<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">A Swiss father-of-three is being interviewed by police today after it emerged he was the mystery man seen driving from the camping ground with a girl who looked like Maddie McCann days after she vanished in 2007.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">Karsten Mayer, 41, is a German-speaking Swiss native who lives near the capital Bern whose own daughter was in the family car and who, he says, was mistaken for the missing toddler by a British eyewitness.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">The potential sighting came three days after Madeleine was abducted from Praia da Luz in Portugal, a few hours drive away.</span><br />

Sighting: A blonde girl identical to Madeleine McCann was supposedly seen with a German family at the Cabopino campsite on Spain's Costa del Sol (pictured) just three days after the British toddler went missing five years ago</div>
</div>
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">It emerged yesterday that British detectives investigating her disappearance have been told a German family paid extra after arriving at the campsite with one more child than expected on May 6, 2007, according to The Sun.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">But Mr Mayer, who was spotted with the blonde girl, has since insisted the youngster was not Madeleine, and was infact his own daughter.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">Mr Mayer also pledged to speak to police to clear himself of any connection to missing Madeleine following the media reports yesterday.</span><br />

Missing: Madeleine was abducted from Praia da Luz in Portugal, a few hours drive away from the Spanish campsite, in May 2007</div>
</div>
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">'I am turning myself over to police,' said Mr Mayer, a self employed businessman, 'before these media reports get me arrested.' </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">He told Blick, Switzerland's biggest daily paper; 'I did have a girl around about Maddie's age in the car - she was my own daughter who also happens to have blonde coloured hair and was about the same age as Maddie at the time.' </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">Karen Sisson, 49, the British woman who reported the sighting to police, said the girl 'looked groggy' and seemingly 'alienated' from the family she was with. She said the car had German plates that began with BE.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">But the BE registration for the town and district of Beckum in western Germany went out of use 38 years ago. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">Journalists in Switzerland used the number of the car to trace Mr Mayer to his home near Bern - BE standing for cars registered to the city and surrounding area.</span><br />
<div class="clear">
</div>
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">Mr Mayer added; 'I was at the camping ground with my family. It is really unbelievable that I am some kind of suspect because we read about Maddie's disappearance on a notice at the campsite. We were shocked and we felt for the parents.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">'It is quite possible that my daughter appeared distant. She was tired after a very long road trip.</span><br />

G. Amaral: Ameaçado de morte<br />
Gonçalo Amaral recusou-se ontem a fornecer a sua actual morada à juíza do Tribunal de Faro, alegando ter “recebido ameaças de morte”. O ex-inspector da PJ foi ouvido no julgamento de Aragão Correia e António Dores, acusados de difamação.<br />
<br />

<br />
G. Amaral: Threatened with Death<br />
Gonçalo Amaral yesterday refused to provide his current address to the Judge of the Court of Faro, claiming to have "received death threats." Former PJ inspector was heard at the trial of <u>Aragao Correa</u> and Antonio Dores, accused of defamation.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime;">For those who do not know, the McCanns are heavily involved with <u>Aragao Correa</u> ,they use him to discredit Gonçalo Amaral...</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong><span style="color: red;"><u>And if I may draw your attention to a very serious comment left on the MMF by a blogger.</u></span></strong><br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><u><span style="color: lime;">Quote</span></u></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: white;">It's not Internet nutters that Dr Amaral should be worrying about. Internet nutters are people who hide behind a pseudonym and hurl abuse at those who dare to express a different opinion. Such nutters are basically cowards - if they could kill by right-clicking the mouse, no doubt they would, but to actually come out into the real world and physically kill someone - IMO highly unlikely. What is more likely is that there is an organization behind most of the Internet nutters in the pro parents camp. IMO the purpose of such an organization is what is commonly referred to as reputation management. There are grounds to assume that the majority of the nutters in the pro parents camp probably work for one or more reputation management organizations. This also explains the many "Road to Damascus" moments of erstwhile prominent antis. Such persons, or perhaps they aren't real persons at all but personas, were initially planted in the (for want of a better word) anti camp. Their purpose was to foment critical discussion and record important information in order to identify trends, so that strategies could be developed by reputation management to combat them. IMO the 3As could have been established under the auspices of such a reputation management organization in order to concentrate the anti activity in one place - anti activity which was difficult to control on the Mirror website and being on the website of a national daily newspaper, too accessible to too many people. Thus getting the Mirror site closed down and concentrating activities in one place, made it easy to monitor what was going on and keep it under control. Over the past 5 years it has become clear that there is far more going on behind the scenes than would conceivably be the case if the disappearance of Madeleine McCann were 'simply' a matter of the disappearance of a small child, whether she was abducted or accidentally died or whatever. In the past I have always tended to discount any kind of cover up or powerful conspiracy, but my own "Road to Damascus" moment came when I experienced the prominent member of Scotland Yard heading the so-called review, sitting on a sofa in a TV studio regurgitating the same old same old that we have been hearing and reading for the past 5 years inspired by - reputation management. But it's not the reputation management people that Dr. Amaral should fear either; imo it's whoever is employing their services. The longer this goes on and the closer he gets to revealing the truth, the greater the danger he faces. To date they have tried everything to silence him and if one looks at the lengths to which they have already gone to discredit him and break his resolve, it is clear that he is up against some extremely powerful forces indeed. Only a fool would discount the possibility that eliminating Dr Amaral is the final option if all else fails, especially as all else is starting to look close to failing. </span></strong><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em><strong>4 years ago</strong>.....Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCanns, reacted yesterday with amazement at the declarations of the taxi-driver. “The declarations of Mr. Castela are false. They are a perfect nonsense. He can only be mistaken when he says that at that time he transported Kate and Madeleine with three men”, he said, underlining the fact of being several independent witnesses who place Madeleine's parents in a completely different place. “How is that possible, if at 20h35 several witnesses say that Kate and Gerry were sitting down on a table of the Tapas restaurant”, he questioned. Clarence doubts of the intentions of the taxi-driver. “It astonishes me that only now, ten months later, he talks about this. These are declarations that only cause pain to Kate and Gerry", he said, advancing that that the McCann's daughter has no facial twitches.<br />“The only sign to report is the one she has in the eye.”<br /><br /><strong>Also 4 years ago</strong> in The Telegraph.....But the McCanns spokesman Clarence Mitchell told the newspaper: "We are dismissing this primarily because the timings are entirely wrong."<br /><br />Roll forward 4 years to <strong>May 2nd 2012.</strong>.....McCann family spokesman Clarence Mitchell said: "It is clearly deeply shocking that [Mr Castela] now tells us he has not been interviewed once by a detective.<br />"This is exactly the sort of thing that needs to be looked at in the investigative review now being carried out by the Metropolitan Police<br /><br />I think everyone can see very clearly from the facts!!!</em></span></div>

<span class="storyTop "><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>For two years, the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann has charted an erratic course from Leicestershire to Morocco in its efforts to trace her whereabouts. Yesterday, its focus moved to a German hospital where a convicted British paedophile is being treated for throat cancer.</em></span></span><br />
<div class="body ">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Raymond Hewlett, 64, who is wanted in connection with at least two sexual assaults in England and Ireland, emerged as the latest "individual of interest" to private investigators hired by Kate and Gerry McCann after it was revealed he was living with his family an hour's drive from Praia da Luz, the Portuguese resort where the three-year-old disappeared on 3 May 2007.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The former Scots Guard, who has convictions for the abduction and indecent assault, including attempted rape, of girls in Britain dating back to 1972, did not feature on a list of paedophiles with links to Portugal drawn up in the aftermath of the disappearance.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The Independent understands that the Briton, described by detectives as "cunning" and a "danger to children" was questioned during the initial inquiry but discounted after providing an alibi.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Two British investigators leading the McCanns' investigation are in Germany to speak to Hewlett amid suggestions from two police forces that he could be extradited to Britain to be questioned about unconnected sex attacks.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The twist comes shortly after the second anniversary of Madeleine's disappearance and her family's subsequent "awareness campaign", funded by donors and £1m in libel payments received by the McCanns and their friends, to try to ensure her case is not forgotten.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The McCanns marked the occasion with a series of media interviews and by issuing a computer-generated image of how their daughter would now look, aged six, in an attempt to gain new leads.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Yesterday, the gaunt features of Hewlett, propped up in a hospital bed, propelled the case back into the headlines.</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Hewlett, who was travelling Europe and North Africa in a motorhome with his German wife and six children in 2007, was pictured on the front page of the Daily Mirror with his assertion that he was innocent of any involvement in Madeleine's disappearance.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Pictures of the long-haired Hewlett, who has variously worked on fishing trawlers and as a fairground operator, were printed next to artist's impressions of a long-haired man spotted outside the McCann's apartment .</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Clarence Mitchell, the former BBC journalist who is the family's spokesman, was careful to manage expectations, confirming only that Hewlett was of "operational" interest to its investigation headed by former Detective Inspector Dave Edgar and former Detective Sergeant Arthur Cowley.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The officers, who have experience in "cold case" reviews, were hired by the Find Madeleine Fund to re-examine leads from the initial investigation.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Mr Mitchell said: "This is one line of inquiry ... Kate and Gerry are fully aware of the development and have been for a little while."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>It is understood new information on Hewlett, originally from Blackpool, Lancashire, emerged after the latest media appeal by Madeleine's parents.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The Daily Mirror said attention was drawn to the Briton by a couple who met him while in Portugal, where he had been selling second-hand goods while touring camp sites and towns.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Hewlett insisted he was 30 miles from Praia da Luz at the time of the abduction, telling the newspaper: "I know exactly where I was. I wasn't anywhere near there [Praia da Luz]. I've done nothing wrong, nothing, nothing. " Hewlett is understood to have drifted around Europe, avoiding outstanding arrest warrants, after a string of convictions in Britain, including the abduction and sexual assault of a neighbour's daughter in 1972 and an attack in 1978 when he put a gun to the head of a 14-year-old girl during an attempted rape.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>A spokeswoman for West Yorkshire Police said: "We are seeking him in connection with an indecent assault in 1975."</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>n The disgraced former Portuguese police chief who previously led the inquiry into Madeleine McCann's disappearance has been convicted of perjury.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Goncalo Amaral was given an 18-month suspended sentence by a court in Faro, Portugal. He was one of five officers charged over an alleged attack on the mother of another missing girl. Amaral was convicted of falsifying documents, the Correio da manha reported.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The McCanns are taking legal action for defamation over Amaral's "entirely unfounded claims" in the media, which included the allegation that Madeleine was dead and that her parents were involved in concealing her body.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em><span style="color: red;"><u><b>Old habits: Retired police on the case</b> </u></span></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>*After a long career pursuing villains in the name of the law and public service, many might expect Britain's police officers to spend their retirement as far away as possible from the dogged pursuit of wrongdoing.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Increasingly, that is far from the case. Rather than reaching for a set of golf clubs, newly-retired detectives and their uniformed counterparts are entering the nebulous and lucrative world of private investigation to deploy their skills tracking down debtors, countering industrial espionage and accepting cases that have baffled regular law enforcement bodies.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The latter scenario is the one that currently confronts the Alpha Investigations Group, the company headed by former detectives Dave Edgar, 52, and Arthur Cowley, 57, pictured right, which has been employed since last year by the Find Madeleine Fund. The two men, who between have more than 60 years experience in the Royal Ulster Constabulary and Merseyside Police respectively, are part of a growing body of professional police officers whose skills are in demand in the private sector for work that ranges from threats to the security of large corporations to pursuing missing funds through tax havens.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>The Association of British Investigators (ABI), which represents about 500 companies, estimates that 70 per cent of employees in the industry are former police officers with the remainder recruited from the legal or technology sectors.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Peter Heims, a veteran investigator with more than 50 years experience, said: "It is a natural progression for a lot of police officers. You do 20 or 25 years service and come out of the force with time and a desire for a second career. The skills you acquire as a detective or a uniformed officer are more and more in demand."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>According to ABI estimates, there are about 10,000 private eyes in Britain with the £1.5bn industry growing at about five per cent a year. In the meantime, it seems customers such as Kate and Gerry McCann are reassured by the no-nonsense approach of the likes of Mr Edgar and Mr Cowley. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Speaking earlier this month, Mr Edgar, a former detective inspector, said: </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>"You don't start an investigation in Morocco or Spain or France or even Lisbon. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>This offence happened in Praia da Luz.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>That is where I think the answer is."</em></span><br />

<div class="article-date">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>May 24 2009 Russell Myers </em></span></div>
<div class="article-date">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Madeleine McCann suspect Raymond Hewlett is ready to take a LIE DETECTOR test to prove his innocence in the case.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>The convicted paedophile has carried out a string of vile attacks on children but denies any link to Maddie's disappearance.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>But police face a race against time to establish the truth, as last night doctors were battling to keep Hewlett alive after complications following a cancer op.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>The fiend, 64, was said to have suffered massive internal bleeding, with a source adding: "His condition might worsen at any time which could end his life."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>As Hewlett lay critical in hospital, his German wife Mariana Schmucker, 33 - mum to their six children - challenged Maddie's parents Gerry and Kate to come to see her.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>She said: "I know about my Raymond's past and it is forgotten. He is a changed man. I know he didn't take Maddie.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"He is a very sick man and has said to me he will do anything to prove he is innocent - even take a lie detector test.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><u>"Let the parents of Madeleine come here and ask him face-toface if he had anything to do with their child going missing.</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"My husband has nothing to do with little Madeleine. He's an innocent man and he'll prove it not anyone."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Mariana shares a squalid twobedroom flat - overlooking a kindergarten - with Hewlett and their children.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><strong><u>Drifter</u></strong></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>It is just a few miles from where the suspect now lies in University Hospital, in Aachen, Germany.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Again denying any link to Maddie's abduction by her husband, Mariana said: <u>"These are lies all lies</u>. I know my husband more than anyone in this world and I will tell you he has done nothing wrong.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"Those police should be looking for the real man who took that little girl and not Raymond, he's a sick man, a very sick man." Former soldier turned drifter Hewlett had been living near Praia de Luz in Portugal when Maddie vanished from her family's holiday apartment in May 2007.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>By the time he was tracked to Aachen, near the Belgian border, this month he was already seriously ill with lung cancer.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>But British police still want to interview him about a sexual assault on a child in West York-shire in 1975, and the murder of 11-year-old Lesley Molseed that same year.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Hewlett served 12 months for abducting a 12-year-old girl, knocking her out with paint stripper and raping her in Todmorden, West Yorkshire, in 1972.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>In 1978, he was jailed for four years after holding a 14-year-old girl and putting a gun to her head.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Last night, in a new twist, a British couple who first raised suspicions about Hewlett over missing Maddie a year ago claimed police had not taken them seriously until now.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Alan Thompson, 56, and his wife Cindy, 47, from Peterborough, Cambs, had met Hewlett while on holiday in Portugal.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Cindy told The People: "We cannot talk in detail about the police inquiry, but let's just say we are hoping they take this seriously now.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"We are utterly confused about the delay. It's a worry for us and it must be worse for the McCanns.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Alan said: "I only hope it is not too late." The McCanns' spokesman Clarence Mitchell, said the family's own investigators also wanted to speak to Hewlett, and to the Thompsons.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>He said: "Mr Hewlett has denied any involvement in Madeleine's abduction.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"Our investigators hope he will see sense and co-operate by giving them whatever information needed so they can eliminate him from the investigation.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"It's clear the man is ill and it is clear he has information that our investigators need."</em></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Philip Bigley talked to Kate and Gerry about dealing with the trauma and uncertainty of having a missing loved one.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>A friend of the McCanns said last night: "Although their experiences are different, they have both gone through the trauma of losing someone very close.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"Philip felt he could offer some advice. They found his words comforting and extremely helpful. It was an emotional meeting.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><u>"It was good to be able to have a discussion with someone who has been through something similar.</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"Gerry felt he could talk quite openly and candidly and he found the conversation comforting. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><u>It gave both him and Kate the feeling they are not the only ones to go through an ordeal like this."</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Civil engineer Ken was kidnapped with two Americans in Baghdad in September 2004. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>The Bigley family endured three weeks of uncertainty as kidnappers made a series of demands. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><u>Finally the al-Qaeda group beheaded Ken, 62, filming the execution.</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Philip broke off from a holiday in the Algarve to spend an afternoon with Kate and Gerry. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>He met the couple at their Praia da Luz villa at the weekend.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>A source close to Philip, from Liverpool, said: "He really feels for the McCanns and what they are going through.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"He knows how much talking helps and thought he could offer some support.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em> He also knows what it is like to be in the media spotlight during a difficult time."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Writing about the meeting on his internet blog, heart specialist Gerry, of Rothley, Leics, said: <u>"He came to offer us a different type of support. He has been through an ordeal involving one of his family.</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>"It was good to talk about our emotions, the pressures and coping strategies that we use in an ongoing trauma,<u> with someone who has experienced a tragic event like ours."</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em><u>Shortly after his brother was murdered,</u> Philip, 52, talked about the "agony" of not knowing what had happened to him.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>He said: "We experienced three long weeks of waiting and agony. The horror of the final days will haunt us for ever."</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Like Gerry, Philip lobbied politicians including the Prime Minister to do what they could to help.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Madeleine, four, was snatched from her bed in Praia da Luz on May 3.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em> <u>Investigators are still waiting for test results on specks of blood found in the McCanns' apartment.</u></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Fresh police searches are expected to take place in and around the resort within the next 24 hours. </em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>A number of witnesses are also going to be interviewed again.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Officers have been granted new search warrants valid until tonight.</em></span></div><br />

<div class="article-icon-links-container"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><!-- google_ad_section_start(name=s2) --><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is more than 16 years since Ben Needham vanished from a Greek holiday island in a case as baffling as that of Madeleine McCann.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yesterday police made a fresh attempt to solve the mystery by releasing a photofit of how he may look as his 18th birthday approaches later this month.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ben was 21 months old when he disappeared near his grandparents' farmhouse in Kos in 1991.</span><br />

<div id="ArtContentImgBodyC" style="width: 470px;"><img alt="" border="1" height="582" src="http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/10_02/BenNeedham5PA_468x582.jpg" width="468" /> Police have created this new impression of Ben as they believe he would look now</div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Using computer technology, the Metropolitan Police has created the new image of Ben using pictures of his relatives when they were 18. A similar photofit was issued when he was 13.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">His mother Kerry Grist, 35, said: "It was heart wrenching when I saw the picture. He will be a young man."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mrs Grist, who has remarried and has a 12-year-old daughter Leighanna, said: "All I want is to see Ben again so that he knows the truth. I want him to know that I am his mother and he wasn't abandoned or anything like that."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mrs Grist, an office worker from Sheffield, said the authorities had quickly lost interest in her case.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"Madeleine's parents are middle class people with important jobs and seemed to have had a publicity machine behind them straight away," she added.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">His grandparents, Christine and Eddie Needham, described at the time how they just could not find him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The disappearance sparked an international hunt and although the Greek police logged up to 200 possible sightings, he has never been found.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rewards have been offered, DNA tests have been taken and artists have been regularly employed to reconstruct what Ben would look like at various stages as the years went by.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Four years ago a private investigator restarted the search on behalf of the Needham family.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There have been a number of theories put forward to explain what happened to Ben.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the months and years after he disappeared, the most common was that he had been snatched by gypsies.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Other possibilities were that Ben was taken for adoption by a non-Greek family, perhaps in Scandinavia, Australia or the United States.</span><br />

<div class="article-icon-links-container"></div><!-- google_ad_section_start(name=s2) --><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The mother of a toddler who disappeared in Greece almost 16 years ago spoke today of how the Madeleine McCann case had revived memories of her own trauma.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kerry Grist, whose son Ben Needham was 21 months old when he vanished from the island of Kos in 1991 and has never been found, said the girl's mother would "feel like her heart has been ripped out".</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And she admitted it was hard to put trust in a foreign police force that "doesn't understand our ways" - though she added that the Portuguese force appeared better than the Greek.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Although the Greek police logged up to 200 possible sightings of Ben - who she believes is still alive after being snatched "to order" for a childless couple - he has never been found.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Speaking about yesterday's appeal, she told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "It was like a mirror image: the look on her face, the fear, the worry, everything.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"It was like seeing myself 15 years ago.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"She is going to have a lot of different emotions: she is going to be very frightened of not knowing what's happened to Madeleine, very confused. She will just feel like her heart has been ripped out."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Asked what message she had for Mrs McCann, she said:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"The only things I can try to advise her on are to stay strong, stay in control of everything - the police investigation, the media side of things... get as much support from family and friends as she possibly can and just keep going."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She went on: "There are language barriers. Obviously the Portuguese police and the Greek police won't be as well trained as our police.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"It is very, very difficult to put all your trust and faith into somebody that's foreign, doesn't understand our culture, doesn't understand our ways.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"But from what I've seen from the television, they seem to be doing a lot better job than they did in Ben's case."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She said that it "didn't enter our heads at all" initially that Ben might have been abducted.</span><br />

</span><br />
<div class="article-icon-links-container"></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The disappearance of three-year-old Madeleine McCann has echoes of the tragic case of Ben Needham, who went missing in Greece in 1991.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ben was just 21 months old when he disappeared on the island of Kos where he was staying with his family.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Despite a long running campaign by mother, he has never been found.</span><br />
<div class="ArtInlineReadLinks narrow"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong>More....</strong> </span></div><div class="ArtInlineReadLinks narrow"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />

</ul></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kerry Grist, now 34, from Sheffield, said she knew what a terrible ordeal Madeleine's parents would be going through.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She said: "I can imagine what they are going through, I went through exactly the same 16 years ago. It will be a nightmare for them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"They will be distraught, they will blame themselves, they will feel absolutely helpless and they will be praying that their little girl is found safe and well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"All they can do is rely on the police and other support services."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She added: "At least she has gone missing in a busy commercial area with good communications so she can be found quickly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"Hopefully they are getting better support from the police than we did when Ben went missing. We were in a very remote spot on Kos and the police didn't believe what we were telling them and valuable time was lost.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"That hasn't happened in this case and that can only help in the search for this little girl."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There have been a number of theories put forward to explain what happened to Ben.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the months after he disappeared, the most common theory was that he had been snatched by gypsies.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now Mrs Grist - she changed her name after remarrying last year - thinks her son was snatched for adoption by a non-Greek family, perhaps in Scandinavia, Australia or the United States.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She said: "I still firmly believe that I will see him again one day."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She added: "I just hope and pray this little girl is found quickly and safely so her parents don't have to go through the pain I have for all these years."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Milly Dowler and Madeleine McCann: Gone in the blink of an eye<br />
15/05/2011<br />
<br />
<br />
“It happened in the blink of an eye”, said the QC in the trial of the man accused of kidnapping and murdering Milly Dowler.<br />
<br />
For any parent it is a bone-shuddering statement.<br />
<br />
For Milly’s mother and father what torment it must induce. Nausea, illogical guilt and dreadful anguish.<br />
<br />
One minute their beautiful 13-year-old daughter was walking breezily home, the next she was gone.<br />
<br />
How they must empathise with Kate and Gerry McCann. Madeleine, whose eighth birthday it was last week, also disappeared “in the blink of an eye”.<br />
<br />
And what have they been through these past four years. At least the Dowlers had their daughter back to bury and a trial is under way, as they await the verdict. Comfort of sorts.<br />
<br />
But for Kate McCann the pain remains brutal and unending.<br />
<br />
She’s tough though, isn’t she? We knew that when she didn’t cry for the cameras in those early days of media hysteria.<br />
<br />
We knew that when Portuguese police declared them suspects. But the truth is you and I knew nothing. We knew nothing really of what she was going through. We knew nothing of the façade she tried desperately to maintain for Madeleine, and for her own dignity.<br />
<br />
Well now we know the truth. Just read her book, read about the soul-wrenching hurt.<br />
<br />
Read about the guilt and read about her instinct to swim out to sea and not come back or to rip the skin off her body.<br />
<br />
Read it. And then pray you’ll never live the same hell as the McCanns or the Dowlers or many, many others.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3249013827853760532.post-51156165098324819272011-03-11T05:58:00.001-08:002011-09-17T07:48:35.795-07:00McCann's usage of Peter Lawrence .<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="float-left position-relative margin-top-minus-22"><div class="clear-simple"></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"></span><u><strong>Claudia Lawrence police search pub with body-sniffing dogs</strong></u></span></div><h2 class="sub-heading padding-top-5 padding-bottom-15"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></h2><div id="region-column1-layout2"><div><div class="article-author"><span class="small"></span><span class="byline"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Adam Fresco, Crime Correspondent </span></span><br />

</style><br />
<div id="related-article-links"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Detectives investigating the disappearance of the chef Claudia Lawrence today brought in dogs trained to find bodies as they searched a pub near her home. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It is the second time offices have searched the site with the latest “more detailed” sweep said to be “integral” to the case. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ms Lawrence was last sighted at her home 12 weeks ago and was reported missing after she failed to arrive for a 6am shift at the University of York's Goodricke College. The Nag’s Head Pub is just doors away from her home. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Detectives, who are treating the case as suspected murder, believe that her disappearance is linked to a secretive love life that she kept hidden from friends and family. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ms Lawrence, 35, the daughter of a solicitor, was described by family and friends as sweet-natured, sociable and hard working but the police believe that her private life was complicated. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A spokesman for North Yorkshire Police said that nobody had been arrested in connection with her disappearance and the search, involving 11 search officers, was part of the ongoing investigation. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The spokesman said: “Today’s search of the Nag's Head public house is the latest element of what is a continuously developing investigation. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">“The search is a detailed one and will take several hours to complete. It is in addition to a search of the premises that took place on March 28 and forms an integral part of the overall search strategy that has been, and will continue to be, a central feature of the investigation.” </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">By 4pm crime scene investigators wearing blue plastic gloves began to file out into the pub car park and three large police vans left the scene. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Within ten minutes, the pub, still displaying posters reading “Have you seen Claudia?”, was open to customers but bar staff refused to discuss the search. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Miss Lawrence, a prolific texter, last spoke to her family on the evening of Wednesday March 18 and exchanged text messages with two friends. The next day her phone was switched off or powered down and has not been located. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She took no money, bank cards or passport. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Her disappearance was featured on the BBC Crimewatch programme. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Detective Superintendent Ray Galloway, of North Yorkshire Police, said he was certain she had kept some of her more "complex and mysterious" relationships secret. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">"As the investigation has developed, it is apparent that some of Claudia's relationships had an element of complexity and mystery to them," he said. "I am certain that some of those relationships were not known to her family and her friends. I need to know the details of those relationships." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Mr Galloway promised that anyone contacting the police would be dealt with in a discreet and confidential manner. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">He added: "I am not here to judge Claudia's relationships. I am here to investigate them. I need people to share that information with me." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">After the public appeal on Crimewatch, North Yorkshire Police said that they received about 40 calls offering information. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Alexandria Sims, Ms Lawrence's sister, talked about the strain of not knowing what had happened. "I find it hard to accept that people just vanish into thin air," she said. "There must be people out there that have seen something suspicious or who know something that has happened." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Miss Lawrence's father, Peter Lawrence, 62, from Malton, North Yorkshire, said: "It is almost unbearable not knowing. If anyone else out there who does have the knowledge [of what happened to her] has a family, they must know what we are going through." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The investigation is the biggest North Yorkshire Police have conducted since the search for multiple killer Mark Hobson five years ago. </span></div></div><a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article6522429.ece">http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article6522429.ece</a><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">“I can’t go on. I’m really sorry for my husband’s sake. But I can’t cover up a crime,” she had told Ana Rosa Quintana live on Telecinco the previous day.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She retracted her statement in court on February 16 and declarations to the police and investigating judge in 2008 which had implicated her sister-in-law Rosa del Valle.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">According to Isabel Garcia’s latest version of events as told to Ana Rosa Quintana, her husband killed Mari Luz accidentally. “It wasn’t on purpose,” she insisted.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">After the end of the television programme, Garcia, accompanied by presenter Nacho Abad, went voluntarily to a police station where she was detained overnight before questioning by the Madrid judge.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Garcia, who has learning difficulties, travelled three days earlier to Madrid at the invitation of the television channel and the same judge is now investigating the manner in which Isabel Garcia was taken from Sevilla to Madrid and later to the police.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Garcia’s admission on February 25 coincided with the final day of Santiago and Rosa del Valle’s trial for the murder of Mari Luz Cortes.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Mari Luz disappeared on January 13 2008 and her body was not found until March 7 2008. Del Valle was arrested on March 25 2008 and at the time should have been in prison for sexual abuse offences, including one against his own daughter, but was at large owing to a judicial oversight.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com
