ORANJESTAD(AAN): Recently, the Public Ministry let it be known that the investigation into the disappearance of Natalee Holloway continues.
The investigative team, under the lead of chief prosecutor Karen Janssen, is operating in three areas.
Witnesses have been heard, the investigation is now being analyzed, while the matter of the tape that was transmitted on the Dr. Phil show is being investigated.
Recently Beth Twitty, the mother of Natalee Holloway, was heard as a witness. Among other things, Twitty was asked the details of the fact that she arrived to Aruba very fast, after the disappearance of her daughter.
They also asked her to explain the public accusations she made.
The investigative team is also interviewing other witnesses, with people they have interviewed previously, as well as new witnesses.
Apart from this, other clues are being analyzed and investigated. The whole file on the case is being reviewed constantly, in order to not miss anything that can be investigated.
From this analysis, certain aspects have come out that have to be investigated.
Related to this, American authorities have been asked for help with the interrogation of some American persons.
This relates to people who have been interrogated, just after the disappearance of Natalee Holloway, but from which the Public Ministry wants to know certain other things.
Recently a tape was shown on the Dr. Phil show, where suspect Deepak Kalpoe made certain declarations which could indicate his culpability in this case.
The Public Ministry requested this tape and sent it to the Forensic Institute of Rijswijk Holland for further investigation.
The results are not yet known. With this ‘update’, the Public Ministry wants to show that they are on top of the case still, contrary to other insinuations.
