The Portuguese police should be investigated by the European Court of Human Rights

Portugal: A tradition of paedophilia, hard core perversion, criminality and corruption, at the highest level of government and society.

When Pina "Pia" Manique founded Casa Pia in 1780 after the great earthquake of 1755 in Portugal, she did not foresee that her humanitarian social endeavour would become a symbol of national perversion and paedophilia in contemporary Portuguese society. For more than three centuries thousands of young boys and girls grew up at Casa Pia and became to be known as "casapianos." Casa Pia is the largest educational institution in Portugal dedicated to help youngsters in risk of social exclusion, or without parental support. The institution is made up of ten schools with an enrolment of approximately 4700 young students. In addition to standard schooling, Casa Pia also provides boarding for children in need and it strives to enable them to become healthy and successful members of society by developing their intellectual, manual abilities, and physical traits in a positive environment promoting spiritual, moral, and religious values. Casa Pia is proud to have had amongst its student’s famous personalities, writers, artists, journalists, outstanding government officials, and others.

The paedophilia scandal

Although reports of sexual abuse against children in Portugal go back to before 1970 while the Estado Novo (New State) authoritarian regime was still in power, it was around that time period the paedophile activity in Portuguese society started to be known more than before. The paedophilia scandal at Casa Pia had a major effect in helping to raise public awareness on the general sexual abuse of children. The number of violent rape and other sexual abuses against children soared after the scandal was revealed and made public. Different reports following journalist investigations, showed evidence pointing directly at wealthy and influential high society paedophile members, who targeted children at Casa Pia under the care and responsibility by officials. The paedophile activities lasted for at least 30 years and were covered up by successive governments loyal to the corrupt rich and powerful. Since the scandal erupted, the Ministry of Labour and Social Security confirmed that hundreds of innocent children from Casa Pia were sexually abused at private homes, where they had been taken with the complicity by employees responsible for the security and care of the children. Many children victims of the perversion were either deaf or mute. Once the scandal was made public, Teresa Costa Macedo, a former Secretary of State revealed that she knew about the sexual abuse of children throughout the 1970s and 1980s, by very wealthy and influential people in Portuguese society. According to her own statements, she told Antonio Ramalho Eanes, President of Portugal from 1976-1986, about the criminal activity but he refused to act despite the overwhelming evidence. After the arrest of Carlos Silvino ("Bibi") for his participation in the criminal activity while he was a caretaker at Casa Pia, Mrs. Macedo said that "he was only an instrument element in a huge paedophile network that involved important people in the judiciary, the police, well known politicians, and a host of government members at different levels. It wasn't just him. He was a procurer of children for well known people in our country," she said. "Bibi" was jailed on charges of raping 600 children. Mrs. Macedo also said that she handed police "many photographs depicting the many methods used to spirit children out of the orphanage, plus testimonies of children who identified the individuals who had assaulted them sexually on several occasions." Meanwhile, press reports informed that many explicit and highly disturbing photographs were found at a former ambassador's house, Jorge Ritto. In addition, when police investigators went to Ritto's house they found frighten children locked up in a room who had been missing for several months from Casa Pia.

The case of Joanna Cipriano

Joanna Cipriano was (or still is) a native Portuguese girl who was eight years of age at the time of her abduction and disappearance in the Village of Figueira, Portugal on September 12, 2004. The village of Figueira is only seven miles away from Praia da Luz which is where Madeleine Mc Cann was abducted and disappeared on the night of May 3, 2007. In both cases, the parents launched large media campaigns in an effort to find their daughters and in the two cases, the police did not find the missing girls but accused the mothers of killing their daughters without having any evidence to sustain the accusations. In both cases the parents were declared "arguidos" (suspects). After a supposed investigation conducted by the Portuguese Judiciary Police (Policia Judiciaria) Joanna was assumed to have been murdered by her mother although there was no evidence to support the bogus claim, nor her body was ever found. The accusation of the Portuguese police ended with the arrest and conviction for murder of Leonor and Joao Cipriano. The Portuguese police and the prosecutor claimed that Joanna was murder because she saw her mother and Joao in bed having sex. Joao and Leonor Cipriano have declared categorically that they did not murder Joanna, are not responsible for her mysterious disappearance, but believe she was abducted on orders by an international paedophile organisation and taken out of the country to an unknown destination. This same theory has been applied on the case of Madeleine Mc Cann to explain her abduction and mysterious disappearance.

Mark Williams Thomas, a British child protection specialist, believes that Joanna Cipriano and Madeleine Mc Cann cases are related, and said that the disappearance of two children unknown to each other within a period of three years in a seven mile radius, would be a huge coincidence, especially considering that Portugal is a small country with very few abductions. Mr. Thomas may be absolutely correct about his assessment of the two cases.

Leonor Cipriano forcibly admitted killing her daughter but only after 72 hours of continuous interrogations, severe beatings, and different types of physical torture that included forcing her to kneel on broken glass until she bled, and being thrown down a stair way by police officers. She admitted the accusations just to avoid more brutal torture and interrogations. Since these extra judicial acts occurred, Goncalo Amaral and four other Portuguese police officers have been charged with criminal offences as a result of their illegal conduct against defendant Leonor Cipriano.

Despite the well known background of Goncalo Amaral in relation to the Cipriano case, he was assigned to the Madeleine Mc Cann abduction investigation. Why was he really assigned to the case? Like in Joanna's case of which Amaral was in charge, police officers under his direction failed to seal off the area where Madeleine was, in addition to many other blunders that made possible her abduction a successful criminal plan. And just like in the Cipriano case, the police personnel under his leadership did not focus on finding the missing girl but instead, on accusing her mother and abruptly declaring her "arguido." Can all of these facts be coincidental? Decide for yourself by using common sense...

Conclusion

Paedophilia is a social phenomenon well entrenched and widely spread in Portugal and by extension in Spain too, consequently with their idiosyncratic and "cultural" similarities. It is the sick manifestation of individuals whose psychical and spiritual condition deep-rooted innately in thorough immorality and perversion became constitutive of a personal burden seeking selfish relief through the abominable and cowardly act, of abusing sexually a vulnerable innocent child. Those who thoroughly know and understand the Spanish "culture," will inevitably connect it to the Portuguese in matters of this nature because of the great similarities between them, including that which relates to past highly authoritarian and oppressive regimes, whose ideological base was linked to religious Puritanism and forms of government identified with neo-fascist traits, rather than democratic. Francisco Franco of Spain and Antonio de Oliveira Salazar of Portugal are two good examples of ruthless regimes of that type. These authoritarian, backward and unpopular rulers dictated with an iron fist for decades, contributing thereby to the creation of "cultures" that subverted natural good principles and values, and replaced them with warped and sick mentalities capable of perpetrating the worst heinous crimes, such as raping and murdering an innocent child. It is not an exaggeration to state that paedophiles are a product of fascism.

It is under this sordid, evil, satanic, disgusting and very sick social background reality in Portugal, that different abductions and disappearance of children --including Madeleine Mc Cann-- connected with paedophile organisations known to the Portuguese officialdom, took place there as part of a long and entrench tradition of perversion and criminality which those who benefit from it don't want to see ending. On the basis of the facts connected with the reckless and intended Portuguese police performance on the case, the author believes that it is them who have the many unanswered questions regarding the well-planned abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann on the night of May 3, 2006 in Praia da Luz. The Portuguese police should be investigated thoroughly by the European Court of Human Rights.

Take heed: Portugal and Spain can be highly dangerous and harmful places for children, due to their official corruption and paedophilia entrenchment

The abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann and the Portuguese police conspiracy to cover-up their crimes against humanity

"...mere unfounded speculations accusing Gerry and Kate Mc Cann of killing their daughter are widely publicised while the known criminal background of some police officials is silenced..."

What started by Gerry and Kate Mc Cann as a desperate effort to find their daughter Madeleine (Maddie) following her abduction and disappearance, the ruling elite controlled Portuguese media turned the tragedy into a macabre soap opera filled with wild speculations, false rumours, innuendoes, lies, and all type of manipulations aimed at diverting the public attention from focussing on what is now beginning to emerge as a real possibility: The Portuguese police could be solely responsible for the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann on the night of May 3, 2007 in Praia da Luz, Portugal.

Adhered and subordinated unconditionally to the interests of the ruling class establishment, the Portuguese media echoed loudly the police version of what happened to Maddie on the night she disappeared from the room where she was sleeping. In an authentic charade that gradually escalated into a frenzy orgy, the Portuguese media continuously and intensively hammer away at the well premeditated and destructive version of the police, which accused Gerry and Kate Mc Cann of killing Maddie without a shred of valid evidence. The morbid Portuguese media circus sought to brainwash the public into acquiring a mental state in tune with the criminal police version of what did not actually happened. The well orchestrated Portuguese media campaign to demonise the Mc Canns has been amplified shamelessly by the Spanish media, whose incredible hypocrisy exceeds the limits of dignity in their contribution to help the Portuguese police obtain what they really want: Find a culprit and close the case as soon as possible and at any cost. This includes the Mc Canns losing their daughter for the rest of their lives. Why is the Spanish official establishment so keenly interested in helping the Portuguese police to end the case as soon as possible? We must not forget that several children were abducted and disappeared in Spain also during recent years and months, including Mari Luz Cortes, a five year old gypsy girl who went missing during early January in the town of Huelva in southern Spain, which is not too far from the border with Portugal, and only 120 miles from Praia da Luz. The Portuguese and the Spanish are very similar in idiosyncrasies and in almost everything else, including "culture" and proneness towards criminality; they see each other almost like brothers and collaborate mutually when it comes to protecting their own interests.

Silent suspects

In the Portuguese media, no comments at all are ever made --let along questioning-- on the doubtful and suspicious criminal background of some police officials that were fist assigned to work on the Mc Cann case. However, on the Internet there are thousands or even millions of people who study the many details of the case, are looking, and keeping abreast on its developments, including this writer; Many of these folks are Portuguese nationals while others are foreigners living in different parts of the Algarve, including Praia da Luz; they know details and things in their turf others don't just as is common in most tightknit small towns. It is through this system of people-to-people contacts that reliable information on Goncalo Amaral --who was the general co-ordinator in the Mc Cann case at the beginning-- was obtained regarding his involvement in the Casa Pia paedophile scandal in which children were abducted and disappeared. Mr. Amaral was also accused and indicted for severely beating and torturing Leonor Cipriano, mother of Joanna, who also disappeared near Praia da Luz in 2004. In that case, Joanna's mother was also falsely accused of killing her daughter and is now in prison for a supposed murder of a victim whose body was never found. Joanna is believed to have been kidnapped by a paedophile organisation and taken out of the country. Mr. Amaral lead the inquiries in that case along with four other police officers, and according to the criminal complaint against them, he viciously beat up and tortured Mrs. Cipriano and forced her to sign a confession which railroad her into a long prison term for a crime she did not commit.

William Thomas, a British expert told Sky News that too many coincidences exist between the Joanna Cipriano and Madeleine Mc Cann cases to be ignored. Mr. Thomas, like many others, refuse to believe the Portuguese police version which accuses Gerry and Kate Mc Cann of killing Maddie. Meanwhile, in Portugal there is a highly intense silence and many are asking why Mr. Amaral with his criminal background was assigned initially to the Mc Cann case...

The mysterious bald negro man

Like in the previous case, the Portuguese media does not mention anything about a bald negro man wearing sun glasses who appears in the background of a photograph, watching Madeleine with a grin on his face while she was playing with her father. The Portuguese police has refused to acknowledge and identify this man officially as a police officer, but those who know him have told sources that he is in fact a member of the Policia Judiciaria (PJ) of Portugal. This man also appears in the company of other police man and Robert Murat in other pictures. Mr. Murat was declared "arguido" (suspect) in the Mc Cann case.

Is Robert Murat hiding something?

The Portuguese media has ceased to say anything about Robert Murat who is a police confident and translator. Mr. Murat is the same man who rented a car after the abduction and disappearance of Madeline Mc Cann, despite the fact that he owns three automobiles. Curiously also, is that although he is a resident of Praia da Luz, Mr. Murat wrote the address of his ex-wife in Norfolk, England on the car rental contract and a phone number that appears to be in Spain. But what is even more surprising, is that Mr. Murat registered the domain of his business in Internet (www.romigen.com) under the false name "Oberto Muray," and that a surreptitious Journalist took a picture of two women leaving his house during very late hours of the night, holding each one a child covered with a blanket.

Mr. Murat is really a very particular individual within the context of the case related to the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann not too far from where he lives. His German girl friend Michaela Walczuch is still the wife of his friend Luis Antonio who works in maintenance at the Mark Warner Ocean Club, which is the place where Madeleine was abducted. Also very attention grabbing, is the great resemblance of Luis Antonio and Michaela, with a man and a woman who were seen at a service station off a road leading towards Spain, with a blond little girl after Madeleine's abduction and disappearance in Praia da Luz took place only hours before. Can all of these details be a mere coincidence? I think not.

Conclusion

The recent official statement made by Carlos Anjos of the Policia Judiciaria (PJ) can be interpreted as a prelude, for an up-coming declaration to shelve the case related to Madeleine Mc Cann. It is a political sleaze tactic to prepare the public for the final official news on a case they knew about it long before actually occurring. Reading his statement that "we have more important problems than finding Madeleine" [sic] is not a surprise to those who have been analysing and closely following the many intrinsic aspects of the case, since the morning of May 4, 2007 when we first heard the news at wake up time. Mr. Anjos words are merely an official formality to start a process aimed at placing the abominable crime perpetrated against an innocent child, into a convenient social oblivion that will protect the interest of those truly responsible for the monumental inhumanity of the horrendous deed. Moreover, the official declaration of Mr. Anjos is not surprising either since we are familiar with the case of Leonor Cipriano. The only difference between that case and the present one, is that Mrs. Cipriano is suffering unjustly in prison while neither one of the Mc Canns are, probably because they are British and not Portuguese. If they were Portuguese they would be in the same or similar predicament Mrs. Cipriano is in now.

We already know that sooner than later the "news" that Madeleine's case was shelved will be broadcast on prime time now that a prelude was introduced. When it happens, it will be the certification to legitimise the destruction of a child's life and her family, and the culmination of a well-elaborated criminal plan for whatever reasons. We can not prove it at this point, but have reasons to suspect on the basis of the truth the Portuguese police have been covering, that Madeleine and other children that were also kidnapped, are being kept hidden and locked away out of public view in a place under extra judicial conditions but with full official knowledge and consent. Possibly some where in southern Spain. We further believe that the abduction of Madeleine is a State crime, rather than the deed of an organisation or group whose activities may be related to paedophilia. Personally, the author very strongly suspects that Madeleine Mc Cann was abducted by one or more individuals connected to the Portuguese police.

Is the Portuguese police implicated in the abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann?

Did the Portuguese police kidnapped Madeleine Mc Cann?

The Spanish media Internet source JM Noticias (JM News) whose address is www.jmnoticias.com published on February 8, 2008 an article in Spanish entitled: ¿Secuestro un policia a Madeleine Mc Cann? Translation: Did a policeman kidnapped Madeleine Mc Cann?

According to the article, while the media have been publishing speculations on Madeleine's case, the author of a blog had predicted that the Portuguese police would declare Gerry and Kate Mc Cann "arguidos" (suspects) as a tactic to conceal the implication of police officers in the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine on May 3, 2007. In the blog titled "master of fate" some unusual and suspicious photographs show Gerry and Kate Mc Cann being closely watched by a policeman shortly before Madeleine vanished. The author of the blog who goes by the anonymous "Inu Yasha" assures his audience that " [...] the Portuguese police has not really being looking for Maddie because they know where she is. The police have instead dedicated to create a hostile environment against her parents so they can charge them with the dead of their daughter." Mr. "Yasha" further continuos by stating that "[...] instead of looking for the little girl since they know where she is, the Portuguese police have been preparing the terrain by working very intensively on creating a favourable public opinion with the end in mind to imprison both parents and close the case."

The article says that in his blog, the author wrote that the Portuguese police is repeating the same tricks used in an earlier and similar case in which the mother of another little girl who was also abducted and disappeared not far from Prai da Luz, was convicted without evidence and after suffering great torture. "It is almost exactly to the case of Leonor Cipriano who was convicted of murdering her daughter Joanna even though there was no proof that the child had died. I believe the little girl was abducted on orders by an international paedophile organisation. Goncalo Amaral from the Portuguese police was assigned to conduct the investigation and was also given the responsibility to investigate Madeleine's case. As in Joanna's case the final outcome in Madeleine's will be the same," wrote the author on his blog. Mr. " Yasha" also stated that in the suspicious pictures one can see Robert Murat in the company of the police and a negro man that was spying on Madeleine before her abduction. In fact, the negro appears in the background of a picture looking at Madeleine while she was playing with her father and the other two children. The blog is located at http://masalladeloobvio.spaces.live.com (in Spanish).

In the opinion of this writer, the information featured in the JM Noticias article on the contents of the blog is not necessarily frivolous nor unfounded. If you would look into the numerous facts and details related to the Portuguese police performance on Madeleine's case since day one, you would probably conclude that it is now a puzzle with too many pieces all scattered and deliberately being kept that way by a sinister veil of secrecy. What or who is the Portuguese police protecting? The answer to this question can only be obtained by conducting a thorough investigation of the Portuguese police itself by an outside force. All the pieces of the puzzle need to be put in place for all to see and understand the truth related to the well-planned and executed abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann. Only then will her father get the answers to his three questions:

1) Who abducted Madeleine
2) Why
3) Where is she being kept

Until the above-mentioned is done the actual situation of uncertainties will continue on while Madeleine suffers in God knows what conditions...

Portugal is a haven for paedophiles and...

Editor's Note: The original article was first published by the Daily Mail under the title "Why Portugal is a haven for paedophiles." The editing and/or modification of the original was done to accommodate additional information relevant to the subject of pedophilia and pederasty in Portugal with official involvement.

Portugal is a haven for paedophiles, pederasts and other freaks

The engine of a Ferrari sports car makes a distinctive sound produced by its turbocharger system, but when the children kept at Casa Pia (House of Pious) which is the most famous --and infamous-- Orphanage in Portugal heard the car roaring down the driveway, great fear swept through the dormitories. The sound of the Ferrari's engine could only mean one thing for them: A man known as "the doctor" was coming to call. Arriving at Casa Pia, an Orphanage in Lisbon where no less than 4 thousand children are cared for behind high stone walls, "the doctor" (Joao Diniz) would summon selected boys and girls for examinations one night each week. After checking that the selected children were not suffering from any sexual infections "the doctor" would be joined by Carlos Silvino, the Orphanage caretaker known also as "Bibi" who at the "doctor's" orders, would usher the unfortunate children into a waiting van. He is currently in jail. With "the doctor" following behind in his Ferrari, "Bibi" drove the van to luxurious homes located in prestigious districts where leading members of Lisbon high society and government officials live. At these homes the innocent and helpless children were repeatedly and savagely abused sexually for extended periods of time. This activity continued for years without those knowing about it keeping a profound silence under serious dead threats made by the Portuguese police. According to medical records, the injuries suffered by the victims were great and horrific consistent with sexual assault and violent rape of the children. The existence of this criminal activity became to be known as the "magic circle" within the corrupt Portuguese establishment, connected with international paedophile enterprises that were "purchasing" boys and girls from the Casa Pia Orphanage for their subsequent exploitation in other countries.

What relevance does all of this and more have with the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann in Praia da Luz which is about 280Km. From Lisbon? And what does this and more mean for Gerry and Kate Mc Cann who are not only coping with the tragedy of losing their child, but have been also victims of an evil and vicious Portuguese campaign of lies, smear and dangerous false accusations related to the disappearance of their daughter? There are two important reasons to be looked into the present case:

1. These facts are proof that Portugal has been and continuos to be a strong magnet for international predatory paedophiles and pederast organisations from around the world, who take advantaged of the country's lax laws and government corruption to prey on innocent children.

2. Paulo Rebelo, an urbane and methodical detective who lead the Casa Pia paedophile inquiry is now the new boss leading the investigation related to the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann.

Paulo Rebelo replaced former police chief Goncalo Amaral, who is the leading voice calling for the imprisonment of Gerry and Kate Mc Cann for the supposed murder of their daughter, as part of his strategy to cover up and protect the lucrative paedophile criminal enterprise in corrupt Portugal, of which he was (or still is) part of as a government functionary. In an effort to make up for the corrupt, amateurish, irresponsible, and fatal police performance that cause the lost of vital evidence during the first hours after the disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann during Amaral's police leadership, Mr. Rebelo has recruited his own team composed of savvy officers ranging from real professional computer analysts to homicide specialists with a reputation for leaving no stone unturned. According to sources, Mr. Rebelo launched furious private attacks on officers involved in the original investigation, and even accused them of being "narrow minded" about what really happened in the case and who was or wasn't guilty. So after months of courageously and intelligently resisting an assortment of ridiculous and nonsense accusations from the clumsy Amaral-lead police, Gerry and Kate Mc Cann are no longer the sole focus of the investigation lead by Mr. Rebelo, although the "arguido" (suspect) status still firmly in place against them as a result of the initial unprofessional police performance, and Amaral's intention to side-track our minds from the real facts of the case to protect the criminal interests of his associates. Incidentally, Goncalo Amaral and his accomplices now face criminal accusations in a case related to another missing child -Joanna Cipriano- after being accused by a witness who have pointed at him to be responsible for concealing vital evidence of brutal beatings and savage torture sessions, perpetrated against Joanna's mother for the sole purpose of forcing her to sing a false confession of killing her daughter and dumping the body into the Ocean. This is similar to what Amaral tried to do against Kate Mc Cann when interrogators offered her a "deal" consisting of declaring that she murder her daughter in exchange for a two year prison term. In addition, Amaral and his associates face many unanswered disciplinary questions related to the original investigation of the case and the overall performance of police officers under his leadership, who according to members of internationally recognised police agencies competent in the field of technical investigations --including agents from the Scotland Yard and former members of the M-16 British intelligence services-- the Portuguese police made blunders that contributed to the abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann a successful criminal plan. Among the many blunders the Portuguese police made are the following:

-The Portuguese police arrived at the scene of the crime two hours after they were first informed about the abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann.

-The Portuguese police did not seal off the area properly, and when technicians from the laboratory arrived at the scene, most of the vital evidence was already gone. A large number of people, including curious strangers, were allowed to wander in-and-out of the apartment touching items that could have had prints on them.

-The Portuguese police did not make an immediate public appeal and did not carried out proper forensic searches.

-The Portuguese police failed to alert international border stations the same night and as a result, it is possible that Madeleine was taken across the border inside of a vehicle without being seen. They called the border security two days after the abduction.

-The Portuguese police did not conduct a house-to-house search within the area in the early hours after the abduction, when the perpetuators of the crime or witness, were still likely to be within the area of the rather small village.

-The Portuguese police did not conduct a finger print search on the streets around the hotel; this combined with not sealing off the whole area caused forensic evidence from the abductor to have been lost.

-The Portuguese police failed to search every existing dwelling in the whole village, including empty or closed houses that should have been opened with or without the consent of their owners, as Madeleine was very likely to have been kept hidden not far from the hotel after her abduction, before being taken out of the immediate area or country.

-The Portuguese police ignored a tip provided by a witness around noon time on May 5, 2007 when she saw Madeleine at a road service station, in the company of a dark-skinned man who shoved her into the car and drove off at high speed when he noticed he was being observed. The witness told police she heard Madeleine ask the man in English "can I see daddy soon..?" The Portuguese police responded to the call ten days later.

There were probably more blunders made by the incompetent Portuguese police that undoubtedly contributed to the abduction of Madeleine Mc Cann a successful crime. Many experts have concluded that the abduction could have been aborted had the Portuguese police been professional. They are not. Incredibly, a police source said that considering the level of corruption in Portugal, not sealing off the flat where Madeleine was sleeping could have been deliberate, so as to provide the abductor with favourable conditions in case he needed to return to the crime scene to recover some object he may have left behind! While the shift in the investigation under Mr. Rebelo may ease the intolerable pressure on the Mc Canns, it will do very little or none to reduce their grand distress for as long as their daughter is missing.

In the opinion of this writer, within the context of the theory that Madeleine was abducted on the orders of an international paedophile organisation, the Mc Cann family should not have any hope or trust on the Portuguese police as they are involved in covering up their own corruption and paedophile scandals. They are more concerned with that than with finding Madeleine, and it is very possible that they don't want her to be found or the case resolved by others outside of their jurisdiction, because it would shatter their whole fallacious inventions which only purpose is to keep up the present status quo as a shield to protect the international reputation of Portugal and prevent people around the world, from thinking of their country as a paradise haven for paedophiles and other freaks. This is likely to be what is truly behind keeping the stupid "arguido" status against Gerry and Kate Mc Cann; the Portuguese know that for as long as the "arguido" status is kept on them they wont be free to tell us the real stuff we all want to hear. For these and other reasons, the author believes that individuals who write pieces like this and publish them for the world to read, are doing a valuable contribution to an aberration that's lasting too long and must end as soon as possible. We want Madeleine Mc Cann to be found and returned to her family and home where she belongs.

Pedro Namora is a native Portuguese man, a former resident of the Orphanage, and an eye witness of eleven rapes on minors who were tied down to their beds. Mr. Namora is now a criminal Lawyer who has stated categorically that individuals in the Portuguese police and government have conspired to suppress evidence fearing damage to the country's reputation. "Portugal is a paedophiles paradise," said Mr. Namora who is currently campaigning on behalf of the victims at Casa Pia. "If all the names come out it will cause a social earthquake in Portugal. There is a massive sophisticated paedophile network here, stretching from common employees through different government departments, including the judiciary and the police. The network is enormous and extremely powerful. There are judges, ambassadors, high ranking politicians, ministers, police officials, bankers, ruling elite members, and others involved in the paedophile network here. It will be extremely difficult to dismantle the structure. These people protect each other as they know that if one of them is arrested all will be arrested. They don't want anyone to find out what is really going on in Portugal," he declared. Mr. Namora now age 44, watched in sadness as friends he grew up with sank into alcoholism, drug addiction and death as a result of their traumatic childhood experiences at the Orphanage. "I was the only one who made it and I couldn't keep silent," he said. He has received dead threats and warnings by the police every since he started campaigning on behalf of sexually abused children, and exposing the Casa Pia as a "supermarket for children." Mr. Namora believes the scandal brought to light will underline Portugal's growing attraction to paedophile groups which are suspected to be connected to the abduction and disappearance of seven children in Portugal, including Madeleine Mc Cann.

Another witness of sexual crimes committed against children at the Orphanage hell is Costa Macedo. Mrs. Macedo, a former government Minister, kept silent for years after being told to expect her sure dead if she spoke about what she knew. "The caretaker ("Bibi") was just one element in a huge and powerful paedophile network that involved people in important government positions. It wasn't just him. As the official caretaker of the Orphanage, he was the procurer of victims for well-known and wealthy individuals in our society ranging from diplomats, politicians, people in the media, and others," she said.

Amid the Portuguese paedophile network scandal and evidence that it has become endemic in Portugal, the Interpol declared the country as the worse offender in Europe. The Casa Pia Orphanage paedophile case may not have a direct link to the abduction and disappearance of Madeleine Mc Cann on May 3, 2007 in Praia da Luz, but the sick social environment pervading in Portuguese society associated with paedophilia being allowed to operate with official consent, is the root that provides the conditions for that criminal activity to exist in Portugal. It is within the context of this background and the poor police performance and corrupt attitudes in the investigation of Madeleine Mc Cann's abduction, that led to the bungled results we know now. For all of these and other reasons, the author categorically declares that Portugal is a haven for paedophiles and other freaks.
