MISSING
Madeleine McCanns parents yesterday blasted
claims that releasing a photo of her had led
to her death.
Publishing
the image may have 'panicked' a kidnapper
into killing her, said a legal source in
Portugal. It was also claimed that
Portuguese prosecutors now believed her body
would NEVER be found.
The source
said: 'An abductor felt trapped and got rid
of her. The parents may have contributed to
this story having an unfortunate ending.'
He claimed
abducted Spanish girl Mari Luz Cortes, five,
was also killed because of too much
publicity.
But
Maddies parents Kate and Gerry, of Rothley,
Leics, were 'furious' at the claims last
night. Spokesman Clarence Mitchell said:
'They don't believe Maddie is dead.'

He
insisted releasing pictures would help the
public recognise Maddie, four, who vanished
in Praia da Luz last May.
