Madeleine McCann, the British girl who disappeared in Portugal in 2007, is dead, Germany's prosecutor said after identifying an imprisoned German child abuser as a murder suspect.
The German man, who was not publicly named, lived in the Algarve between 1995 and 2007 and burgled hotels and holiday apartments as well as dealing drugs, German police said. He is currently in detention over a different matter.
German police said earlier that the suspect, who lived near Praia da Luz, has been sentenced on numerous occasions to prison terms for sexual abuse of children in the past. "All we have ever wanted is to find her, uncover the truth and bring those responsible to justice," her parents, Kate and Gerry, said in a statement issued before the German prosecutor spoke.
