New Madeleine McCann Dig in Portugal: Police to search 21 sites in the vicinity of the former address of number one suspect Christian Breckner

The Portuguese police have been seen this afternoon that unpaved roads are being closed and tents setting up near the former address of Christian Brueckner, the most important suspect in the disappearance Madeleine McCannWhen a new search for instructions begins.

The Policia Judiciaria Police, who led the hunt in Portugal for Maddie since she disappeared in 2007, said this afternoon that the request to seek the area was made by the German authorities, who are currently in custody.

The searches are expected to take place between Praia da Luz, where three -year -old disappeared on 3 May 2007, and a house near the holiday resort Brueckner used to live.

The search will take place between June 2 and June 6, with a well -placed Portuguese source that confirms: ‘They will only be land search orders. The main objective is to look for signs of Madeleine’s body. ‘

Sources said the searches would take place on more than 20 private pieces of land near a rickety rented house on the outskirts of Praia da Luz where Brueckner lived a few years before 2007.

One said: ‘The search will take place on 21 pieces of private land that are in some cases open and are not fenced. Wells, ruins and water storage tanks are searched. ‘

The Portuguese police said: ‘The Polícia Judiciária (PJ) is leaving a European investigation decision (Dei) issued by the German authorities and issued by the Coordinator of the Office of the Public Prosecutor of the Faro District, with a view to a wide range of measures, in particular search fair.

‘The search order was published by the Braunschweig office of the public prosecutor, which carries out preliminary procedures against a German citizen suspected of the murder of the British Burgerine Beth McCann, who disappeared from a holiday resort in Praia da Luz on 3 May 2007.

“All evidence taken by the PJ will, with the prior permission of the national public prosecutor, be transferred to the agents of the German federal criminal police service.”

The search is expected to take approximately three days, unless something is relevant.

It will be the first search in Portugal for more than two years, after an operation for almost week with Portuguese, German and police officers at an external dam on an external dam at 40 minutes drive from Praia da Luz.

The searches in May 2023 at Arade Dam, an ‘area of ​​interest’ that Brueckner reportedly called his ‘Little Paradise’, came to nothing.

It is not clear whether detectives are now acting on a new tip about where Madeleine’s body could be.

The German police team is expected to include forensic experts, who were also present for the searches for May 2023 Arade Dam.

They were the first important searches in Portugal for Madeleine McCann in nine years after an earlier June 2014 operation when the British police were given permission to perform excavations in Praia da Luz involving sniffer dogs that were trained in detecting bodies and soil-penetrating radar.

Those excavations were linked to the leading British police theory when Madeleine died during a burglary and burglars hid her body in the neighborhood.

They also failed to provide evidence that points to the residence of the missing young person.

In a smaller operation in July 2020, the Portuguese police and firefighters searched three wells to Madeleine’s body, but could not find any trace of her.

Brueckner stays in prison in Germany, where he serves a period of seven years for rape.

The 48-year-old convicted pedophile faces with his hope to be released from prison in September after being reportedly accused of new offenses against prison protectors behind bars.

He is being investigated on suspicion of kidnapping and murder in the McCann case, but has denied any involvement in the disappearance of the girl 2007.

While German researchers have made the unusual move to name the convicted pedophile as a suspect in the case, he has not been charged.

The prison sentence of Brueckner will end with his release in September – much earlier than public prosecutors after he was acquitted after a trial after a trial of non -related sexual offenses.

The convicted rapist is no longer held in lonely imprisonment when he approaches the end of his sentence.

Now that the release of Brueckner is popping up, the pressure on public prosecutors to accuse him after explosive revelations in a channel 4 documentary and evidence that was found in a former factory, the authorities believe that he can link him to the abduction of Maddie.

The materials, excavated in a non -used box factory in Germany, include a mean catalog of corrupt documents, children’s clothing, small bicycles and more than 75 bathing suits and toys that are believed to belong to young girls.

Some were reportedly buried under the body of the dead dog of Brueckner, who was excavated during the police search.

“The clock here is against the case and researchers do not want to see Brueckner walk for free,” a source told The Sun.

‘The best option can be intervention from British police, but they must be willing to accept it. There are 20,000 pages of Madeleine evidence and the Germans are ready to translate the party. ‘

Officers searched the area around the Arade Dam in Silves in May 2023, but have not made any significant progress in their research.

The site is approximately 45 minutes from Praia da Luz, where Madeleine was three years old in 2007 without a track.

It was the first major operation in its kind since June 2014, when the British police were given permission to dig in Praia da Luz with the help of sniffer dogs that have been trained in detecting bodies and ground penetrating radar.

The Portuguese broadcaster SIC reported that the German police asked for permission to search the dam in an official judicial request to Portugal after concluding that it was ‘an area of ​​interest’.
