The group of friends of Kate and Gerry McCann dubbed the "Tapas 7" - as they were dining together at the time of 3 year-old Madeleine McCann's alleged abduction - have refused to return to Portugal for a reconstruction of the incident for fear they would be forced to FRAME the parents, claim a newspaper.
The 30,000-page dossier reveals how the Tapas 7 decided not to go back to Portugal for a "reconstruction" in May this year because Portuguese police would not give them reassurances they would not be arrested.
The group were baffled as to why police were calling them back for the re-enactment a full year after Madeleine went missing, and demanded to be told how it would help the inquiry.
In an email to police chief Paulo Rebelo in April, the McCanns' friend Rachel Oldfield wrote: "We are still very uncertain of the motives in organising such a re-enactment.
"We feel we would be making ourselves and our families extremely vulnerable by returning."
