Two arrested......it' is pathetic!!! can someone copy and paste , it didn't work for me....TA.

WOW. I just tried again and the Article has been whoosh clunked.  it showed 2 Policemen holding by the scruff of the neck a man and a woman charged with trying to obtain money from the McCanns., years ago. Another 2 eliminated from Police enquiries. , that's 7 out of 38 , but Cameron is oblivious to all of this.  

yes its definitely been whooshed, and they say the PJ messed up. At least the Keystone cops were entertaining. Were these some of the leads Fund raiser in chief and Deadwood were referring to. You really cant make it up.

Theres a similar story here..

ouch. It came up with a page "Not Found". Then a HUGE pop up advert for Specsavers. Bloody cheek.  

I suspect the McCanns have ordered this.....shame, I was just beginning to think the Press were turning. Could be SY though because someone is obviously leaking info on the 38 suspects. I thought at the time in the photo I saw that the police looked aggressive, holding the culprits by the scruff of their necks, hardly SY style, another Newspaper extracting the urine.

I found this while searching mccannfiles for the PJ Final Report....still couldn't find the 4 assumptions they made about Madeleine, where's that NBY, she is great at finding stuff, as is kathybelle.


The Photos are on the link but when I copied and pasted they are not there!! 


Madeleine McCann 'fraud' couple arrested at hideout in Portugal Daily Mirror

They allegedly tried to swindle Gerry and Kate by attempting to pocket £2.5million reward for information on Madeleine's whereabouts




A couple accused of trying to scam Madeleine McCann's parents after she went missing have been arrested at a hideout in Portugal.

Danilo Chemello and Aurora Pereira Vaz were first held in southern Spain in 2007, after they allegedly tried to swindle Gerry and Kate McCann by attempting to pocket a £2.5million reward for information on Madeleine's whereabouts.

They were quizzed two months after she went missing, but the case never went to trial.

They then moved to the Algarve, despite Italian millionaire Chemello being wanted by the authorities in France.

The couple, who have a colourful criminal past including child abuse, have now been tracked down at a rented house in the resort of Estoril near Lisbon.

They have been living there since January under false identities with two teenagers.

It was not clear yesterday what the pair had been held on suspicion of, but police had three ­European arrest warrants.




The news came days after Scotland Yard announced it was opening a formal investigation into Madeleine's disappearance.

Portuguese authorities dropped their investigation in 2008, but Scotland Yard started a review in May 2011.

This week officers revealed they had ­uncovered a number of fresh leads involving 38 suspects from five European countries, including 12 Britons.

The Met said it believed there was a chance Madeleine could still be alive.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood, leading the inquiry, said: "The review has given us new thinking, new theories, new evidence, new witnesses."

The Chemello and Vaz case is not linked to the British investigation. Former construction tycoon Chemello, 67, has been held in jail and is set to be extradited to France shortly. Vaz, who is Portuguese, is expected to be kept where she is.

A French court sentenced the pair to 18 months in jail for making fake birth records when they set up home on the Algarve.

They failed to turn up in court and an arrest warrant was issued.

The teenage children living with Vaz, 60, and Chemello in Portugal were understood to be her two children.

They have been taken to a children's home.

The couple have a string of convictions and were jailed for 10 months for child abuse for feeding Chemello’s stepdaughter dog food and locking her in a bedroom with her hands and legs tied with tape.

Chemello was also wanted for trying to blackmail the judge who jailed them.



He was sentenced to three years in prison in his absence after reportedly hiring a private detective to investigate the female judge's private life and then using the information to blackmail her.

Italian authorities also accused the couple of kneecapping Vaz's husband Alberto Tana during a bitter custody battle over her daughter in Rome in 1996.

Although they were cleared of ordering the gun attack, both Chemello and Vaz were handed 16-month prison sentences for conspiracy to pervert the course of justice and firearms offences.

Specialist anti-kidnap police stormed the couple's house in Sotogrande, Spain, in June 2007 to arrest them over their alleged bid to cheat the devastated McCanns, of Rothley, Leicestershire.

It was not clear yesterday whether the case against them had been dropped or had been put on hold while the other cases against them were dealt with first.

Madeleine was almost four when she disappeared from her family's holiday apartment in the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz in May 2007.
