Maddie: Latest searches end after three days
Western Morning News
|June 06, 2025
INVESTIGATORS probing the disappearance of Madeleine McCann appear to have wound down their latest searches in Portugal after three days scouring scrubland and abandoned structures.
Officers could be seen holding pitchforks as they combed land in an area on the outskirts of Lagos in Portugal on Thursday.
Search teams of German and Portuguese police officers, as well as firefighters, used pick-axes and shovels to dig some of the undergrowth and a digger was again used to remove rubble from one of the abandoned structures at the site.
The operation comes 18 years after three-year-old Madeleine disappeared from nearby Praia da Luz while on holiday with her family in 2007.
