And did you find any bloodstains?

A man in my position doesn't go crawling about floors... with a... with a microscope looking for bloodstains.

That is the jacket found in the prisoner's flat, which I handed to our lab to test for bloodstains.

He was transferred to section 209 of Evin, reportedly run by the secret service. There, he saw bloodstains on the floor.

Inspector, you stated that the bloodstains on the prisoner's jacket were analysed, as was the blood of Mrs. French, and they were both found to be of group O.

Inspector, granted that the cut on the wrist was caused by that knife, is there anything to show whether it was an accident or done deliberately after the murder to account for the bloodstains?

But the prospect of war in Europe now seems like a remote threat, and the varnish of the EU s past success seems to have faded, even to those who have not forgotten the bloodstains beneath.
