British police have names of suspects in Madeleine McCann case

DETECTIVES have named suspects in the Madeleine McCann investigation, Britain’s top policeman revealed yesterday.

Published: Fri, February 21, 2014

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe also disclosed his officers and Portuguese police are moving towards a joint investigation team.

On BBC Radio 5 Live, Sir Bernard said: “We can’t police Portugal and they can’t do anything here. So we must work together.”

It has been reported that Madeleine’s parents are frustrated at the slow progress towards a joint inquiry.

Madeleine, who was three at the time, vanished from a holiday apartment in Praia de Luz on the Algarve in May 2007.

We can’t police Portugal and they can’t do anything here. So we must work together
Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe
Since May 2011, a special squad of Scotland Yard detectives have investigated.

It is understood the squad has identified a number of suspects, including three burglars operating in the area at the time.

Radio presenter Nicky Campbell asked: “You have lines of inquiry, suspects, names?” Sir Bernard replied: “That’s right.”

Authorities in London and Lisbon are working to set up a joint squad to take advantage of European law to speed up cross-border inquiries.

Red tape hampering search for Madeleine McCann

THE parents of Madeleine McCann want police to form a joint British and Portuguese task-force to find their daughter.

By: David PilditchPublished: Thu, February 20, 2014

The couple are said to be frustrated that the level of co-operation between the two forces “isn’t as it should be”.

It comes amid growing concerns that investigators are conducting separate inquiries instead of pooling resources.

Last night a friend of the couple said they were worried that a potential conflict will hinder the search for Madeleine, abducted in May 2007.

The source said: “It is obvious that the co-operation between Britain and Portugal isn’t as it should be.

“There are two police inquiries going on in two different countries trying to find out what happened to Madeleine and you would want and hope that they would work together.”

British investigators are focusing on three local burglars blamed for a string of break-ins at the Algarve holiday resort of Praia da Luz, where Madeleine was staying with her family. In what could be a breakthrough, Scotland Yard honed in on the three men after a painstaking trawl through mobile phone records.

It is understood there was significant phone traffic between them around the time Madeleine, then aged three, vanished.

Kate and Gerry hope, for the sake of Madeleine, the two countries’ forces can work together in a joint investigation
A source close to the McCann's

Portugal’s Policia Judiciaria are concentrating their efforts on a theory that a sacked resort worker abducted Madeleine. Heroin addict Euclides Monteiro, 40, was killed in a tractor accident four years ago, but mobile phone analysis placed his handset near the McCanns’ apartment on the night Madeleine disappeared.

There have also been concerns Scotland Yard’s Operation Grange investigation has been caught up in red tape.

British police have to send international letters of request to Portugal via the Crown Prosecution Service each time they want officers to carry out investigative work on their behalf.

Last night the source close to the McCanns said: “Kate and Gerry hope, for the sake of Madeleine, the two countries’ forces can work together in a joint investigation.”

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe has also called for senior detectives from both countries to conduct a single inquiry.

Last night the McCanns’ spokesman said: “Kate and Gerry remain very pleased with the work Scotland Yard continue to do in the search for Madeleine.”

Britain's most senior police officer confirms the Met has the names of three suspects in Madeleine McCann case and is 'closing in'

Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe said there has been 'progress' in McCann case
Told BBC's Radio 5 Live they have different questions to Portuguese police
Said that his officers had names of suspects involved in case
Declined to say when the suspects would be quizzed about Madeleine

Britain's most senior police officer has suggested his officers are closing in on the people who abducted Madeleine McCann.
Scotland Yard boss Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe admitted his officers have the names of suspects and that ‘some progress’ is being made in the inquiry.

But he declined to be drawn on when the suspects would be quizzed over her disappearance in Portugal seven years ago.
He told BBC’s Radio 5 Live: ‘We have sent three letters of request for international assistance to the Portuguese judiciary, because that is the way their system works.

‘We have got lines of inquiry which are different to the Portuguese Police’s and we are working with them to try to resolve that.
'We are making some progress.’

Asked by presenter Nicky Campbell whether his officers had the names of suspects, he replied: ‘That is correct’.
He declined to comment further.

Sir Bernard’s comments came after the Mail revealed exclusively last month that the Met has identified three burglars as prime suspects for Madeleine’s disappearance.

Analysis of mobile phone data suggests the men were close to the scene of her abduction, at the time she went missing, and that they were in close contact with each other in the hours that followed.

Following our revelations, Portuguese newspapers reported that three former Ocean Club workers are Scotland Yard’s prime suspects over her disappearance.

Details of the men’s alleged links to the Mark Warner-run resort in the Algarve, where Maddie vanished from in 2007, were revealed in a number of Portuguese newspapers with close links to local police.

They were disclosed two days after Portuguese police had a high-level meeting with a visiting Scotland Yard delegation late last month.
At the meeting, Met detectives are reported to have requested bank details of the men, who are thought to have carried out a series of break-ins at the Ocean Club in the run up to Maddie’s disappearance.

Although local media reported the men had been employed at the Ocean Club complex in Praia da Luz, it was not clear whether they were working there at the time Madeleine went missing in May 2007.

Nor was it clear whether they were directly employed by Mark Warner, or through a contractor.

Madeleine, who was then nearly four, disappeared from her family’s holiday apartment in Praia da Luz in the Algarve on May 3 2007 as her parents dined at a nearby restaurant with friends.

It is now known that between January and May 2007 there had been a four-fold increase in the number of burglaries in the area.

End to mystery of Madeleine?

MANY of us watch the seemingly limitless supply of police dramas on TV, some of them absolutely ludicrous if one knows even a smidgen of the real, slogging, back-breaking hard work that goes on behind the solving of real crimes.

Hardest of all are the cold cases: crimes where years have elapsed and the trail gone cold.

Such a case is the snatching of three-year-old Madeleine McCann seven years ago from her parents’ holiday flat at Praia da Luz, Algarve coast, Portugal.

The Portuguese investigation was an unmitigated fiasco and the child has never been seen since.

Mr and Mrs McCann remain convinced without a shred of evidence that she remains alive... somewhere.

It may just be that all these years later, working on old records and faded memories, Scotland Yard has cracked it.

There were three hardened Portuguese burglars working that resort on that night. The local detectives should have known but didn’t.

The aces from Lisbon should have learned of them but never did.

Scotland Yard worked out they were there and all had mobile phones with each other’s numbers. And that night electronic records now unearthed reveal they all went ballistic as the three villains called each other.

It seems the Portuguese police have traced them and picked them up for some pretty “enhanced” interrogation.

Maybe one of them knows what really happened. Never complain about our bobbies until you have seen the rest.

One thing, when and if the finger is formally pointed at the Mc Canns, they will take as many people down with them as they possibly can.

I still find it hard to accept that every member of the TAPAS 9 knows the whole story. I think it was on a need to know basis and that some of them know more than others.

Madeleine McCann police hunt two Eastern European bogus charity workers who targeted Algarve holiday homes
Mar 22, 2014 22:30 By Matthew Drake

The “significant development” regarding men in their 50s with heavy builds came hours after a new appeal on Crimewatch last Wednesday

Police hunting for Madeleine McCann have been given vital new clues about two bogus charity workers operating in the resort when the tot went missing.

The “significant development” came hours after a new appeal on Crimewatch last Wednesday.

British officers were given fresh details about the conmen now believed to be Eastern European rather than Portuguese as originally thought.

They were told both were in their 50s with heavy builds. The men, claiming to be fundraisers for disabled children, were seen knocking on doors of ­apartments in Praia da Luz where the three-year-old went missing in 2007.

They had a yellow calling card showing a girl in a wheelchair pictured on the double-sided note. Both were also seen drinking coffees and shots of spirits in the morning outside a shopping centre yards from the apartment where the youngster vanished.

A source said: “The men were knocking on the doors of holidaymakers asking for cash for a charity for handicapped children. They disappeared from the area but it is not known how they­ ­travelled about.

“The charity card they used had six or seven sentences on each side. One was written in Portuguese and the other in English, but with very poor grammar.

“They said very little and appeared to rely on showing people their card. It is believed they were Eastern ­European.”

Scotland Yard officers on Operation Grange are keen to trace the two men. They believe they had previously targeted other areas in the Algarve and are focusing attention on the resort of Albufeira.

Police have previously issued e-fit photos of two bogus charity workers operating in the area – but believed them to be Portuguese at the time.

The fresh intelligence emerged after officers in the hunt launched an appeal on Wednesday night’s BBC1 Crimewatch programme – sparking more than 250 calls and emails.

Det Chief Insp Andy Redwood also revealed police are looking for an intruder who sexually abused five British children during break-ins in the area.

The tanned, dark-haired man is suspected of breaking in to 12 properties where families were staying in the Algarve between 2004 and 2010.

In four of the incidents, a total of five girls aged between seven and 10 were sexually assaulted.

These attacks all happened between 2004 and 2006, before Madeleine vanished the following year.

Mr Redwood said: “I’m sure the public will understand the significant features of this offending.

“A man attacking young, white, female children, in their beds while they are on holiday with their families has a very close resonance to some of the features of Madeleine’s disappearance.

“We need to identify the offender to bring to a close the trauma and the tragedy that these families have suffered.

Then we need to establish whether this is connected to Madeleine’s disappearance.”

A Yard spokesman said: “We have received over 250 calls and emails following the appeal. Officers are now reviewing the information and following up lines of inquiry."

Madeleine disappeared from her family’s holiday ­apartment in Praia da Luz on May 3 2007 as her parents Kate and Gerry dined at a nearby restaurant with friends, leaving their daughter sleeping with her younger twin siblings.

British detectives launched a fresh ­investigation into Madeleine’s disappearance in July last year – two years into a review of the case – and made renewed appeals on television in the UK, the Netherlands and Germany.

Portuguese authorities shelved their inquiry into Madeleine’s disappearance in 2008.

But they admitted last October that a review had uncovered enough new information to justify reopening it.

Last week Scotland Yard expressed frustration at the speed of the ­Portuguese legal system as they try to discover what has happened to the missing ­youngster.

David Cameron has said he would be willing to appeal directly to the P­ortuguese government if British police felt their investigation into Madeleine’s disappearance was being hampered by bureaucracy.

The Prime Minister’s official spokesman said Mr Cameron would be prepared to “make further representations” to the government in Portugal if it would help Scotland Yard’s inquiry.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Martin Hewitt revealed Scotland Yard’s dissatisfaction with their slow progress. He said: “That’s causing us ­frustration because we know what we want to do and we are ready to go with that. But the process is the process.”

Scotland Yard has so far written three international letters of request to the Portuguese, covering 41 priority areas and including 287 separate requests.

Scotland Yard and Portuguese police fall out over identity of key Madeleine McCann suspect

SCOTLAND Yard’s hunt for Madeleine McCann is in jeopardy because of foot-dragging by Portuguese police who think they know who was responsible for her disappearance.

High-ranking officers in Portugal are convinced African thief Euclides Monteiro took Madeleine and was responsible for sex attacks on five other British girls before being killed in a tractor accident in 2009.

However, the frustrated Yard team believes there is insufficient evidence. One attack believed to be significant to the Madeleine inquiry took place the year after Monteiro died. The clash is threatening to stall the Yard probe at a crucial time, with detectives here having made 287 requests for leads to be pursued in Portugal.

The Sunday Express understands they have asked for forensic work at holiday apartments where sex attacks took place, in their hunt for a breakthrough clue, a fingerprint or hair.

Yet delays by Portuguese officials are slowing progress and increasing tensions between the two forces.

Last week Deputy Assistant Commissioner Martin Hewitt admitted he was “frustrated” with the pace of the investigation.

The Yard is interested in Monteiro but pointedly declined to name him during a briefing for journalists last week when it made a fresh appeal for help from the public. The ex-junkie was sacked as a waiter at an Ocean Club restaurant in Praia da Luz for stealing a year before Madeleine vanished from a holiday apartment there in May 2007.

Portuguese police have been interested in the volume of calls on his mobile phone on the night she vanished, which indicate he was near the scene.

Yard officers want to know if he acted alone as a thief or was part of a wider, more sinister paedophile ring which could still pose a risk to British children holidaying on the Algarve.

They also want to investigate possible links with burglars operating in Praia da Luz whom he was known to associate with.

Last week the Yard revealed it was focusing on 12 “potentially” linked break-ins between 2004 and 2010 on the western Algarve. In four cases between 2004 and 2006 a man sexually assaulted five white girls aged between seven and 10 in their beds. Two were assaulted in one villa.

The man remained calm throughout all the attacks and even when disturbed by waking parents or children he made no attempt to run away, leaving villas slowly, apparently unconcerned about being caught.

Two break-ins occurred in Praia da Luz in 2006 and 2010 but children were not assaulted in those incidents. As Monteiro died in 2009 he could not have been responsible for the last break-in in 2010.

In most of the 12 cases nothing was taken and there was no sign of forced entry, suggesting access to holiday apartment keys. All were within about an hour’s drive.

The Yard said: “Witnesses describe the man as having dark, as in tanned, skin with short dark unkempt hair. He spoke English with a foreign accent. His voice was described as slow or possibly slurred.”

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood said: “We need to establish the identity of this man. These offences are very serious and no one has been charged. We also need to eliminate this man from our inquiries and ascertain whether these offences are linked to Madeleine’s disappearance.”

Portuguese police later leaked that the person being sought was identified by their officers as Monteiro, although he was never formally charged with any of the offences because of insufficient evidence.

However, the information offered by the Yard suggests it is far from convinced by the evidence uncovered by Portuguese detectives. They have Monteiro’s DNA as the Cape Verde immigrant had served time for theft.

British officers have pointed out to the Portuguese that a key sighting of a man holding a child in Luz at 10pm, shortly after Madeleine was taken, was not of a black man. Irishman Martin Smith and family saw him.

Former Portuguese inspector Goncalo Amaral was about to fly Mr Smith to Portugal when he was removed from the case. DCI Redwood said last week: “We still need to establish the identity of a man seen by three witnesses, carrying a child fitting Madeleine’s description towards the beach or town at about 22.00 on the night Madeleine disappeared.

“The witnesses have described the man in the e-fits as being white, aged in his 30s, with short brown hair of medium build, medium height and clean shaven.”

Madeleine Police Probe Five New Assault Cases
Detectives investigate fresh reports of a lone intruder abusing young British girls in holiday apartments in the Algarve.

British police are looking at five new cases in which young British girls were sexually abused following holiday home break-ins by an intruder in the Algarve.

One of these assaults took place on a 10-year-old girl in Praia da Luz, from where Madeleine vanished two years later.

British police say they are poised to begin operations on Portuguese soil following an official agreement from Portuguese police later this week.

Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Martin Hewitt said he is "cautiously optimistic" that Portuguese and British officers can act soon.

"I am cautiously optimistic that in the not-too-distant future we are going to start to see activity," he said.

Officers from Operation Grange have identified a series of 12 crimes between 2004 and 2010 where a male intruder entered villas occupied by UK families on holiday in the Western Algarve.

These include nine confirmed sexual assaults and three "near misses".

In four of these incidents - between 2004 and 2006 - the man sexually assaulted five white girls, aged between seven and 10, while in their beds.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood said today: "We have now identified a further five sexual assaults and one near miss. None of those six matters we were aware of prior to our appeal.

"In this new tranche of information we have got one crime which is very clearly in the heart of Praia da Luz in 2005, on a young, white, 10-year-old girl.

"Clearly the fact that we've now got an assault that is in the heart of Praia da Luz, very close to where a previous matter had been reported, means that we are even more interested in this as part of the inquiry."

Madeleine McCann: Police probe 18 intruder break-ins

Police investigating Madeleine McCann's disappearance are now looking at 18 potentially linked cases of a lone intruder breaking into Algarve villas.

Nine of those concern alleged sexual assaults against British girls aged six to 12 between 2004 and 2006.

They include an assault on a 10-year-old in 2005 in Praia de Luz - the same resort from which three-year-old Madeleine vanished in May 2007.

Scotland Yard says it hopes UK officers will begin operations in Portugal soon.

The Metropolitan Police said six incidents had come to light since a special appeal on the McCann case was made last month.

Burgundy top

Two families said the intruder had worn a distinctive burgundy long-sleeved top
They include the incident involving the 10-year-old, which was not reported to police in either country until now.

The other cases were reported to Portuguese police at the time.

So far more than 500 people have been in contact with information since the March appeal.

'Bare-chested'

Investigators from Scotland Yard are waiting for an official agreement later this week which would allow them to begin "operational activity" on Portuguese soil.

Dep Asst Commissioner Martin Hewitt said: "I am cautiously optimistic that in the not-too-distant future we are going to start to see activity."

Mr Hewitt would not reveal what the operations would involve.

Detectives said last month the lone intruder was described as tanned with dark hair.

They said the man was bare-chested in some of the attacks, and some witnesses said he had a pot belly. Three victims said he had a "noticeable odour".

Two of the families said the intruder had worn a distinctive burgundy long-sleeved top, and one family said the top had a white circle on the back.

The man was said to have spoken English slowly, with a foreign accent.

BREAKING: British police searching for Madeleine McCann planning 'activity' in Portugal

BRITISH detectives investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann are poised to stage operations on Portuguese soil.

Investigators from Scotland Yard are waiting for an official agreement later this week, and hope to begin "operational activity" linked to the case in the near future.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Martin Hewitt said he is "cautiously optimistic" that Portuguese and British officers can act soon.

He said: "I am cautiously optimistic that in the not-too-distant future we are going to start to see activity."

Mr Hewitt would not reveal what the operations will involve.

Police also revealed that they are now looking at five more cases in which young British girls were sexually assaulted during holiday home break-ins by a lone intruder in the Algarve.

One of these was in 2005 on a 10-year-old girl in Praia da Luz, where Madeleine, then three, vanished two years later.

Scotland Yard made public appeals to try to trace the paedophile last month, and so far more than 500 people have made contact with information.

Officers are now looking at a total of nine sexual assaults and three "near misses" on British girls aged six to 12 between 2004 and 2006.

Last month the team revealed that they were looking at a series of break-ins, including two burglaries in the town where Madeleine disappeared.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood said today: "As a result of those 500 calls, we have now identified a further five sexual assaults and one near miss. None of those six matters we were aware of prior to our appeal.

"In this new tranche of information we have got one crime which is very clearly in the heart of Praia da Luz in 2005, on a young, white, 10-year-old girl.

"Clearly the fact that we've now got an assault that is in the heart of Praia da Luz, very close to where a previous matter had been reported, means that we are even more interested in this as part of the inquiry."

British detectives launched a fresh investigation into Madeleine's disappearance in July last year - two years into a review of the case.

After shelving their inquiry into Madeleine's disappearance in 2008, Portuguese authorities said last October that a review had uncovered enough new information to justify reopening it.

Portugal has declined to set up an official joint investigation with the Met.

Mr Hewitt said Prime Minister David Cameron and Home Secretary Theresa May have expressed a personal interest in the case, and stand ready to intervene to press the Portuguese authorities for help if necessary.

Update following the disappearance of Madeleine McCann

Following an appeal in March, officers from Operation Grange investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann have had a positive response to the appeal which has led to a number of new lines of enquiry.

Detectives overseeing the investigation specifically appealed for further information leading to the identification of a suspect who may have been responsible for a potentially linked series of twelve offences on the Western Algarve region between 2004 and 2010.

As a direct result of a media appeal on 19 March the investigation team subsequently received over 500 calls. Information from those calls has led to the identification of six new cases involving children. These six are in addition to the twelve that had previously been brought to their attention.

These new cases are similar to a number of the originally identified twelve offences whereby a male intruder has gained access to holiday villas occupied by UK families in the Western Algarve.

Of the six new cases, all but one had been reported to the Portuguese police at the time of the offence. Five involve sexual assaults on children and one was a ‘near miss'. Of particular interest to the team is that one of the new sexual assaults took place in Praia da Luz in 2005.

Sufficient characteristics between the cases lead them to now believe that 18 matters in total concerning children may be potentially linked.

Three incidents that took place in Praia de Luz - between 2005 and 2010
Five incidents that took place in Carvoeiro between 2004 and 2006
Nine incidents that took place in the Praia de Gale, Vale de Parra, Sao Rafeal (Albuferia district) between 2004 and 2008
One incident that took place in Vilamoura in 2005, a new offence which has come to light since the March appeal.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood, the senior investigating officer said: "I'm encouraged by the new information that has come to light as a direct result of the appeal in March. There has been a huge public desire to assist us with our investigation and I would like to thank those who have provided us with new information."

Anyone with any information is asked to call the Operation Grange incident room on 0207 321 9251. Alternatively if you do not want to speak to us directly you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The Metropolitan Police Service continues to offer a reward of up to £20,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest and prosecution of the person(s) responsible for the abduction of Madeleine McCann from Praia da Luz, Portugal on 3 May 2007.

British police Six more cases of British children attacked in Algarve Cases were discovered after a public appeal made through the media.

British police revealed this Wednesday taken to have identified six cases of British children sexually assaulted in the Algarve, reinforcing the belief that a pedophile will have existed in the coming years the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. These cases were discovered after a public appeal made through the media in March, related to 12 other cases previously reported and that Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood said today having a "sufficient number of characteristics in common," including the method or time to make believe they are related

"The intruder did not force entry into houses and little or nothing was stolen," he said today in a meeting with reporters, which revealed that since March received over 500 new calls. Altogether, Scotland Yard has registered 18 cases involving British children "white" aged between six and 12 years, nine of which were implemented and three sexual assaults were almost, but did not actually happen. Three took place in Praia da Luz, between 2005 and 2010, five in Carvoeiro, between 2004 and 2006, nine of the Gale Beach, Vale de Parra and San Rafael, in the municipality of Albufeira, between 2004 and 2008, and one in Vilamoura in 2005.

Andy Redwood, who heads the 'Operation Grange', the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in charge of the British Metropolitan Police, said that four of the cases had not been reported to the Portuguese authorities and was interested in inquiring about a particular incident verified in Praia da Luz with a 10 year old. "I did not return to Portugal since the last appeal in March. Clearly, one of the things I will be interested in making the next meeting with the research team [Judicial Police] Port is not what they did with all this information," said . The official assured that all these new findings were shared with the PJ, but only had access to some of the research processes of the Portuguese authorities, and admitted that there are "lost" cases in which local police are not known for PJ. "We want to see all the processes to add to our research," he said.

I know you're all blinded by hatred and bile, so I thought I'd be kind and point out how you are possibly painting yourselves as a p.a.e.d.o.philes best friend:

18 cases of a man entering the holiday homes of young British girls with the intent of sexually abusing them.

That would turn any normal, mentally-healthy person's stomach.

18 children scarred for life. Their mothers and fathers scarred for life.

Any family who has been to Portugal during that period must be counting their blessings that it wasn't their child.

And what do you lot do? Tweet and FB on behalf of the p.a.e.dophile who committed these sick, sick acts; telling people it's lie or didn't happen.

You are defending him and negating the horrific consequences of his actions.

You are sympathising with a p.a.e.dophile.

Have a little think about that...
