I begin with this extract from the PJ Files:
Officers: Carlos L. and Joao F., Inspectors.
Today, as ordered, we went to the city of Lagos to determine the various residences used and/or owned by R[obert] Murat or his family members.
--- With the intention of locating Quinta do Sto. Phunurius, it was possible to verify that it was in Rua D. Joao III in Ameijeira-Lagos, and in conversation with several residents it was possible to determine that it was a Quinta [farm estate] owned by an English citizen and managed by a North American man who lives at Travessa do Forno in Lagos, the people also having stated that the Quinta is used for "parties" of a sexual nature.
-------
The villa mentioned, Quinta do Sto. Phunurius, was and maybe still is owned by one Mark Leighton - who also for some reason also goes under the name 'Leighton Crook'.
Thus we know that Mark Leighton’s place, Quinta do Sto. Phunurius, was - to quote the PJ report, - one of “various residences used and/or owned by R[obert] Murat or his family members”.
MORE ABOUT MARK LEIGHTON
All other references to Mark Leighton/Leighton Crook and his alleged activities in this article have been removed at the request of Mr Leighton - Mod
Jean Miranda has staged various exhibitions at the Quinta do Sto. Phunurius villa over the years.
In turn, Jean Miranda is friends with a man called Jorge Rocha.
JORGE ROCHA
There was also a Jorge Rocha whom the PJ questioned about Polish visitor to Praia da Luz, Wojchiech Krokowksi, the man alleged by Nuno Lourenco to have twice tried to kidnap his four-year-old daughter in Sagres on Sunday 29 April. In the case of both ‘Jorge Rocha’s, they each are restaurant owners in the area, so it may reasonably be assumed to be the same individual.
His statement in the PJ files is here:

Jorge Alberto Bandara Rocha
Date/Time: 2007/05/06 23H00 (6 May)
Businessman - Portuguese
- Is the proprietor of Refugio, a restaurant situated in Burgau, for about one year;
- The witness states that on [Tuesday] May 1, 2007, day off, at around 16H00, a couple appeared motivated by adverts in a block of apartments in 'Sol e Mar' in Burgau, in order to reserve a dinner table. The couple reserved the table closest to the door for 19H15;
- At that time the couple appeared and occupied said table;
- Almost immediately, the women began to photograph the interior of the restaurant without asking for permission. This situation captured the attention of the witness because his clients tend to be of a 'posher class' and are more discreet in their conduct. This couple’s clothing was of a vulgar fashion;
- The woman proceeded to photograph everything, people and objects for around 10 minutes. When she stopped photographing, the witness brought her a menu. They began to speak English, regarding fishes and as she could not identity the tamboril (a fish) she asked the witness if he knew the name in German. He responded ‘No’, that he did not. At the next table, there sat a German couple who gave the woman the name of the tamboril fish in German;
- From that sequence of events, the witness presumes that the client was not German, asked her nationally, to which she replied, Polish;
- Meanwhile, the client ordered an entrée and drinks (half a bottle of red wine of Monte Velho) and a bottle of [still] water;
- Witness adds that while he served the drinks, the woman took many pictures of the witness, without asking his permission. The witness, bothered by the situation, in an ironic form, told her that in order to continue taking pictures, she would have to pay after which she stopped;
- This woman took her pictures with a digital camera, of small dimensions, but he did not catch the brand or characteristics;
- He served her entrée: Mexilhao a Provencal and 'Alabote with caper sauce' to the male who devoured the entrees within 5 minutes. The woman took a bit longer and did not eat everything. They did not have desert and did not have coffee;
- The individual asked for the bill and paid cash. After, and hurriedly, the couple left the restaurant without saying goodbye to parts unknown;
- He noticed that they left on foot. They did not go by car. If they had a car it must have been parked well away from the restaurant;
- He describes the woman as Caucasian, around 32/33 years of age, blonde and in a pony-tail with clips. He believed it was not combed often. She also had dark eyes and was of normal height. She had a slim face and was around 170 cm tall (5’ 7”) and slim. She was wearing a printed beige dress and a bordeaux coloured jacket. She also wore trousers but he did not record the details. He did not look to her shoes;
- The male, also Caucasian, was around 35 years, about 180cm (5’ 11”) in height, dark hair combed to the back, slim face, dark eyes, rectangular glasses with transparent lenses in black frame. He was wearing a black shirt and a black jacket. His trousers were also black. He does not remember other details of his clothing;
- He had the sense that the couple were people with money and of culture;
- Confronted with a photograph in the file, the witness identified the two people who could be found behind the individual, as the couple who ate in his restaurant on May 01, 2007;
- States that the couple did not return to the restaurant after that time and he did not see them again;
- States that the couple did not comment on their visit to Portugal. States that they only spoke of fish. Nothing more. During drinks, he saw the couple speaking to other clients;
- States that the individual, when he reserved, did so in the book and the witness offered to make a page for authorities.

The Quinta do Sto. Phunurius and The Rising Cock
The Quinta do Sto. Phunurius is run by a Portuguese-American man, originally from Boston. He also owns the nearby ‘Rising Cock’ [sic] hostel, which is very popular with young backpackers.
(from Google search)The Rising Cock Hostel Lagos Portugal
www.risingcock.com/
“www.risingcock.com
A party hostel with a family character located in the beach town of Lagos, Portugal. We don't sell beds, we sell an experience. Join us for the kinda fun you won't…”
As well as homosexuality featuring large in the life of the Quinta, so do the creative arts.

At this point it is of interest to note that the man who appointed Clarence Mitchell to be the McCanns’ spokesman, Howell James, on 6 May 2007 according to a Freedom of Information Act request, was once the partner of homosexual Brazilian dancer Reinaldo Avila da Silva, the man who is now Peter Mandelson’s long-term partner. It was once reported he’d enrolled a witch doctor to put a hex on his partner’s political enemies in a ceremony involving the slaughter of a live chicken. In February 2015 the Daily Mail reported that Reinaldo Avila da Silva had declared himself as an ‘osteopath’ by profession on his ‘LinkedIn’ page, a claim which drew a retort from the General Osteopathic Council that he was not on their register and was thereby was committing a criminal offence by describing himself as am osteopath. Mandelson and Reinaldo own an £8 million mansion in north London and rent a four-bedroomed cottage on the Rothschilds’ estate in Wiltshire – homosexuals with contacts at the very highest levels: LINK: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2964532/SEBASTIAN-SHAKESPEARE-Mandy-mystery-Brazilian-partner-Reinaldo-osteopath.html#ixzz3rMUY79wa
Howell James was a former BBC journalist and was a much sought-after ‘Special Adviser to both Conservative Prime Minister John Major and Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair for two decades. John Major used to holiday with the Symingtons, the family who co-owned the Ocean Club at the time of Madeleine's disappearance - and to whom Robert Murat and his father were related. Murat’s father and grandfather were in regular contact with the Symington family given their respective interests in the lucrative port and wine trade. The Symington family still enjoy special diplomatic privileges in Portugal today.
But to return to Robert Murat, we already know these things about him:
He…
1 admitted to regularly visiting the ‘Red Cloud’ ‘hard porn’ pornographic website
2 had encrypted material on his website and couldn’t explain how it got there
3 was accused by one witness of having child sex abuse images on his computer
4 was accused by another witness, businessman Carlos Manuel Mateus Costa, of attempted sexual intercourse with both cats and dogs in his teenage years. He added that Murat “had a strange personality, staying away from people, and not wanting to engage. He had somewhat of a violent attitude...when he went to the beach with Robert, he [Robert] would stay away from the rest of the group and not say a word to anyone the whole day….he also assorted a female cousin of his…These acts were hidden by Robert's mother, who protected him and who never punished him… He is also someone with a sadistic, violent and deviant sexual personality personality…He also was violent with his mother when he was reprimanded and would react by kicking her. Robert received psychiatric treatment whilst in the U.K.”
From the PJ files, we only get a glimpse of what relationship Murat had with Mark Leighton.
