A
PORTUGUESE police union boss has branded the McCanns’
spokesman a LIAR.
Carlos
Anjos said of Clarence Mitchell: “He lies with as many teeth as he
has in his mouth.”
The president of Portugal’s
Police Federation accused the former BBC man of leaking police statements
Kate and Gerry made within hours of Maddie disappearing last May.
These were aired on Spanish TV
last week.
Anjos
said the aim was to give the McCanns an excuse
not to attend a reconstruction.

Mr Mitchell, 46, said: “It is
categorically untrue that I leaked them. There was absolutely no benefit for
us to do that.”
Nacho Abad, the Spanish
journalist who obtained the statements, said: “Clarence Mitchell was not the
source. The family did not leak it.”
