TAPAS 7 to be interviewed by SY Review Team - Sunday Express. Is something happening at last? Sunday10

It says the Scotland Yard Review Team are 'poised to interview' the Tapas 7.

I wonder if the interviews will start off like this:

"Jane Tanner, Rachael Mamphilly, Fiona Payne, David Payne, Matthew Oldfield and Russell O'Brien, I am arresting you all on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence. Now, into that van please..."

Thanks Tony!

Or perhaps ---

" As all the world knows, Madeleine McCann was abducted from her apartment which was within sight and earshot of her parents. Can you be bothered to add anything to any of the different, contradictory, but all totally accurate stories you have variously told ?
"No ?
Oh well never mind. Please collect your travelling expenses from the front desk as you leave.
Have a nice day."

I'm in South Africa and just read the paper online...have I missed something? there is no mention of Tapas 7 and it's a weird headline...who knows Tapas 7? unless you read up on Madeleine.

That is so funny Tony but it is what should be said. Not sure about the last sentence though TAPAS 7 to be interviewed by SY Review Team - Sunday Express. Is something happening at last? 50899

The Sunday Express report begins thus:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

By James Murray

INVESTIGATIONS EDITOR

Scotland Yard detectives are poised to interview the so-called Tapas Seven as their inquiry into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann steps up a gear.

The friends of Kate and Gerry McCann, who accompanied them on their holiday to Portugal about five years ago, are expecting interview requests as soon as officers feel they could assist the investigation.

So far, the Yard's Maddie Squad has been concentrating on analysing every scrap of evidence in the case from files supplied by Leicestershire Police, Portuguese detectives and Metodo 3, the Barcelona-based private investigators hired by the McCanns.

Officers have flown to Portugal three times and visited Spain twice. With much....

Aquila the article won't be on the net until after midnight at least. the first paper editions will be available at certain paper stalls to buy from about now if anyone wants to go out in the snow! Apparently they have been talking about it on Sky - front page review. The full front page review programme is at 11.30 UK time...we'll know more then I suspect

Thanks, I've just switched the tv on to Sky News.

Be interesting if any of the other papers report the same thing. It needs the whole of them to report on it

I don't like this sentence :

The friends of Kate and Gerry McCann, who accompanied them on their holiday to Portugal about five years ago, are expecting interview requests as soon as officers feel they could assist the investigation.

Does this mean they haven't been asked yet?

by **Tony Bennett** 04.02.12 22:54

I was wondering if we could assist the Scotland Yard Review Team by suggesting a few questions that maybe their inept colleagues at Leicestershire Police neglected to ask them last time round in the 2008 rogatories.

Here's one or two for starters:

++++++++++++++++=

1. Ms Tanner, I'd like to go over what you saw from the police van with the two-way windows on Sunday 13 May. You originally said that on 3 may at around 9.15pm you saw a bloke in a dark jacket and mustard chinos, dark hair and not wearing glasses, about 5' 9", walking purposefully. But when you saw Murat walk past the police van, you were adamant that that was who you had seen 10 days earlier. Murat was not at all like the description you gave police originally, was he? So why did you pick him out?

2. Dr Oldfield, could we go over your visit to the McCanns' apartment at 9.30pm on 3 May once again please. Which of the versions you've previously given of this event is the true one?

3. Dr O'Brien, when and where exactly did Jane Tanner tell you that she had seen a man carrying a child? Who was with you in the room when you were writing down two different timelines on Madeleine's Activity Sticker Book?

4. Dr Payne, Dr Kate McCann says that at about 6.30pm on Thursday 3 May you knocked on their front door, and that she was in the shower. She says she came to the door in a towel and says that about 30 seconds later, you left without entering their flat. Your account is rather different, isn't it? What do you say happened on that occasion?

I am sure other folk can think of a few more.

This is what I felt too. No they haven't been asked yet on reading this, and it is pre emptying what might happen. But its good at least one of the papers is saying something positive and right and not just printing copy and paste jobs supplied by the mccann team

Why do all your descriptions of the man you saw never have this man wearing glasses? Murat has bad eyesight and always wears glasses so how can this be him?

I have a lot of respect for you guys sticking to your guns and fighting for the truth. Do not give up. Justice will be served in the end. Always stick with the evidence. We are on exactly the same path in Jersey. Civilians doing the investigative work and forcing the truth to the surface. The Mcann case is incredible and I wish I had more time to follow it. I have read one of Tony's books and I keep it close nothing like a dose of evidence to get you through a hard day.

Keep at it - the truth is out - its just that not everybody knows it yet

It's great that the Tapas 7 are under the spotlight again, but why do I get the sinking feeling that nothing will come of it? No doubt the shadowy forces 'behind the scenes' who have played such a large part in the protection of those who should have been called to account in this case will once again ensure that the matter will fade quietly away.

by jd 04.02.12 23:56

Well Sky front page review have totally ignored it! and just a sarcastic comment against the Express from the presenter....well theres a surprise

by maebee 05.02.12 0:10

Trying not to be too hopeful here but I AM liking the phraseology of the headline in the Express. "Yard to call in Tapas 7" has a certain connotation to it. This is a bit of a bolt out of of the blue, which I would have expected to read as "SY to speak to the friends of the McCanns". This month is looking very interesting indeed.

Hopefully they will be following up with Pats search next week

Well I'm as cynical as they come but even my hopes are raised. I feel a change and yes the wording of the headline struck me as a bit 'harsh'. Sensational to say the least.

n some cases the Yard officers have asked for documents to be retranslated from Portuguese to English so that they are absolutely sure of what was said and meant.

My favourite bit....obviously retranslating English to English david paynes to made some sort of sense of what he is saying! On a serious note, they see clearly like anyone else who has read them the total inconsistencies and contradictions

The McCanns’ spokesman Clarence Mitchell said they and their friends would do everything to assist attempts to discover what happened to Madeleine.

Like before when they refused to answer the 48 questions, like when they said they would take a lie detector test then backed out, like they said they would stay in PDL till Maddie was found but came back to the UK...Oh ok then we believe you

I wonder if this might be a distraction ploy by CM to create a buzz about something other than Pat Brown?

Possibly but then the general public are unaware of Pats trip, they haven't a clue about it and the report certainly is not going to distract us who know what is really happening
