Am I the only one to find tabloid reports of the hopes and dreams of defence lawyers a tad dis-ingenious.

Snip
CB is not currently on trial as a suspect in the MM case and is instead facing charges in Braunschweig Regional Court for three rapes and two cases of sexual abuse of minors.
...
Prosecutors have insisted the Met cop should only be questioned about the current charges, which do not include the McCann case.

Given that MM's case is an active one in the United Kingdom - Portugal - and Germany no serving or retired police officer can be prevailed upon to divulge current information prejudicial the MM investigation.
Good try! but a loser
My opinion

The credibility of witness HeB is in question, if he told OG "a" then told the court "b" then of course the defence want to highlight this, reasonable doubt is the bench mark.The defence are doing what they are paid to do, all opinion.The prosecution might object but it's down to the court which line the questioning will take.

This is not about the Madeleine McCann case, but about the credibility of HeB and MS
Which could be extremely important for the future if CB is charged in the Madeleine McCann case

From the OP link by JB1510.

DC Mark Draycott, who has worked on Operation Grange since 2011, is expected to answer questions next week.

In particular, he was the first policeman to officially interview witness Helge Busching, who told him about Brueckner’s sex crimes in Greece in 2018.
 
The self made hidden compartments are suspicious and it would be foolish not to check for DNA from a convicted paedophile/ filming rapist. It could however be for smuggling drugs. Worth inspecting though.

wouldn’t this all have happened long ago?
 
When were the pictures taken in the OP article ? JC is claiming copy right ?
 
So just for a bit of confusion because confusion is good, JC with RP claimed a van like the one pictured changes to CBs van.All in a matter of months.

Transparently CB's defence team have made no secret of their absolute desperation to find out what is happening in the very active MM investigation.

Quite extraordinary indeed when their client is presently facing five serious charges entirely unrelated to MM's case in which no charges have been made.

'We have been asking for files on the case for years but have seen nothing so let's see what they have, they will have to come to court and talk under oath about what they know.'

CB doesn't have a defence team as regards the MM case as he has not been charged with anything to do with MM.
If he is ever charged, an increasingly unlikely event IMO, he may well have totally different lawyers
