Here is the complete translation of the article in El Mundo that, so far as I can tell, appears to contain material plagiarised from Paulo Pereira Cristovao's book, "A Estrela de Madeleine." Many thanks, again, to astro for first noticing this, to xklamation for obtaining the complete copy (not available on the web), to Stinky Sardine, Anna, The Academic, santacoloma and Mercedes for checking portions of my translation and/or offering suggestions, to Fenugreek, SkinnyDip, and eraumavez for also offering assistance, and to earthspirit for offering to learn Spanish in a hurry so she could help if all else failed. Even as I type this Mantra, Kazlux, and cassen for either volunteering to read and offer comments on the whole thing or passing it on to a friend who can do so. I have asked the latter 3 people to PM me with any changes or corrections they think should be made and will edit as necessary. I received dozens of PMs last night (3A'ers are the best!), and if I have missed anyone, I sincerely apologise.

I shall say this: In my opinion, this is a breath-taking breach of journalistic ethics by Mr. Malvar and also a stunning lack of editorial responsibility on the part of El Mundo, which is the second-largest newspaper in Spain. I searched and searched for ANYTHING in the article that might indicate that Mr. Malvar was acknowledging that he had lifted parts of his article from Mr. Cristovao's book: I found none. In fact, in a few places the translation was especially difficult because Mr. Malvar used the PORTUGUESE WORD rather than translating it into Spanish.

To my way of thinking, this shows how far journalism has fallen in this case, and also to what great lengths some people will go to slag off the PJ and Portugal. Fortunately, in this case they were caught red-handed.

Title: “Disappearance: The Mystery Uninterred:A Confused Year Without Madeleine�?BR>On the brink of the anniversary, "Chronicle" returns to Praia da Luz and considers how Portuguese and British police are more worried over their private war than looking for the child. The Portuguese insist: she is dead, and the McCanns, implicated. The British still believe she is alive.

Texto: No podemos perder nunca nuestra intuición de policías, cojones. Tenemos que seguir siendo mañosos... no somos noruegos, ni finlandeses, cojones. Somos portugas, y la bofia portuga se revuelve, improvisa, se fía de la intuición, se ayuda de los CSI, eso es cierto, pero también podemos andar por ahí como angelitos con batitas blancas, debidamente esterilizados, engominados y comiendo hojitas de lechuga porque son más saludables. La malta fuma, le gusta comer y beber unas copas».

Text: We can never lose our policemen’s intuition, [expletive deleted]. We must remain skillful ... we are not Norwegians, Finns,[expletive deleted]. We are Portuguese and Portuguese cops will dig around, improvise, rely on intuition, make use of the CSI, that is true, but we can also walk around like angels with white christening gowns, properly sterilized, starched and eating lettuce leaves because they are healthier. The member of the gang smokes, likes to eat and drink a few drinks." [Note: “Malta,�?so far as I know or can find in any dictionary, is not a Spanish word; it is Portuguese. It means “gang,�?but rather in the sense, I think, of “our gang�?or “band of brothers,�?than any sort of group of bad fellows.]

Así arenga el chefe Joao Tavares, desde el asiento acompañante del Ford Focus, al inspector Francisco Meireles. Son bofia. Son malta. Son policía portuguesa. Cuando esta conversación ocurre, hace ya cinco meses que desapareció Madeleine McCann del apartamento de sus padres en la localidad algarvenha de Praia da Luz. Desde aquella noche del 3 de mayo en que esfumaron a la niña, hacen ese viaje desde Portimao a Luz con asiduidad. De noche. Tantas veces lo han hecho en estos cinco meses que Meireles podría apartar las manos del volante, porque el Ford Focus ya se tiene que saber los 21 kilómetros de memoria. Si no se lo sabe de memoria, es que el Ford Focus es también un portuga, un malta. Esa noche, Tavares está cabreado, y por eso ha querido volver. Es la noche del 2 de octubre de 2007 y esa tarde han apartado de la investigación a su jefe, Gonçalo Amaral. Lo han apartado, según él, por culpa de esos ingleses que comen lechuga y que intentan proteger a los McCann: porque Amaral, Tavares, Meireles y todo el grupo de la Polícia Judiciária de Portimao están convecidos de que el matrimonio es culpable de la desaparición de su niña. Y de que han conseguido ocultarlo gracias a las influencias de alto nivel de que los McCann gozan en el Gobierno británico.

So exhorts the chief Joao Tavares, from the passenger seat of the Ford Focus, to the inspector Francisco Meireles. They are cops. They are a gang of friends. They are Portuguese police. When this conversation occurs, it has been five months since Madeleine McCann disappeared from the apartment of her parents in the Algarvian locality of Praia da Luz. Since that night of May 3 in which the girl disappeared, they make this trip from Portimao to Luz frequently. At night. They have done it so many times in these five months that Meireles could remove his hands from the steering wheel, because the Ford Focus already knows the 21 km from memory. If you don’t know it by heart, the Ford Focus is also Portuguese, a brother. That night, Tavares is angry, and therefore wanted to return. It is the night of October 2, 2007 and his boss, Gonçalo Amaral, has been removed from the investigation. Amaral has been removed, he says, because of those lettuce-eating Englishmen who are trying to protect the McCanns: because Amaral Tavares, Meireles and the whole group of Polícia Judiciária of Portimao are convinced that the couple are guilty of the disappearance of their daughter. And they have succeeded in concealing it thanks to the high-level influence that the McCanns enjoy in the British Government.

23 de abril de 2008. El periodista aparca el coche en el mismo lugar donde Tavares y Meireles esperaban: «A ver si la niña muerta nos dice algo». La niña sigue callada...
La cancela del apartamento 5-A de la Rua Françisco Gentil Martins está cerrada con un candado cutre, por si aún hay curiosos o peregrinos hacia el misterio insepulto de la Virgen Madeleine. Ya, en el Algarve, nadie se preocupa de ella. No ha bajado el turismo. Los periódicos vuelven a vender lo que vendían antes (llegaron a triplicar tirada y visitas a sus sites en la época caliente de la investigación). En el pequeño jardín, florecen, ordenadamente asilvestradas, algunas flores que alguien debe de cuidar para salvaguardarlas de la seca de este verano prematuro. A las holandesas del barrio ya se les han escocido los escotes horizontales con tanto sol, y eso que aún no ha terminado abril. Todo sigue igual que antes de Maddie. Los que más se acuerdan son los únicos de esta barriada lujosa de casitas blancas que hablan portugués: el servicio doméstico, los repartidores, los pescaderos.

April 23, 2008. The journalist parks the car at the same place and Tavares Meireles waits: “To see if the dead girl tells us something." The girl remains silent ...
The little fence of apartment 5-A Rua Françisco Gentil Martins is closed with a cumbersome padlock, because there are still curious pilgrims to the unburied mystery of the Virgin Madeleine. Already, in the Algarve, nobody is worried about her. Tourism has not fallen. The periodicals re-sell what they sold before (they tripled their print runs and visits to their sites in the hot period of the investigation). In the small garden are blooming well-arranged wildflowers, some flowers that someone must take care to safeguard from the dryness of this premature summer. The tulips of the neighbourhood are already lying down in the sun, and April has not yet ended. Everything remains as before Maddie. They who most agree are the only ones of this luxurious neighbourhood of white houses that speak Portuguese: the domestic servants, the delivery men, the fishmongers.

En Porto da Luz no hay censo. La población es flotante. Ingleses, franceses, alemanes, americanos que aparecen un verano y desaparecen para siempre. Eso sí, gente bien que no está acostumbrada a perder un niño.

In Porto da Luz [Note: Must mean PRAIA da Luz.] there is no census. The population is floating [fluid]. British, French, Germans, Americans appear for a summer and disappear forever. Of course, no one is accustomed to losing a child.

Por eso, quizá, los McCann actuaron con tan escaso tino aquella noche del 3 de mayo. Llamaron antes a Gran Bretaña que a la policía portuguesa. Y, antes que a la policía portuguesa, llamaron a todos sus vecinos, con lo que cuando Gonçalo Amaral, coordinador de la Polícia Judiciária, llegó con su equipo de investigadores, el apartamento 5-A de la Rua Françisco Gentil estaba colapsado de británicos orondos y autosatisfechos organizando como mariscales batidas de búsqueda para las que nunca se pusieron de acuerdo. Y pisoteando pruebas como imbéciles.

So, perhaps, the McCanns acted with little good sense that night of May 3. They called Britain before the Portuguese police. And, before the Portuguese police, they called all their neighbours, so that when Gonçalo Amaral, coordinator of the Polícia Judiciária, arrived with his team of investigators, the flat at 5-A Françisco Gentil de la Rua was brought to a standstill by fat, British, self-designated field marshals organizing searches on which there was no agreement. And trampling evidence like imbeciles.

Fue lo primero que mosqueó a Gonçalo Amaral, que este miércoles, después de 28 años en el cuerpo, ha abandonado la policía quedándose con una pensión miserable de 1.000 euros mensuales. ¿Por qué? «Hay cosas que no tienen precio. La dignidad es una de ellas, y le ha sido retirada por sus superiores de Lisboa», comentó uno de sus hombres, que lleva una década trabajando junto a él.

It was the first thing that made Gonçalo Amaral suspicious, who on Wednesday after 28 years on the force, has agreed to leave the police with a paltry pension of 1,000 euros per month. Why? "There are things that have no price. Dignity is one of them, and it has been withdrawn by their superiors in Lisbon," said one of his men, who spent a decade a decade working alongside him.

El pecado de Amaral fue de pensamiento -después sería de palabra y obra, nunca de omisión- ya esa primera noche: cuando llegaron los portugas ya todo el mundo, empezando por Kate y Gerry McCann, hablaban de rapto. Nadie se planteaba que la niña de tres años se hubiera marchado por su propio pie, a pesar de que los McCann reconocían no haber echado el cerrojo por si sucedía algo en la casa. Y a todo su grupo de la Judiciária le mosqueó otra cosa: los gemelos Sean y Amelie, a pesar del vociferio de todos aquellos cerveceros mariscales ingleses en el salón contiguo, no se despertaron en ningún momento. Ni siquiera cuando los padres decidieron trasladarlos en brazos a otra estancia abrieron los ojos.
-Esos niños estaban dopados, como se demostró luego.
-Eso no se demostró.
-No se comprobaron muchas cosas.

The sin of Amaral was of thinking �?after it would be of word and deed, not of omission �?ever since that first night: when the Portuguese arrived and the whole world, starting with Kate and Gerry McCann, spoke of abduction. Nobody suggested that the three-year-old girl could have left by her own feet, despite the McCanns�?admitting not bolting the door in case something happened in the house. And his entire group of Judiciária suspected another thing: the twins Sean and Amelie, despite all those beery British field marshals in the adjoining room, were not awakened at any time. Neither when the parents decided to move them in their arms to another room did they open their eyes.
- These kids were doped, as it showed then.
- That was not proved.
- Many things were not checked.
.
GUERRA COLONIAL.
COLONIAL WAR
No sólo es el equipo de Amaral el que en el Algarve piensa que la investigación sobre los culpables McCann no ha existido. El periodista Helder Nunes, director del semanario Barlovento de Portimao, y que ha seguido muy pormenorizadamente el caso Maddie, anunciaba a Crónica pocas horas antes de que ocurriera la noticia de la semana: «Gonçalo Amaral va a dejar la policía y va a escribir el libro de lo que realmente pasó con Maddie» (Amaral, que ya no habla con la prensa, anunciaba su dimisión apenas tres horas después alegando que quería recuperar su «libertad de expresión».

It is not only Amaral’s team in the Algarve that thinks that the investigation on the McCann culprits has not existed. The journalist Helder Nunes, director of the weekly Windward of Portimao, and who has followed the Maddie case in great detail, announced to Chronicle a few hours before it happened the news of the week: "Gonçalo Amaral will leave the police and will write the book of what really happened to Maddie." (Amaral, who no longer speaks with the press, announced his resignation just three hours after claiming that he wanted to regain his ‘freedom of expression �?.

Nunes, que conoce a Amaral, explica sus razones antes de que la decisión del policía se oficialice: «La policía portuguesa está convencida de que hubo un accidente en casa, de que los McCann tienen una posición social y política que defender y de que se vuelven locos y se deshacen del cadáver. Los policías ingleses se pasan toda la investigación ocultando las pruebas que puedan incriminar a los McCann, porque eso implicaría a Gordon Brown». Nunes no olvida que el primer ministro británico les prestó a los padres a uno de sus asesores más cercanos, Clarence Mitchell, para que fuera el portavoz de la familia ante los medios. No olvida que Gerry McCann estaba en el punto de mira del ministerio de Sanidad británico para acceder a un cargo gubernamental de relevancia. No olvida que los padres llamaron antes a Gran Bretaña que al 112 portugués, cuando éstos estaban más cerca.

Nunes, who knows Amaral, explained his reasons before the decision of the police will have been formalized: "The Portuguese police are convinced that there was an accident at home, that the McCanns have a social and political position to defend and that they went mad and disposed of the corpse. The British police spend the whole investigation by concealing evidence that might incriminate the McCanns, because that would involve Gordon Brown." Nunes does not forget that the British prime minister gave to the parents one of his closest advisers, Clarence Mitchell, to be the spokesman for the family before the media. Do not forget that Gerry McCann was in the spotlight of the British ministry of Health to access a relevant government office. Do not forget that parents called Britain prior to the Portuguese 112, when they were closer.

Crónica estuvo con Gonçalo Amaral, «el gran enemigo de los McCann» -como titulaba el jueves su renuncia a la policía el diario portugués 24 horas-, una semana antes de que lo apartaran del caso.

Chronicle was with Gonçalo Amaral, "the great enemy of the McCanns�?-as his resignation on Thursday to the police was called by the Portuguese newspaper 24 oras - one week before he was to depart from the case. [Note: This is a rehash of an interview that was printed in September 2007.]

-Tú no has visto a la madre. Tú no conoces a la madre. Es fría. Es lista. Es una actriz.
Amaral fue apartado por criticar ante la prensa el empeño ocultista de la policía inglesa, su empecinamiento en evitar que los McCann fueran investigados. Y, además, imputó a los McCann tras un tenso interrogatorio nocturno el 7 de septiembre. Dos días después, la pareja y los gemelos huyeron del Algarve y se refugiaron en Gran Bretaña. Seis días más tarde, Amaral habla por vez primera con la prensa desde la desaparición de Maddie. Elige un medio extranjero: Crónica. Pide que el encuentro no se registre como entrevista sino como resultado de fuentes terceras. Sólo quiere que se transcriba su negativa cuando la prensa inglesa lo acaba de sodomizar: le han acusado de borracho, de vago y, lo que más le duele, de ir mal vestido.
-¿No desea responder a las acusaciones?
-No.
-¿No le molesta tanto ruido mediático?
-Como dijo San José, la Justicia se hace en silencio.

- You have not seen the mother. You do not know the mother. She is cold. She is smart. She is an actress.
Amaral was set off by the press to criticize the efforts of the occult British police, their stubbornness in preventing the McCann investigation. And also charged to McCann after a tense night interrogation on 7 September. Two days later, the couple and the twins fled the Algarve and took refuge in Britain. Six days later, Amaral spoke for the first time with the press since the disappearance of Maddie. He chose a foreign means: Chronicle. He requested that the meeting not be recorded as an interview but as a result of third [party] sources. He only wants to be transcribed his denials in those matters in which the British press has just screwed him: they have accused him of drunkenness, laziness, and, that which hurts him most, of being a bad dresser.
-- Do you not want to respond to the accusations?
- No.
-- Doesn’t the media commotion bother him so much?
- As San José said, justice is done in silence.

Ahora ya no es necesario mantener aquel anonimato. Gonçalo Amaral quedó con el periodista en un bar arrabalero de Olhao, a 80 kilómetros de Portimao. Su aspecto concuerda con el que le reprochan los lechugueros británicos: sin duda, ha dormido con el traje puesto en los últimos tres días; los que lleva sin afeitarse; como tiene fama de alcohólico, el periodista -también con cierto gusto- pide un whisky tras otro durante la entrevista, vasos que los ojos enrojecidos de Amaral siguen con ansiedad dipsómana; pero el Torrente que escenifica Gonçalo Amaral sobre mis whiskies y sus aguas enseguida muestra otras cartas:
-Tu me estás hablando de novelas policíacas. Tú escribes novelas policíacas. Yo hago otras cosas. Yo leo otras cosas. No las que lees tú. Y leo mucho.
Después uno se entera de que Torrente ha estudiado, con las notas más altas de su promoción, Criminología, Psicología, Sociología y Derecho. Un día uno de sus subordinados le preguntó:
-Jefe, ¿y cuál es la rama de investigación que más te pone?
-Las personas.

It is no longer necessary to maintain that anonymity. Gonçalo Amaral met with the journalist in an uncouth bar in Olhao, 80 kilometres from Portimao. His appearance agrees with that of which he is accused by the British lettuce-eaters: undoubtedly he has slept in the suit in the past three days; he hasn’t shaved; as he has a reputation as a drinker, the journalist- also with true pleasure –orders one whisky after another during the interview, glasses that the red eyes of Amaral continue following with anxiety; but the Torrente who dramatised Gonçalo Amaral on my whiskies and his waters immediately shows other cards:
- You're talking to me of police novels. You write police novels. I do other things. I read other things. I do not you see you. And I read a lot.
Afterwards one learns that Torrente has studied, with the highest marks for his promotion, criminology, psychology, sociology and law. One day one of his subordinates asked him:
- Chief, and what is the branch of investigation that puts you over?
- People.
[Note: The journalist appears to have given Amaral the nickname “el Torrente,�?which in Spanish means the rushing stream, the torrent, or the flood. Since it appears that he is also saying that Amaral �?somewhat longingly �?stuck to water whilst watching the journalist drink water, perhaps this is a play on the fact that Amaral was drinking water rather than spirits that night.]

TRAJES DE HUGO BOSS.
THE HUGO BOSS SUIT
.
No le importa que le tachen de borracho o de vago. Lo que le molesta es que la prensa inglesa se meta con sus trajes arrugados, valleinclanescos, sudarios de su sueño durante tres días de vela en un sillón de la Judiciária, con migas en las solapas y en el entendimiento (que las lleva):
-Pero coño, Aníbal. ¡Que este traje es de Hugo Boss!

It is not important that they labeled him drunk or lazy. What bothers him is the English press with their objective of wrinkled suits, sweaty from three sleepness nights of sitting in an armchair in the Judiciária, with crumbs in lapels and in the understanding (that he is wearing them):
But [very bad word that Mum told me never to say], Aníbal. This suit is Hugo Boss!

Finalmente, a Gonçalo Amaral lo despidieron como coordinador de la investigación el 2 de octubre de 2007 (25 días después de inculpar a los McCann). Las razones: había hablado con la prensa -Crónica primero y el Diario de Noticias portugués una semana más tarde- criticando a la entorpecedora policía británica.

Finally, Gonçalo Amaral was dismissed as the coordinator of the investigation on 2 October 2007 (25 days after the McCanns were accused). [Note: The McCanns have not been formally accused. The writer is obviously referring to their being made arguidos.] The reasons: he had spoken to the press - Chronicle first and Portuguese Diario de Noticias one week later - criticizing the obstructionist British police. [Note: The adjective entorpecedora, as applied to the British police, is an important choice of words, in my opinion, and it is not possible to determine exactly what the author is saying. The Spanish verb entorpecer can mean to obstruct, to hinder, to set back, and also, in the sense of work, to delay. All I can say is, pick one. The meaning clearly is that the British police were not helping matters.]

Crónica ha conseguido hablar con uno de los colaboradores de Amaral. A pesar de haber dimitido el miércoles, no ha tirado la toalla. Prepara un libro, el libro, sobre la vergüenza sentida por los investigadores portugueses ante la presión de los ingleses en este tema. No es el único.

Chronicle has managed to speak with one of the collaborators of Amaral. Despite having resigned on Wednesday, he has not thrown in the towel. He is preparing a book, the book, about the shame felt by Portuguese investigators faced with pressure from the British in this matter. You're not alone.

Paulo Pereira Cristóvao estuvo entre 1990 y 2007 en la Polícia Judiciária como inspector. Trabajó en los departamentos (sic) de Combate y Bandidismo, de Tráfico de Seres Humanos, de Terrorismo, de Mafias del Este. En su éxito editorial A estrela de Madeleine -recién publicado en Portugal por la editorial Presença-, confirma con nombres y apellidos todas la teorías de Amaral: a los padres se les murió la niña; lo ocultaron para evitar una cárcel portuguesa que consideran del tercer mundo; implicaron a sus amigos y a altos funcionarios británicos [la presencia del MI6 en la zona es caldo común con el que viven desde entonces policías y periodistas algarveños]; hicieron desaparecer el cuerpo; convirtieron el caso en la desaparición mediática más grande de toda la historia; adelantaron en rueda de prensa pistas falsas... Nadie ha demandado a Pereira Cristaváo. Su obra no está en las estanterías de las librerías: se vende apilada sobre los mostradores.

Between 1990 and 2007 Paulo Pereira Cristovao was in the Policia Judiciaria as an inspector. He worked in the departments of Combate y Bandidismo, human trafficking, terrorism, and eastern Mafias. In his publishing success “A Estrela de Madeleine�?�?recently pubhished in Portugal by the publisher Presença �?he confirms with names and surnames all Amaral’s theories: their little girl died; they concealed it to avoid a Portuguese prison, which they consider Third World; they involved their friends and high British officials (the presence of MI6 in the area is common knowledge with police and journalists living in the Algarve since then; they made the body disappear; turned the case of the disappearance into the biggest media event in all history; they put forward a false trail in press conference[s]. No one has sued Pereira Cristavao. His work is not on the shelves of bookstores: it is sold piled on top of the counters.

Julián Peribáñez es detective. La agencia de Julián Peribáñez, detective de la agencia Método Tres, lleva siete meses buscando a Madeleine. Y, contrariamente a lo que piensa la bofia portuga, la buscan viva. Más de 20 detectives han trabajado simultáneamente en el caso. Un coste exorbitado. Han atendido más de 2.500 pistas y han seguido más de un centenar en Argentina, México, Marruecos, Bosnia, Portugal... «Nosotros seguimos buscando a Madeleine viva. En caso contrario, no lo haríamos», dice convencido. Él no desprecia a la bofia portuga, pero sigue la estela de los investigadores británicos: Maddie está viva; los padres no tienen nada que ver; los portugas se sienten colonizados y van a lo fácil.

Thank you so much Beachy and everyone else for your effort!

So, just to get it straight: chief Joao Tavares and inspector Francisco Meireles are the two fictional characters from Paulo Pereira Cristovao's book, who are sold to us as real life police men?

I am absolutely stunned?

This con-artist of a journalist must have a high opinion about the intelligence of his readership - well, perhaps he is drawing conclusions based on his own

I hope someone blows his cover?

Edited to add: does anyone has a link to astro's blog please? I would love to read more from the book! Many thanks!

beachy

Yes, sina, that's right. In his book "A Estrela de Madeleine," Paulo Pereira Cristovao called his fictional policemen Joao Tavares and Francisco Meireles. And Anibal Malvar says he interviewed them for his story.

This is past stupid. I think the guy must be trying for a disability retirement based on mental illness or something.

His cover is blown. Xklamation has already been in touch with Diario Noticias once and is going to send them the whole translation this morning. She is also going to provide it to Goncalo Amaral's attorney, who I am sure will be enchanted, since he has already called Malvar a liar. Oh, and I think she's going to send it to Carlos Anjos of the PJ union, Paulo Cristovao, just in case he might think it fun to sue for copyright infringement, some English papers, etc.

astro

This was team work at its best!

Thank you to all of those who contributed to expose this, some took considerable risks and others invested lots of time & effort.

I just hope that the Truth may one day be exposed as well. For now, all that we can do is to uncover small pieces of the picture, one at a time. Which you all just did.

CONGRATULATIONS!

 

beachy

Obrigada, astro. In the first instance, if you had not translated and summarised Paulo Pereira Cristovao's book for us, no one could have known this. And then you were the one who first noticed it and sounded the alarm. Well
