Madeleine McCann: fresh police searches to start on Tuesday in Portugal
Madeleine, then aged three, disappeared in 2007 while on holiday with her family in the resort of Praia da Luz after her parents went out to dinner and left her sleeping in a room with her toddler twin siblings. According to The Sun, the new searches will involve radar equipment that can scan beneath the ground and will focus on trenches near where the McCann family was staying at the resort. A spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police said: 'We are aware of the searches being carried by the BKA (German federal police) in Portugal as part of their investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. 'The Metropolitan Police Service is not present at the search, we will support our international colleagues where necessary.' Around 30 German police officers, including forensic experts, will be starting the search on Tuesday, with Portuguese police also on the ground, according to reports. On Monday, Portuguese police reportedly closed off dirt roads in the area where searches will be taking place while tents have been set up in the nearby Atalaia area, near a cottage once lived in by Christian Brueckner, who German prosecutors say is the prime suspect in Madeleine's disappearance. Brueckner, who is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence in Germany for the rape of an elderly woman at her home in Praia da Luz in 2005, has denied any involvement. German authorities said they are receiving support from Portuguese law enforcement while the Portuguese police said that searches will be carried out between June 2 and 6 in the municipality of Lagos, in accordance with a European investigation order. Any evidence seized by the Policia Judiciaria will be passed to the German federal police. They last carried out searches in the country in 2023 near the Barragem do Arade reservoir, about 30 miles from Praia da Luz. Personnel at Barragem do Arade reservoir, in the Algave, Portugal, in May 2023 (Yui Mok/PA) Brueckner, who spent time in the area between 2000 and 2017, had photographs and videos of himself near the reservoir. It had previously been searched in 2008, when Portuguese lawyer Marcos Aragao Correia paid for specialist divers to search it after he claimed to have been tipped off by criminal contacts that Madeleine's body was there. British police were later given permission to examine scrubland near where she vanished in 2014. Last month, Madeleine's family marked the 18th anniversary of her disappearance, describing her as 'beautiful and unique' before her 22nd birthday, and expressing their determination to keep searching. A statement from her parents Kate and Gerry McCann and the family said: 'The years appear to be passing even more quickly and whilst we have no significant news to share, our determination to 'leave no stone unturned' is unwavering. We will do our utmost to achieve this.' In April, ministers approved more than £100,000 in additional funding for Scotland Yard detectives investigating Madeleine's disappearance.

Lizzie Cundy put on a leggy display in a lace mini dress as she weighed in on the Miss England scandal reflecting on Danny Jones ' wife. The socialite, 57, who has judged pageants for many years across her glitzy career in TV, appeared on Channel 5 's Storm Huntley show on Monday. For her TV stint she put on a classy display in a £350 pale blue Self-Portrait floral peplum minidress. She appeared on the show to weigh on the recent scandal surrounding the Miss England pageant contest. As she defended the show, the personality reflected back to her time as a judge on the show which was during the time when McFly 's Danny's wife Georgia won. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Speaking to the show host, Lizzie said: 'I was in these pageants, I did them, I have been a judge many times for Miss England. 'And I am sorry she wasn't happy with her experience but I know many girls where it has been absolutely incredible, given them a step up the ladder in their career, loads of opportunities, been able to do loads of charity work from it and had the time of their lives. 'I was a judge on Miss England when Danny Jones, you know McFly, his wife won Georgia who was profoundly deaf and she was finding it hard to get on in modelling work and when she won Miss England, it was a huge opportunity for her. 'She went on todo great things and it does a great deal for charity as well.' Lizzie defended the contest as it has come under fire in recent days after a Miss World beauty contestant has become embroiled in an exploitation row after she accused the organisers of using her as entertainment for wealthy investors. Milla Magee, the reigning Miss England, said she decided to take part in the Miss World 2025 pageant to promote her campaign to have CPR added to the school curriculum. But before she left before the grand final in India on Saturday, she reported claimed she felt exploited. It is believed that she said she and the other women were being used as entertainment for investors as a 'thank you', the Guardian first reported. Lizzie defended the contest as it has come under fire in recent days after a Miss World beauty contestant has become embroiled in an exploitation row after she accused the organisers of using her as entertainment for wealthy investors In response to the claims, Miss World referred to the 'false and defamatory statements' and said they were 'completely unfounded and inconsistent with the reality of her time with us'. The organisation's chief executive, Julia Morley reportedly claimed in an interview with the Hindu newspaper that Milla left because she 'believed she didn't stand a chance in the competition'. Miss England director Angie Beasley said in a statement: 'Beauty With A Purpose is a charity not a 'mantra' founded by Julia Morley CBE. Julia is the chairman & CEO of the Miss World organisation. 'The charity focuses on helping disadvantaged children and young people worldwide through various projects and initiatives. It's a platform that empowers young women to make a difference by raising funds and awareness for causes they are passionate about. 'Winning a national title like Miss England just gives the contestants a bigger platform to promote their causes. Miss Wales, Millie-Mae Adams won the Beauty with a Purpose Award for Europe at Miss World 2025 in Hyderabad India highlighting 'First Aid Against Knife Crime' a very powerful initiative . 'Our last Miss England winner Jessica Gagen promoted 'Women in Stem' during her year and placed in the top 8 of Miss World winning the Miss World Europe 2024 title. 'Us organisers work tirelessly to try and help our winners promote their project in their own country during their year which I have personally done for Milla Magee. 'During the year Milla held the Miss England title, I personally got behind her CPR project & promoted this for her on the Miss England platform as I think it's a great initiative. This is something we always do for our national winners now if they are passionate about their own project as usually it's a great way of spreading positivity on social media which I think we need to do in today's society! 'We even made CPR awareness a round in the next Miss England due to Milla's campaign highlighting the need for CPR Training across England with our hundreds of contestants.' Milla said: 'What Julia said was vindictive and very bitter. And it was a ridiculous statement. 'I did not leave because I thought I was not going to win. I left because I wanted to stand for what I believe in and it didn't align with my values. 'And I would hate for another young girl to go into this system after watching me this past year and have to experience the same.' She added: 'I felt like I've been fed a false narrative of this system that promotes ''beauty with a purpose'', that's supposed to be about advocacy and what you champion for.' Instead, Milla claimed she found she and the other women were there based on looks and to entertain guests, with limited opportunity provided to promote their chosen causes. In one claim, the contestant alleged that a man approached her and said: 'Next time I'm in London or England, hook me up' - leaving Milla feeling uncomfortable. She added that she has received many messages from women who have also taken part in pageants, 'saying how they felt the exact same'.
