GA: Something has to be left out. JP: Why? GA: I’m a trained jurist, I’m a jurist, and we don’t say everything, do we. It may be for a second edition of the book, it may be for certain explanations that someone wishes, therefore… it’s my own secret. JP: It’s your own secret. So there is a secret? You haven’t told everything? GA: No, but it’s details, anyway. |

Re:Information Not Released Date Posted:03/05/2011 3:33 PMCopy HTML JP: So your opinion is that an accidental death took place in that apartment.
GA: It is not my opinion. It’s the opinion of the investigation. This has to be made very clear. I have repeated this several times but it’s important. JP: You are absolutely right, so according to the investigation… GA: According to the investigation that was composed of English, Portuguese investigators… JP: Exactly. The little girl died in that apartment? GA: The little girl died in that apartment. JP: On the evening of the 3rd of May. GA: And we reached that conclusion with the data that we have. |

Re:Information Not Released Date Posted:03/05/2011 3:38 PMCopy HTML PR: A while ago, you mentioned an English policeman, a great expert, I suppose you were referring to Mark Harrison who is one of the two or three best British policemen in terms of investigating complex crimes. He was here, he spent a week in Praia da Luz, he rummaged through Praia da Luz, he walked everywhere, the saw the process upside down, he read the entire process, and then he wrote a report in which he concludes that the most likely hypothesis is the child’s death, and if I’m correct, he proposes the dogs’ coming, right?
GA: Exactly. PR: Was he the policeman who also retired, a reference that you made during a press conference? That there was an English policeman who retired. GA: No. PR: Was there an English policeman who also retired? GA: The English policeman who retired is from the Leicester police. Now the reasons I would prefer not to talk about him at the moment. As a matter of fact I’d like to talk to him personally and I don’t want him to be pressured so I would reserve myself the right not to comment any further. PR: Just to make this very clear, is that English policeman, Mark Harrison… GA: No, no, no. PR: … who comes here, writes a report, no, I’m not talking about the retirement issue, I’m just saying that he came here, that he is an expert in complex crime, one of the most prestigious from the English police, he walks the streets of Praia da Luz from one end to another, he measures, routes, timings, he analyses the process and after that he writes a report in his quality as one of the finest English experts, where he writes black on white that the most likely possibility is that the child died in the apartment, is that correct? GA: Correct. PR: That is what marks the turn in the investigations. GA: Correct. PR: And then the famous dogs arrive… GA: Yes, to detect cadaver and human blood odour. JP: So you don’t want to tell why your colleague retired. He has his own reasons. But you are aware that all of this thickens the public’s perception of a Machiavellian conspiracy theory. I understand your position, maybe at the moment you don’t want to say more or you can’t, it’s a fact that your book has brought us something more but we still fail to understand everything. Mainly, possibly the macro-structure that surrounds all of this. |
