'Competing British police forces' harmed Madeleine McCann search

The investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann was hampered because British police forces competed against one another, according to the author of a secret Home Office report.

Relations with Portuguese authorities were damaged as UK agencies clamoured to get involved in the high-profile case, leading to warnings that Britain should not act as a "colonial power".

Madeleine McCann hunt slowed by Portuguese court chaos

SCOTLAND Yard’s probe into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann is being held up because of chaos in the Portuguese legal *system, the Sunday Express has learned.

A legal official in Portugal said: “The system is a mess, which is causing a huge political row between the right-of-centre government and the socialist opposition. “This all means that Maddie is taking a low priority because all the effort is going on keeping the courts running. There is also a new prosecutor in Portimao on the Algarve who is having to be fully briefed on scores of cases, including Madeleine’s, and that all takes time."

Also from link ^^

"The hold-up is the latest problem to affect the work to find the youngster who, then aged three, vanished from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz on the Algarve in May 2007.

Last week details emerged about a Home Office report which showed British police forces helping with the search for Madeleine hampered the Portuguese investigation.



So many UK agencies were keen to be seen to be helping, it created a “sense of chaos and competition”.

It's not clear how good a lead this is in Madeleine's case (he may just have been arrested because he fled the country while on licence after one of his many convictions), as further down they say Scotland Yard police are returning to Portugal soon to re-interview three of the seven suspects they saw earlier in the year.

Also, a new prosecutor has been appointed to lead on the case in Portugal (Ines Sequeira) and

Authorities are expected to interview a person of interest in the disappearance of English girl Madeleine McCann for a second time, according to reports from Portuguese media that were confirmed Tuesday by British news outlets, including the BBC and ITV News. Robert Murat was a suspect in the girl’s disappearance from a Portuguese resort town in 2007, but Portuguese authorities later cleared him.

Murat and his wife, Michaela Walczuk, are among 11 people to be questioned by British authorities, who are traveling to Portugal to conduct the interviews, the BBC reported. Four of the 11 people are persons of interest, according to ITV News, which reported that “legal difficulties” may hold up plans to hold the interviews next week.

A British expat gardener has been questioned, and talks to the Mirror saying he was in a bar at the time. He's one of those being re-questioned having been interviewed extensively in 2007.

Also quoted as saying

“Why are they spending all this money? People go missing all the time.

“It’s a long time ago. They’ll never find her. I’ve racked my brains. They need to leave it now.”
