NO VIOLATION BY PORTUGAL


Just a quick note:

The McCanns can request referral to Grand Chamber and they have 3 months to do it, but in our opinion, it’s unlikely to be granted.


Update on Oct 18, 2022


It seems the McCanns filed an "appeal" to prolong the process.

Although it's our opinion that that it will not be admitted, in case it is this could delay matters for another 3 years, if we are interpreting this correctly:

A decision on admissibility comes first, then a possible wait of 3 years if application is admitted.

That would allow for OG to continue so that FOIs can be denied on the basis they could interfere with an ongoing investigation.

McCann ECHR Decision - September 20, 2022

 







Note how the Daily Mail gives these news.

By reading the link, one is lead to believe the McCanns won:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11215227/Madeleine-McCanns-parents-finally-Tuesday-won-14-YEAR-libel-battle.html

Or basically: “Madeleine McCann parents finally Tuesday won 14 YEAR libel battle”

One, on reading this, would be certain that the McCanns won, Portugal (not Amaral) has lost and that it was all about libel!

It doesn’t say which Tuesday and it doesn’t say “if they have won”. It just says, WON, past tense. On a Tuesday, misleading readers into thinking it was last Tuesday.

But opening up the article, this is what Nick Pisa has to say:

EXCLUSIVE: Madeleine McCann’s parents will finally find out on Tuesday if they have won 14-YEAR libel battle against cop who suggested they were to blame for the girl’s disappearance

- A 2008 book suggested the McCanns were responsible for the disappearance

- The Portuguese officer was taken off the investigation after a 27-year career

- The McCanns fought back against the initial ruling on an appeal in Portugal

“Will finally find out on Tuesday if they have won”



British Journalism at its best. And isn’t the Daily Mail the British paper with the largest readership?
