Officials have confirmed that the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, three-years-old who went missing while on holiday with her parents in Portugal, might end in the next few months. The head of the Metropolitan Police, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, revealed that the investigators are convinced that there remains one line of inquiry worth pursuing unless any new evidence emerges, that will mean the end of the British investigation.
The incident took place in in 2007 and the inquiry is looking into it since but there has been no trace of the 7-year-old so far. According to Sir Bernard, “there’s been a lot of investigation time spent on this terrible case. It’s a child who went missing, everybody wants to know if she is alive and if she is where is she, and sadly if she’s dead then we need to give some comfort to the family.” Furthermore, he revealed during a radio interview that “it’s needed us to carry out an investigation together with the Portuguese and other countries have been involved” and “there is a line of inquiry that remains to be concluded and it’s expected that in the coming months that will happen.”
Recently, the Home Office confirmed to have approved £95,000 of funding to keep the investigation. However, Sir Bernard elucidated that “the size of the team has come down radically, we are now down to two or three people in that team, at one stage there were about 30 officers in it,” adding that “there is a line of inquiry that everybody agrees is worthwhile pursuing.”
