Helge B is the one who has provided the info on the rape case of the 72 y.o woman! An article has just been released, it's in German so I will post the translation below. This must be the man FF is referring too but FF does not have access to the testimony. HB's statement was used in the case of the 72 y.o woman and his statement included MM but this was redacted.
'A witness with multiple criminal records incriminated suspect Christian B. in the Madeleine McCann case. This statement was made unrecognizable during the trial for the rape of a 72-year-old woman.
One of the main witnesses in the case of
Madeleine McCann , who disappeared in 2007 in Praia da Luz, Portugal , also
played a key role in the allegation of the rape of a 72-year-old American woman.
In both cases, Helge B. seriously incriminated the German Christian B., who had not yet been sentenced to seven years for the rape.
Helge B., with a multiple criminal record, reported to Scotland Yard about an annual kite festival in southern Spain, where he met Christian B. in spring 2008. There, the now 43-year-old is said to have admitted to having to do with the girl's disappearance.
In the testimony of
Helge B. in the rape proceedings, however, this passage is blacked out. "In order to be able to check the credibility of the witness, the passage should have been disclosed," says
Christian B's lawyer Friedrich Fülscher and demands "immediate access to the files". His client denies the allegations in both cases.
