved and felt secure with.
"I entreat that person, whoever they may be, to show mercy and compassion and come forward now and tell us where Madeleine is to be found."
Last night the McCanns' spokesman Clarence Mitchell said the couple – who are on holiday and were not at the hearing – were "very pleased" with the Brit police's decision.
He added Kate and Gerry would "draw great strength" from Mrs Justice Hogg's supportive comments.’
