Authorities believe German man is now the prime suspect in Madeleine McCann disappearance




Authorities now believe that the German man they announced is being questioned in relation to Madeleine McCann’s disappearance is now the prime suspect in the investigation.

German public prosecutors say that they believe Madeleine McCann is dead, and will treat the case as a murder inquiry.

The significant development in the ongoing McCann case came after German police arrested a German national in connection with the disappearance of the then 3-year-old Madeleine in Praia da Luz, Portugal, in 2007.

The man arrested was living in the area at the time of Madeleine’s disappearance. He is incarcerated in Germany for unrelated charges that involve crimes against young females.

The nature of this man’s connection with the Madeleine case remains unclear.
