McCanns to use own Forensic team

The McCanns' law firm Kingsley Napley have brought in its own forensic team after the discovery of allegedly damaging evidence found in the apartment in Praia da Luz and in a Renault Scenic hire car, rented 25 days after Madeleine vanished. McCann's are doing this to refute Portuguese police claims that new DNA tests link them to Madeleine's disappearance.


The parents of missing Madeleine McCann continue to insist that any DNA found in the car could have been innocently transferred from their daughter's clothing when they moved to a new apartment.

But FSS sources are reported to have claimed that while the fresh DNA evidence does not provide conclusive proof, it does suggest, on balance, that the Portuguese police were right to make the couple arguidos, or official suspects.

The McCanns fear that the search was halted by Portuguese police three months ago when British police sniffer dogs reacted to the 'scent of death' on Mrs McCann's clothing. They said that, scaling down of the police operation in Portugal has forced them to bring in their own team of investigators to follow up leads and potential sightings.

The McCanns' supporters insist that the case against them is fundamentally flawed. Ironically, it was their own efforts to kick start the investigation on missing Madeleine McCann, that led to them being named as suspects. Link
