German police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann are to carry out fresh searches in Portugal this week, 18 years after the three-year-old went missing.

German authorities said they are receiving support from Portuguese law enforcement officers. They last carried out searches in Portugal in 2023 near the Barragem do Arade reservoir, about 30 miles from the resort of Praia da Luz. Madeleine disappeared in 2007 while on holiday with her family at the resort after her parents went out to dinner and left her sleeping in a room with her toddler twin siblings.

The prime suspect in the case is Christian Brueckner, who is serving a seven-year prison sentence in Germany for the rape of an elderly woman at her home in Praia da Luz in 2005.
