Were the Porugese Police right to stop wasting the Portugese tax payers money?

Question

when you consider that the child's family have done nothing but hindered the investigation from the start.

Answer 1

Yes, an investigation can only go on for so long, the PJ obviously dont feel that they need to continue. This is their tax payer's money so obviously they have decided to shelve this particular investigation at this time until further information comes to light.

They only have so much money for their resources so that's the bottom line for any public police force.
