McCanns silence the Book


In today's Daily Express there is a very small article that reports the McCanns successful application for an Injunction to have the Book "The Truth of the Lies" removed from the Bookshelves of European retailers. This is the book written by Gonzales Amaral, the Senior Detective initially acting for the Portuguese Police in the case of the missing Madeleine McCann. A TV Documentary suffered the same fate.

330,000 copies have been sold and considering that it is only available in Portuguese it has proved very popular. (We have a copy in Portuguese if anyone wants to have a shuftie.)

The McCanns are reported as saying, "Mr Amaral's central thesis has no evidence whatsoever to support it." Excusing the bad grammar, we wonder how the expertise of a Senior Detective and his team can be less reliable than that of two professional adults who chose to leave their three very young children unattended whilst they went out on an evening of drink and food.
