To make this stick, one must assume they hid body for 5 weeks while everyone was looking for her, in Portugal, in Summer, in place where body did not smell, then transported her while everyone was watching them.

BS.

I tend to agree with you. I need to hear more details.

25 days, not 35 days.

Bodies that small can be wrapped very tightly in plastic and can be transported quite easily.

Not everyone was watching them - the police were focused on other suspects and the press had subsided somewhat by then - they were not being watched around the clock, but came and went as they pleased after the initial week of publicity. At that point the press were more interested in trying to squeeze every last detail from the police and shadowing the various suspects whose names came up.

If this is actually what happened, the parents must have Mensa level intelligence. I wouldn't have a clue on how to hide a body for FIVE weeks and then dispose of it sight unseen in a FOREIGN country.
