Smirking Maddie suspect moved out of bolthole

Rapist complained locals had outed him

- BY PATRICK HILL

MADELEINE McCann suspect Christian Brueckner has been moved from his safe house a week after being released from jail.

Angry locals shouted “scum” as police led the convicted paedophile from the ground floor flat where he had been staying.

It is believed he was moved after he complained his address in a north German suburb had been posted in a WhatsApp group and residents started a petition to get him out.

Officers carried his bags as smirking Brueckner - in a green hoodie — strolled with hands in pockets to a police car.

The 48-year-old is German police's prime suspect in three-year-old Madeleine's 2007 disappearance.

She vanished while on holiday with her family in Praia da Luz in Portugal's Algarve.
