Have You seen anything suspicious related to the disappearance of Madeleine or if you believe you know where Madeleine is being concealed or hidden?

Anne Harrison, Detective Chief Superintendent from the NPIA said: "We also want anyone who took part in the initial search for Madeleine that took place before the Portuguese police arrived at the scene of her abduction but who have not yet come forward to contact us on 0800 096 1233."

"Similarly if anyone out there thinks they may have seen something suspicious or have suspicions as to who may have taken Madeleine or believe they may have seen her then ring us now.

"Finally to anyone who believes they may know where Madeleine is being concealed or hidden. We do not know the reason why she was taken but the Portuguese authorities have searched extensively around Praia da Luz and she has not been found.

It is possible she is being hidden or concealed in some way and if you know where then by now you may have realised it is in everybody's interest that she is returned to her family".
Our daughter Madeleine was abducted on 3rd May 2007 in Praia da Luz, Portugal, 9 days before her 4th birthday. She was taken from our holiday apartment where she was sleeping with her younger brother and sister whilst we were dining 50 yards away. Despite a massive investigation led by the Portuguese police and supported by the British police, we still do not know who has taken her, why she was taken or where she is. In addition, private investigators based in Spain are now following up any leads regarding Madeleine’s disappearance. Do you have any photos or videos?

The documentary reconstructed that critical night using eye witness testimony and where possible, the actual people involved such as Jane, who believes she actually saw Madeleine being carried away, but at the time, didn’t immediately assume she was witnessing an abduction; a fact that she finds hard to deal with now because she of course realises that her intervention at that moment could’ve meant that Madeleine was at this minute safe at home with her family. That must be a terrible burden for her to bear and it was heart rending to see her weep as she watched the actor playing Madeleine’s abductor carrying a child…

Cop sues McCanns as He Tries to reopen the investigation


THE former police chief who led the hunt for Madeleine McCann in Portugal plans to sue parents Kate and Gerry for defamation.

Goncalo Amaral, 49, has hired a team of lawyers to prepare an action against the two doctors.

And the cop, dropped from the inquiry in October 2007 for criticising British police, says he will also seek damages from the McCann's spokesman Clarence Mitchell. His action comes weeks after the McCanns revealed they were suing Amaral over a book he wrote.

It claimed Madeleine, aged three when she disappeared in Praia da Luz in May 2007, died in an accident and her parents, both 40, concealed her death.

Amaral was found guilty recently of falsifying evidence in another missing child case.



The McCanns said: "Any legal action will be defended."

The ex-inspector Gonçalo Amaral, who was responsible for the case of British girl Madeleine McCann, said Wednesday that it will terminate the child's parents and try to reopen the investigation into the mysterious disappearance, two years ago.

Amaral was the chief of detectives responsible for investigating the disappearance of Madeleine on May 3, 2007, in southern Portugal, to resign, months later, without being able to prove the involvement of parents in the hypothetical girl.

The parents of Madeleine, Kate and Gerry McCann, who always denied any involvement with the disappearance of the girl, also expressed its intention last month to take Amaral to court due to allegations made against them in a book published last year.

In statements to the Portuguese newspaper "Daily News," Amaral said that in the fourth to examine the research done in 2007 for the case, filed in July 2008 for lack of evidence on the fate of Madeleine, is reopened.

"We need to discuss what was done and what is left to do," said the former inspector, who retired two years early, after renouncing his work in the Judicial Police.

Antonio Cabrita, one of the lawyers of former policeman, said the complaint against the couple McCann, who also include the spokesman of them, Clarence Mitchell, will be raised by accusations of slander and insult the good name of Amaral.


The former Portuguese inspector was sentenced on May 22, a year and a half, which will not have to meet - unless committing another crime - for falsehoods in a case related to the disappearance of an English girl in 2004.

The sentence against Amaral, with his lawyers to appeal, was imposed by "Joana case, a girl of 8 years disappeared whose mother confessed, under alleged torture of several policemen, have it killed.

Meanwhile, if Madeleine is still a mystery two years after the disappearance of the girl's apartment by parents in Praia da Luz in the Algarve, where she slept with two other brothers minors.

There was a turn when the couple of British doctors suspect was declared by the disappearance of her daughter.

However, McCann was relieved when the suspicions of Justice closed the English summary of the case on July 21, 2008, and rejected - for lack of evidence - the police's arguments, which pointed to an accidental death of the child and the blind body of parents.

McCanns win MEPs' backing for abduction alert system

Gerry and Kate McCann have won the backing of MEPs for a Europe-wide child abduction alert system which they believe could have helped find their missing daughter Madeleine.

A majority of members of the European Parliament have now signed a declaration calling for the introduction of the so-called Amber Alert system, which would involve much greater co-operation between countries when a child is reported missing.
The McCanns began their campaign after discovering that border officials in Spain were not told about Madeleine's abduction from a Portuguese holiday resort until 12 hours after the alarm was raised, giving kidnappers ample time to flee abroad.
Under the Amber Alert system police forces in neighbouring countries would be alerted immediately to a child's disappearance and descriptions or pictures of the child could be quickly circulated to the media. A similar system in America is credited with returning 400 children to their parents in five years.
For a declaration lodged in the European Parliament to become a resolution, a simple majority of 393 MEPs must sign it, and today the tally reached 398, meaning it will now be sent to the EU children's commissioner with a recommendation that it is implemented.
Gerry and Kate McCann said in a statement: "This is wonderful news. We would like to thank each and every one of the MEPs who backed this declaration. By doing so they are helping to make Europe a safer place for children.
"Hopefully this will also mean that far fewer families have to suffer the pain that we are continuing to endure. We now urge the commission to act swiftly in taking forward a Europe-wide missing child alert structure."
Edward McMillan-Scott, the Tory MEP for Yorkshire and Humber who helped the McCanns lobby MEPs during two visits to Strasbourg, said: "I'm delighted a majority of MEPs have now backed this important initiative. Now it has real impetus and hopefully it will help save children who have been abducted, as a similar system has done in America."
A final decision on whether to implement the scheme, and the details of how it would work, are now in the hands of the EU children's commissioner, Jacques Barrot, but the McCanns are hopeful the scheme will be up and running within one to two years.
The couple, together with their twins Sean and Amelie, are currently enjoying their first family holiday since Madeleine's disappearance in Praia da Luz in May last year, a few days before her fourth birthday.

Code Madeleine launched to keep children Safe

A new initiative backed by Madeleine McCann's parents will be launched to help keep children safe on holiday.The six point plan - named Code Madeleine - outlines what parents should do if their child goes missing.The code - similar to the Code Adam scheme in the US which is named after abducted six-year-old Adam Walsh - was developed by the Federation of Tour Operators, the Association of British Travel Agents and the News of the World who will launch the plan in tomorrow's paper.The objective of Code Madeleine is to trigger a system of securing premises and systematically searching for a missing child in the critical hours immediately after they are reported missing.Madeleine's parents Gerry and Kate McCann are supporting the scheme."Kate and I fully endorse the Code Madeleine scheme," Mr McCann said."Kate and I hope that this new code will help protect British families when they are on holiday."The six points are:Hotel management or holiday company staff to immediately obtain a photograph and detailed description of the missing child, and to assist parents in liaising with the police.Designated employee to page Code Madeleine via nearest in-house telephone - implementing the procedure of circulating the photograph and communicating a detailed description of the missing child throughout the hotel.Hotel staff, supported by holiday company representatives on the premises, to assist in search of public areas and to monitor entrances and exits from the premises.If the missing child is not found within 10 minutes of initial search of public areas, parent to take decision to notify local police. Hotel management or holiday company staff to assist.Hotel management or holiday company staff to use best endeavours to ensure any suspected crime scene area is isolated and kept free of contamination until police arrive.If the child is found accompanied by someone other than a parent or legal guardian, reasonable efforts to delay their departure will be used without putting the child, staff, or visitors at risk. Police will be notified and given details about the person accompanying the child.Holiday firms will now be asked to sign up to the code and train staff on what to do if a child goes missing.Andy Cooper, director general of the Federation of Tour Operators, said: "All of our major members have agreed to support Code Madeleine and adopt the six-point plan to help make children safer while on holiday."Code Madeleine launchedThe six point plan - named Code Madeleine - outlines what parents should do if their child goes missing.Keep an eye on your children with GPSRoSPA: Let children learn by taking risksChildren 'missing out on crucial friendships'Related sitesBring Madeleine home'We will NEVER give up looking for Madeleine.'
