Police files on McCanns likely to be made public

MISSING Madeleine McCann’s parents could be allowed to see the Portuguese authorities’ case against them within a fortnight, one of their lawyers said yesterday.

Rogerio Alves said police files may be made public on April 14, when the official secrecy period covering the investigation into the young girl’s disappearance is due to end.

Kate and Gerry McCann, from Rothley, Leicestershire, remain arguidos — or formal suspects — in the case but have not been charged and deny all wrongdoing.
