Hewlett, 64, is terminally ill with cancer and is now said to be too unwell for an interview.
Retired UK policemen Dave Edgar and Arthur Cowley, who flew to Germany to speak to him, said they were “very disappointed” with the lawyer’s behaviour…
“He is not a suspect but I was keen to interview him because of his failing health. I have tried over the past weeks to arrange this via his lawyer in Germany.
“These negotiations have been difficult for reasons which I do not want to go into detail about.
“Mr Hewlett’s condition has of course been deteriorating during these negotiations.
“I travelled to Germany yesterday in a final effort to interview Raymond Hewlett. Regrettably that interview is not possible.
“From information provided by his lawyer and other sources it is obvious that his health is such that any meaningful interview would not be possible.”
Would a man on strong pain killers be a credible witness?
