Police given £192,000 for Madeleine inquiry

THE search for Madeleine McCann has been given a new lifeline as Scotland Yard was granted up to a further £192,000 to continue investigations into her disappearance.

Home Office minister Lord Sharpe confirmed the latest funding for Operation Grange in a parliamentary written answer.

He added that as of March 31, the Metropolitan Police had spent £13.2million on the case.

It comes as the McCann family marks the 17th anniversary of their daughter's disappearance tomorrow and her 21st birthday next week.

Madeleine disappeared from her family's holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, on May 3, 2007, just days before her fourth birthday.
