McCanns ‘hugely encouraged’ by review of case

Kate and Gerry McCann will mark the fifth anniversary of their daughter, Madeleine’s, disappearance this week amid renewed hopes she will be found.

McCanns ‘hugely encouraged’ by review of case

The couple are said to be “hugely encouraged” by Scotland Yard’s ongoing review of the case, which has identified nearly 200 potential leads. But the Portuguese authorities have so far refused to reopen their investigation into how the little girl vanished on a family holiday to the Algarve on May 3, 2007.

The McCanns, from Rothley, Leicestershire, have no plans to return to Portugal for the anniversary, and will mark the sad landmark on Thursday privately with family and friends.
