Maddie: Plea for new hunt
KATE and Gerry McCann yesterday begged the Portuguese people to help
find their missing daughter
Madeleine - by signing a petition calling
for a new search.
During a trip to Lisbon they asked the nation to back their new plea to
the Portuguese and British governments to reopen the case. They already
have 34,000 signatures, but want 100,000.
Kate, 42, said: "If we have no help from the authorities we must
continue to look for ourselves. It's very difficult."
Maddie was nearly four when she disappeared from a holiday
apartment in
Praia da Luz in 2007. The police investigation was shelved in 2008.
The couple were also in the country in a new bid to
halt the sale of a
book about Maddie by
Goncalo Amaral - the police chief sacked from the
case. |
