Diana. Ainda...

O caso da morte da princesa Diana ainda mexe. Pena que Oswald Le Winter tenha morrido no início deste ano, senão teria muito para nos contar. Fica aqui o registo de um caso que, presumo, ainda está longe de acabar: "Diana death: New information assessed by Scotland Yard".

Entretanto, o filho mais novo de Diana, o príncipe Harry esteve recentemente em Angola a promover o mesmo trabalho da mãe contra as minas terrestres. Fica-lhe bem, sobretudo depois de ter estado na guerra do Afeganistão... .

Algumas considerações que poucos sabem sobre a minha ligação com o caso da morte da Princesa Diana

Chegou ao fim o inquérito à morte da Princesa Diana e, embora Al Fayed prometa não deixar cair o assunto, decidiu-se que foi acidente. Nada surpreendente, pois jamais veríamos os serviços secretos ingleses admitir o quer que fosse. Chegou, portanto, a altura de revelar alguns dados sobre o caso que me fazem ter uma opinião suspeita sobre a decisão final.
É público que dei abrigo durante alguns meses e segui de perto a vida daquela que foi até hoje a única pessoa no mundo a ter cumprido pena de prisão por causa do caso, Oswald Le Winter.
Fui entrevistá-lo na prisão austríaca onde cumpria pena por ter tentado vender supostos documentos falsos ao milionário egípcio e que provariam o envolvimento da CIA nos acontecimentos de Paris. Isso foi em Outubro de 2000 e, mais tarde - entre Janeiro e Fevereiro de 2001 - Le Winter esteve a viver no meu apartamento de Lisboa. Depois, mudou-se para um outro local onde viveu até Agosto de 2003 e que, por acaso, devido a razões burocráticas, até estava alugado em meu nome.
Em Outubro de 2001, segundo me garantiram na altura, John MacNamara, chefe de segurança do Harrods, esteve à porta do meu prédio à procura de Le Winter. Sem sucesso, uma vez que ele já estava a residir na outra morada. Não vi o homem forte de Al Fayed, pois nesse dia eu estava fora de Lisboa, mas tive a oportunidade de ler mais tarde um processo judicial que correu num tribunal de Los Angeles. Era a queixa de Al Fayed contra os cúmplices norte-americanos de Le Winter, afinal, as pessoas que estariam na origem dos documentos de que o meu "inquilino" fora mero portador aquando a detenção em Viena, em Abril de 1998. Há quase exactos dez anos...



Podem confirmar aqui como John MacNamara declara ter vindo até Lisboa bater à porta de minha casa (o endereço está a negro, assim como a indicação da cor da casa, visto que foi tirada uma foto à fachada e pretendo preservar a minha privacidade)...



O encontro entre o então chefe de segurança do Harrods e Le Winter teve lugar depois no Ritz de Lisboa, onde lhe foi entregue a intimidação do tribunal da Califórnia - o local onde teve início a "aventura" austríaca de Le Winter.
Ao ver hoje o mesmo John MacNamara à porta do tribunal de Londres juntamente com os porta-vozes de Al Fayed, lembrei-me que há certos detalhes da morte da Princesa Diana e do caso Le Winter que nunca chegaram ao público. Mas, eu conheço-os e digo-vos que davam um belo livro. De ficção, é claro!


(MacNamara é o da esquerda...)

O MI6 não matou a Princesa Diana

Hoje foi um dia histórico, embora o facto deva passar despercebido a muita gente. Richard Dearlove, antigo director dos serviços secretos britânicos no exterior, MI6, esteve a testemunhar no inquérito à morte da princesa Diana, facto que representa uma novidade ímpar em relação à exposição pública do "Secret Intelligence Service" (SIS), conforme o próprio explicou:

"(...)
- Well, if you respond to an allegation, you create an expectation that you will always comment or question or answer a question when one is posed about the activities of the service. Therefore, in the interests of national security, the better choice is to say nothing, and that includes denying allegations, even though the allegations may be untrue. So it is a sensible policy which has been followed for a long time and has been endorsed by successive governments.
- Now you are here in part to deny the allegations, which would appear to be a departure from the usual policy.
- I am on this occasion. When matters of let's say grave concern arise, rare exceptions of policy are made, and obviously, in this particular instance in this court, I think one can understand why an exception is being made
(...)"



Como seria de esperar, houve diálogos bem interessantes e relevantes sobre as práticas dos serviços secretos no país da Sua Majestade, que, afinal, não são muito diferentes daquilo se suspeitava:

"(...)
- Can I ask you about how line management operated for people who were posted abroad? I would just like to lay a little bit of ground. We have heard from Sir Michael Jay as he was, Lord Jay now, that there were SIS officers posted to the Paris Embassy and he told us, I think, that it is called a 'station'. Would I be right in thinking that SIS has stations in a number of countries abroad?
- Let us say in a number of countries.
- It would be perhaps rather surprising if they did not?
- I think it would.
- And Paris was one of those where there was an SIS station?
- Yes. In this instance, I think we can acknowledge that.
- I do not think the world will stop rotating on that one, Sir Richard.
(...)
- Now how, in practical terms, did the process work? One imagines that there was an idea, somebody said -- let's take a hypothetical example. Somebody says, 'We need to break into this office to put a bug in there'. It is entirely hypothetical. How does it come up the chain and what is the recording of it and the process?
- There would be a plan written and described from the appropriate section. It would come up through several managerial filters as to whether the proposal was viable. That proposal would also have to include a passage of legal compliance. So there would be a reference as to whether the proposed act would be lawful under an ISA authorisation. When the paperwork was completed, in essence -- and I mean, this would apply, let's say, to an initiative overseas as much as to an initiative that was developed within head office -- and once those papers were completed, they would be signed off by, let's say, the senior regional official. They would come to me for further signature and then they would go down restricted channels to the Foreign Secretary.
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: You have not mentioned the ambassador of whichever place we are talking about.
- MR BURNETT: That was my next point, sir.
- If the proposal was originated in the field overseas, there would have to be a passage in that proposal which reported the ambassador's views, so that the local -- we have used the phrase already -- head of station would have had a discussion with the ambassador and the views of the ambassador would be included within the papers which would be sent by me to the Foreign Secretary.
(...)"

Nada supreeendente foi a negação de que o príncipe Filipe tem pouco contacto com o MI6: "It is completely off the map"...

"(...)
- Now, you are aware, aren't you, that it is suggested that the French security apparatus and the French police and the French medical services and the French pathological services -- I think that is all of the French -- were in on a plot of some sort which would suggest, Sir Richard, that you in MI6 or Prince Philip -- and we will come to him in a moment -- somehow could control the French state. Now I must give you an opportunity to comment on those allegations.
- Well, it is a mischievous and fanciful allegation.
- Can I turn to Prince Philip? Again, so that one understands what is being suggested, stripped to its bare bones, it is that Prince Philip was in a position to direct MI6 operationally and that he did so from Balmoral Castle, with the Prince of Wales' involvement, Lord Fellowes, Lord Jay, various others, and executed a conspiracy which resulted in the deaths of Dodi Al Fayed and the Princess of Wales. I am putting it simply and without any hyperbole. What was Prince Philip's relationship with the Secret Intelligence Service in the mid-1990s, but please cover the whole period if there is any difference?
- Absolutely nothing of substance. I say 'nothing of substance' because I think there were one or two occasions when he visited the service as Her Majesty's consort.
- Now, we have heard -- again, it would come as no surprise to anybody -- that the service would be involved in providing security advice for foreign visits of the Royal Family.
- Occasionally.
- But to the suggestion that --
- But I might say not directly. The security assessments would be gathered through the embassy to which the service might make a contribution.
- So to the suggestion that Prince Philip was an active operational member of MI6, what do you say?
- I can say nothing other than it is utterly ridiculous.
- Is the same true of Prince Charles?
- The same is true of Prince Charles.
- Now, it is suggested -- again, I try to strip it to the bare bones -- that Prince Philip and the intelligence agencies really run this country and that we are not a Parliamentary democracy at all. Again, I must give you an opportunity to comment on an allegation that you, as head of MI6, and no doubt your counterparts in the other agencies are in fact running this country behind the scenes with Prince Philip.
- I do not want to be flippant. I am tempted to say I am flattered, but once again, this is such an absurd allegation. It is difficult to deal with an allegation which is so absurd. It is completely off the map. I cannot think of any other way of saying it.
(...)"

A melhor parte, contudo, foi quando se discutiu o plano do atentado a Milosevic denunciado por um ex-agente do MI6, Richard Tomlinson. O antigo chefe dos serviços secretos confirmou a sua existência e apresentou uma justificação para o facto do mesmo nunca ter sido colocado em prática:

"(...)
- Well, the proposal was essentially rejected -- I would say killed stone dead -- by the officer's line managers on the basis that his idea was out of touch with service practice, service ethos and that it was not a proposal to which any serious consideration would be given.
(...)"

Uma resposta que mereceu uma observação assaz acertada e permitiu recordar um outro plano, este denunciado pelo ex-agente do MI5, David Shayler, que foi negado:

"(...)
- The question arises how, if you are right in saying that SIS does not contemplate assassination, one of its officers could have raised the possibility and committed it to writing in 1992 or 1993.
- A very unusual event, I agree, but the service does not control the thoughts of its officers and did not in this particular instance, clearly. But I think that the immediate reaction of the officer's line management to this suggestion shows a very consistent attitude to the issue of assassination which I have previously described. So the fact that the idea was so categorically rejected at a level immediately above the officer -- you know, it has not gone through stages upwards -- I think
5 indicates very clearly indeed what I have said about SIS's attitude to assassination and, by implication, Her Majesty's Government's attitude to assassination.
- Now, there is a very well-known allegation of planned assassination that I wish to ask you about. It has been suggested widely and publicly that, in February 1996, SIS conspired with one of its Libyan agents to assassinate Colonel Gaddafi. Now, first of all, just to locate that in time, you were head of operations at the time.
- I was indeed head of operations at the time.
- Were you the chief of the service when that allegation emerged publicly?
- Yes, I was.
- Is it true?
- No, it is not true, and I think one should add that -- this is an allegation that was made by a former Security Service officer, David Shayler. It was fully investigated by the Metropolitan Police, who sent a team into SIS. They were given full access, full cooperation, and it was shown as a result of their investigation that Shayler's allegations were without substance.
- Now, Shayler, you say, was a former Security Service officer; that is MI5 --
- MI5.
- -- not MI6, as it happens.
- Not MI6.
- So investigated by the Metropolitan Police?
- An independent police investigation, which was ordered by the Crown Prosecution Service.
(...)"

Finalmente, durante as palavras finais entre o representante legal de Al Fayed, Michael Mansfield, Richard Dearlove e o juiz Scott Baker, introduziu uma ideia que, creio, poderá vir a dar que falar...

"(...)
- The reason I am putting it to you, so that it is clear you see, I want to suggest that if there were elements of the security services who wanted to do something without your knowledge, it is not difficult. It was not difficult then, was it?
- It would be very difficult to do. You used the words, 'to do something'. I am not quite sure what you men by that, but it would be very difficult to do something, if not impossible, as I have described.
LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: But, Mr Mansfield, I thought Mr Al Fayed's whole case, if I can put it that way, is built on the fact that this was not something that was done without the knowledge of those running MI6; this was their scheme.
- MR MANSFIELD: Yes, I appreciate. May I make it very clear, Mr Fayed -- an observation was made yesterday -- has certain beliefs which he has made clear. He is plainly not a member of MI6 or, certainly, the establishment either. He has certain beliefs and I have never at any stage withdrawn any of his beliefs but you will see I have focused very carefully on elements of what he is suggesting that may be true; in other words, for which there is, forensically, evidence to support his beliefs. May I make it perfectly clear that this jury and you, sir, will not be just considering at the end of day in an inquest of this kind whether the beliefs as expressed by Mohamed Al Fayed are supported on every front. There are other possibilities --
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: I am well aware of that --
- MR MANSFIELD: And this is one.
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: The other possibilities have to be supported by evidence. Well, everything has to be supported by evidence.
- MR MANSFIELD: I am only examining with this witness --
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: But there is a limit to how far you can dig on matters on which there is no evidence and not even an assertion.
- MR MANSFIELD: Well, there is evidence here, may I say straightaway and I am not dealing with assertion. We had a witness only this time last week who made it very clear that his belief was that the materials he had were relevant to what happened in Paris. Not only did he have that belief, he had obviously his experience and he went straight to the French authorities with it. Therefore, on the back of that, I am entitled to ask this witness, since there are obvious similarities, as he drew last week, to ask this jury to consider through you the possibility that elements within the security services, which again is consistent with Mohamed Al Fayed's belief, elements within the security services in 1997 were responsible not just for drawing up a plan but the possibility that in fact one or more of them may have been responsible for what happened.
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: So Prince Philip bypassed the top people and went to somebody else?
- MR MANSFIELD: No, sir. I do not have any evidence at the moment and I have made it very clear that there are all sorts of individuals that I have not accused of anything.
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: Well, I have not stopped you yet but I am simply warning you that there is a limit to how far one can go on these things.
- MR MANSFIELD: Well, sir, I have kept it very contained so far and I have been very focused; I have come straight in on what the jury has heard.

Meanwhile, em Londres...

... prossegue o inquérito à morte da Princesa Diana. Há dias, o antigo mordomo de Diana, Paul Burrel, confessou que mentira e hoje, finalmente, chegou a vez de Mohamed Al Fayed falar:




"(...)
- Then, the next point you mention is the blood, isn't it, Mr Al Fayed?
- Yes. What you want -- the whole thing has been that Henri Paul was drunk. Fine. It is proved black and white that the blood been taken was not Henri Paul's blood. The blood been taken from somebody was in the mortuary who had been breathing carbon monoxide by the two pathologists who refused to appear because they know that their argument is false and baloney and it was not facts. What do you want? Can you tell me? Everybody saw and the jury saw the witness, and the professors, the pathologists, the technicians, highly respected, have proved that Henri Paul's blood was not Henri Paul's blood.
- So you believe the results were cooked, as you put it?
- Definitely.
- And deliberately so by Professors Lecomte and Pepin?
- Yes. Why did they refuse to come here...
- Just so that we are clear, Mr Al Fayed, it is your belief that Professors Lecomte and Pepin were, from the very beginning, engaged in a cover-up?
- Definitely, by the French intelligence, because the French intelligence helped the British intelligence to execute the murder, and without their help, without giving all the facilities in the tunnel, switches the camera, doing everything possible to help an MI6 officer to secure the murder.
- That is the whole of the French establishment?
- It is not the French establishment. It is the French intelligence.
- And the police?
- And the French police also.
- And the French medical services, through Lecomte and Pepin?
- The French intelligence and the British intelligence, they have their stooges, their agents, everywhere.
- And that includes Professors Lecomte and Pepin?
- Absolutely.
- I see. The last point that you particularly wanted to emphasise to the jury concerns dark forces.
- Richard Tomlinson told me, a few months after the crash, that he had seen a plot to kill Milosevic in the tunnel, just like my son and Princess Diana. I believe him and I believe the evidence that he gave to the inquest, very convincing, that MI6 assassinates people of great importance and relevance. He believes there is a file which the security service have on me which -- where is that file? He believes that there is a file on the paparazzi member in the pay of security services. This is likely to be James Andanson, who has executed the murder in his own Fiat, pushed the car, and the strobe lights have been used to blind Henri Paul.
- Can I just interrupt you there to check that I understand what you are saying? It is your belief then that James Andanson was driving the Fiat Uno at the time?
- Definitely.
- And that he was later murdered?
- Yes.
- I see.
- He has been later murdered because... for the security service, avoiding that he will again turn against them and say exactly what happened.
- I see.

(...)

- Where we were, Mr Al Fayed, the extent of this conspiracy: Prince Philip at its heart?
- That is right.
- Prince Charles, you said this morning?
- Definitely a participant because he has interests and he wants to get rid of Diana and he would like to marry Camilla.
- Anyone else in the Royal Household?
- But those are the main ones.
- We have not heard this today, but it features in a letter that you wrote in February 2006: the Prime Minister, Tony Blair.
- I do not remember. If you have a copy?
- I do not have a copy but I will read you one paragraph from it. It is a letter that you wrote to the Right Honourable Paul Murphy of the Intelligence and Security Committee. It is dated 14th February 2006. You mention that the security services were acting on the orders of the Royal Family and these are your words 'the Prime Minister and his senior henchmen', and you went on to say this: 'There is equally no doubt in my mind that such a momentous and horrific action would have been directly sanctioned by the Prime Minister.' So can we add him to the list, Mr Al Fayed?
- What are you asking me for? Can you tell me what you are asking now?
- Mr Al Fayed, the list of conspirators; those who are involved in the manner in which I have described in this murderous plot.
- Yes.
- We can add Tony Blair to that list, can we?
- You can, because I am sure he knows what they are going to do, definitely.
- And you say in that letter: 'Not only is Tony Blair involved, but also his senior henchmen.' Now, who did you mean by 'his senior henchmen'?
- Maybe his chief of staff.
- His chief of staff?
- Yes.
- And the Foreign Secretary of the day, Robin Cook, he must have been involved?
- It is a possibility. You can say that the embalming order has to come from someone very high. The Ambassador will not execute such order; only he had been instructed...
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: I think he was in the Far East at the time, wasn't he? I suppose he could have been contacted by telephone.
- Possible.
- MR HORWELL: Lord Fellowes, we heard this morning.
- Yes.
- He was manning a operations centre at the British Embassy and sent messages, I think you have said in the past, to GCHQ?
- Yes, but this is what I have been told. I know these things can happen because he is the Private Secretary of the Queen, right?
- Lord Fellowes we add to the list?
- Yes.
- We heard this morning that Lord Jay should be added to the list; a British Ambassador who knew in advance of the Princess's visit to Paris...
- That is right.
- ... and no doubt played his part in the events that took place. You have said in the past that Lord Jay ordered the embalming to ensure that there would be no evidence to show that Princess Diana was pregnant.
- That is right.
- So we add him to the list. MI5, MI6, CIA and the DGSE, the French intelligence services; we add them to the list?
- Right.
- Judge Stephan...
- Right.
- ... we heard this morning. The French SAMU, the ambulance service and the French doctors; they played their part in ensuring that Princess Diana would die...
- Possibility, yes.
- ... and delayed her arrival at hospital to ensure that she would die?
- Yes, but this is the logic thoughts of taking her to a far away hospital and there was a hospital 10 minutes or 15 minutes from the accident.
- LORD JUSTICE SCOTT BAKER: Have I understood you this morning to say not all of them, but that MI6 would have an agent there among them?
- Possibly ... yes, of course, of course.
- MR HORWELL: And, of course, the French scientists, Professors Lecomte and Pepin...
- Right.
- ... involved?
- Definitely. Why didn't they want to appear as witnesses?"

O que diz Leamas

O Basílio, do Mote para Motim, deixou-me o seguinte comentário no texto sobre David Shayler: "Há dois anos atrás David Shayler e a mulher (tb ex-agente) disseram que havia dedo do MI5 nos atentados de Londres, na morte da Diana e noutros assassinatos. Depois parece que ele começou a passar-se da cabeça...".
Bem, Basílio, que o MI5 colocou o dedo isso é óbvio. Mas Shayler há muito que devia saber que os agentes do serviços secretos não são monges que julgam o que está certo ou errado. John Le Carré já o explicara no "O Espião que Veio do Frio" através do personagem Alec Leamas (Richard Burton na adaptação ao cinema, em 1965): "What the hell do you think spies are? Moral philosophers measuring everything they do against the word of God or Karl Marx? They're not! They're just a bunch of seedy, squalid bastards like me: drunkards, queers, hen-pecked husbands, civil servants playing cowboys and Indians to brighten their rotten little lives. Do you think they sit like monks in a cell, balancing right against wrong?".

Caso Diana - testemunho de Francois Levistre

Já aqui falei do senhor Francois Levistre, que diz ter visto muita coisa na noite em que a princesa Diana morreu. Hoje foi ouvido em Londres: "When I realised that there is this major white flash of the motorbike in front of the Mercedes, in front of the car, I am nearly at the exit of the tunnel and I realise that because I am hearing the noise of the motorbike within the tunnel".

Bem, se calhar o que mais me custaria seria mesmo rapar as sobrancelhas...

Falei várias vezes com David Shayler. Ele estava exilado em Paris porque, em Agosto de 1997, dias antes da morte da princesa Diana, este agente do MI5 denunciou práticas menos correctas dentro dos serviços secretos britânicos.
David fora recrutado em 1992, após ter respondido a um enigmático anúncio de emprego no "The Independent" que dizia apenas "Godot não vem" - seguido de uma morada. Uma das primeiras tarefas foi pesquisar os dados pessoais dos candidatos a governantes do Reino Unido. Obviamente que Tony Blair estava incluído...
Quando, em finais de 1999, rebentou o escândalo dos arquivos Mitrokhine - onde era dito que havia uma lista com o nome de portugueses que espiaram para o KGB -, foi ele quem me garantiu que os nossos serviços secretos, se ainda não tinham os nomes dessa lista, bastava apenas pedi-los aos ingleses...



Passados dez anos, quando os serviços secretos ingleses estão cada vez mais fortes no controle aos cidadãos, Shayler, segundo as palavras da sua namorada, está diferente:"Last summer, I went away for a weekend. When I returned, David had shaved off all his hair and his eyebrows as part of his spiritual evolution. He knew that I had always loved his long, thick hair, so it felt like a personal slap in the face. He was in trouble. He was quick to anger if anyone questioned him. He became obsessive about little details, espoused wacky theories and shunned his family and old friends. His paranoia also escalated".

Como seguir de perto o julgamento do caso da Princesa Diana

Qualquer um de nós pode ler as transcrições das sessões no tribunal de Londres e ter acesso às fotografias e vídeos que são apresentados como prova. A justiça britânica, para surpresa dos indígenas do nosso país, tem destas coisas. Basta para isso ir a este endereço electrónico. Divirtam-se, pois obviamente que não se vai provar nada, mas muitas mais surpresas poderão vir a surgir. Afinal, está previsto que o caso dure seis meses...

Morte de Diana vai a tribunal em Londres... 10 anos depois

Ler na BBC e ver um detalhe vindo da Austrália...

Ainda Diana

Não sei se a morte da Princesa Diana foi acidente porque ainda não se sabe até que ponto a morte do fotógrafo James Andanson está ou não relacionada com os acontecimentos em Paris na noite de 31 de Agosto de 1997...



Também não sabemos até que ponto o testemunho de Francois Levistre é verdadeiro...



Sabemos, isso sim, que a Princesa Diana esteve apaixonada por um médico paquistanês ... E que, provavelmente, estaria grávida dele.

Desta forma, as teorias da conspiração irão sempre existir...

Entrevista com Le Winter na FOCUS 375

Branquear a morte de Diana

A propósito das recentes notícias sobre o relatório do governo britânico a respeito da morte da princesa Diana, que será divulgado amanhã, aqui fica a reacção de alguém que conhece bem o caso, uma vez que até já esteve preso por causa do que aconteceu em Paris em 1997. Trata-se de uma declaração em exclusivo e especialmente dedicada a todos os leitores do "Para Mim Tanto Faz". É uma espécie de prenda de Natal antecepida e, já agora, aproveito para desejar um Feliz Natal e um bom Ano Novo.

Outro que também é um grande profissional...

A revista italiana "Chi" publicou na capa da semana passada a última foto da princesa Diana. E disse que tal era uma "Esclusiva Mondiale", que deverá querer significar - no meu fraco italiano - qualquer coisa como um "exclusivo mundial"... Enfim, os italianos até ganharam recentemente uma taça do mundo, portanto devem bem saber do que falam quando se referem a "mondiale"...



Li ainda aqui que o responsável da publicação justificou esta escolha da foto assim:

"Chi editor Umberto Brindani said he had published the picture for the 'very simple reason' that it has never been seen before".

Se igualmente bem compreendo a língua inglesa, "never been seen before" significará "nunca antes vista"...
Acontece que eu já tinha visto aquela foto há muito tempo!...
É que a mesma fora publicada na capa da revista portuguesa "TV Guia" no fim de Abril de 2004 - "Aprile 2004" - , e isto após ter sido divulgada pela cadeia de televisão norte-americana CBS...





Este editor italiano, Umberto Brindani, é um outro grande profissional...

Tudo pelo povo

Drogas, Diana e outras coisas que tais em "We the People".

"Faster!... Faster!..."

Parece que só faltava dizer isto sobre a morte de Diana...
E, prontos!, está assim resolvido o caso...
Conheci Manuel Cerdán há um ano durante um curso de jornalismo de investigação em Espanha. Este é um homem que não teve problemas em sair de uma boa posição no diário de referência "El Mundo" para a direcção da revista tablóide "Interviu", uma das poucas a fazer jornalismo de investigação... Agora, esta ansiedade demonstrada em querer fazer enterrar com isto a conspiração Diana é algo que me desiludiu...
