Brown raises
Madeleine concerns with
Portugal |
|

|
Gordon Brown raised concerns about the investigation into the disappearance of
Madeleine McCann with the Portuguese Prime Minister today.
The Prime Minister thanked Jose Socrates for his government’s help in trying to
track down Madeleine after she disappeared from her bed in the Algarve resort
of Praia da Luz 68 days ago.
Mr Brown said he had been assured by Mr Socrates during talks at 10 Downing Street
that eveything had been done to the find the missing
girl.
Madeleine’s parents, Kate and Gerry McCann of Rothley.
Leicestershire, are known to have been concerned about delays early in the
police investigation and about a lack of information released to the public.
Mr Brown said: “I have talked to Madeleine McCann’s parents. I have heard from
them their appreciation of the work that has been done in this investigation.
“Obviously there are issues they want to be assured about and I have raised
these with the Portuguese Prime Minister.
“He has assured me that everything that can be done will be done and obviously
we look for progress in something that’s heart-rending in its sadness, that a
young child can be separated from her parents for so long.”
Mr Socrates said: “It’s important for Great Britain but it’s important for
Portugal, and it’s very touching in public opinion in Great Britain but also in
Portugal.
“We have dedicated to this investigation all the resources we have in order to
give it high priority and we are doing our best. Everyone in Portugal and
the family knows we are doing our best.”
The continuing public interest in the case was highlighted today by the social
networking site MySpace which said that that profile highlighting the search
for Madeleine is the seventh most popular amongst its 10 million British users.
* A woman who carried out a fake door-to-door collection for the fund to find
Madeleine was jailed for 90 days today.
Debbie Clifton, 33, from, Chadsmoor, Cannock, “bitterly regrets” carrying out the deception in
the little girl’s name, her lawyer told Cannock Magistrate’s Court.
Jacqueline Coley-Fisher, defending, said Clifton
had received a number of threats from other inmates while on remand in prison
and has been placed in segregation. |
