The ex–inspector of the Madeleine McCann case from the Polícia Judiciária, Gonçalo Amaral, returned this Thursday to point his finger at the Portuguese government, after revelations from WikiLeaks last week that told that it was the British police itself that found evidence to incriminate the McCann couple for the disappearance of their daughter, on the night of 3rd May 2007, in Praia da Luz, Algarve.

According to what Gonçalo Amaral said to the Efe agency,

Portugal “has a weak government faced with the English ‘friends’, which is servile and submissive, and that the archiving of the investigation into the mysterious disappearance of Madeleine McCann constitutes a shame for our country and for the Portuguese legal system”.

The ex – inspector, who has already told Correio da Manhã that the British police have not told everything to the PJ, is convinced that London pressured Lisbon to remove him from his post in order to avoid accusations against Gerry and Kate McCann.

Gonçalo Amaral is confident that the case will be completely cleared up, but that it is necessary to re-iniate the police investigation and re-open the case.

“Madeleine McCann deserves justice. Her probable death and mysterious disappearance cannot depend only on political will”, he said.
