Police investigating Madeleine disappearance
to stage reconstruction |
|
|
|
PORTUGUESE police are set to stage a
reconstruction of the events surrounding
Madeleine McCann’s disappearance later this
month, it emerged yesterday.
The planned reconstruction was rumoured to have been shelved
after
Gerry and Kate McCann said
they doubted it would help solve the mystery.
But their Portuguese lawyer
Rogerio Alves
revealed
yesterday there were “strong indications” it will go ahead
after all in the next fortnight.
Alves, speaking as he attended a lecture in Faro, said: “We
have little faith in the benefit of this step and how it can
help to discover what happened to Madeleine. But there are
strong indications it will go ahead.”
His comments coincided with the decision of a judge in
charge of the Madeleine McCann probe to extend the judicial
secrecy surrounding the investigation for a further three
months. The move means the McCanns will remain arguidos or
official suspects until at least August 15.
The decision also affects third suspect
Robert Murat’s
hopes of seeing secret police
files so he can mount a proper defence against claims he is
involved in Madeleine’s disappearance.
It is not clear whether the McCanns and the
Tapas Nine
will fly to Portugal to take part — or if actors will play
their roles.
Alves, one of two Portuguese lawyers the McCanns have hired,
insisted the couple’s only concern was the benefit that
could be gained from a reconstruction a year after the
event.
Speaking about the extension of the period of judicial
secrecy surrounding the probe, he added: “What the judicial
secrecy means in this case is that a mother and father are
forbidden access to the knowledge they would like to have
about what the police are doing to discover something
fundamental for them — what happened to their daughter.”
