I assume everyone wants the girl to be found safe & well, much like the hundreds of other children who go missing every year.
Spot on Smug..Child kidnapping and putting them into enforced sexual slavery/prostitution, seems to a growing global problem..
I don't get this. Let's release this sort of information because if it was them, then they have plenty of time to go either, A) underground or B) Plenty of time to sort alibis out. None of it is relevant, because of course, it had something to do with Gerry.
3 men at the centre of a worldwide kidnapping storm steal a child then just hang around in case they can help the police with their enquiries. Yes it all makes sense now.
It's gruesome but laughable at the same time. A gang of burglars calling each other on mobile phones . . . . beggars belief doesn't it?
The world is full of desperately poor people who would sell themselves or their kids into slavery/prostitution. Why would anyone risk themselves by kidnapping? I suspect something worse happened here.

update Madeleine McCann cops want to raid homes of three prime suspects who were working at holiday complex HTML: http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/madeleine-mccann-suspects-cops-want-3095609#.UutNHhB_vE0 British officers believe the men would have known the layout of the Ocean Club at Praia da Luz and been aware of the best escape routes for anyone taking a child Investigation: Madeleine McCann and Praia Da Luz Ocean Club ResortInvestigation: Madeleine McCann and Praia Da Luz Ocean Club ResortPA/Sunday Mirror Police hunting for missing Madeleine McCann want to raid the homes of three prime suspects and examine their bank accounts in the hunt for clues into her disappearance. British officers plan to quiz the trio , who were working at the holiday complex in Portugal where the three-year-old was snatched from her bed. They hope to look at their bank records to see if any large sums of money were placed in their accounts â which could indicate payment for a crime. The three men would have known the layout of the Ocean Club complex at Praia da Luz and been aware of the best escape routes for anyone taking a child. It would also have been possible for them to watch the movements of Madeleineâs parents Kate and Gerryâs on the night their daughter went missing in May 2007 as they ate tapas with friends near their *apartment. Detectives believe the suspects were behind a string of burglaries in the area in the weeks before the youngster vanished. One of the flats burgled at the Ocean Club is owned by a former British expat. It is in the same block as the one the McCanns rented. The man, who is in his 50s and wishes to remain anonymous, said yesterday: âTheyâd taken two mobile phones, a camera and some cash. There was no sign of forced entry. "I was convinced they had a key to get inside. I spoke to my neighbours, many of them expats, and Iâd say around 90% of them had experienced the same thing⦠valuable items going missing out of their *apartments. âI brought these complaints to the *attention of the Ocean Club but they were pretty much ignored. Nothing was done. âThis was about four weeks before Maddie went missing.â The expat was interviewed 18 months ago by Scotland Yard detectives â meaning officers have long suspected burglars could be *responsible for Madeleineâs kidnap. One theory is that burglars raided the McCannsâ apartment and were panicked into snatching her when she woke up. Nelson Rodrigues, who worked as a barman at the Ocean Club at the time the child, from Rothley, Leics, vanished, said it was âpossibleâ former workers had *something to do with the kidnap. But he added: âIn my opinion, itâs not likely. âI donât know what happened to her that night, but I would be very surprised if any of the workers had anything to do with it. âThere were quite a few staff who had access to keys. "Reception staff, the cleaners, and the maintenance men could all get into rooms. Waiters and barmen did not have access to keys. âI remember at the time things belonging to guests went missing now and then. "Mobile phones, cash, anything valuable lying around.â Reports in local media said the Ocean Club had around 130 Portuguese employees and 30 British staff when Madeleine went missing. Nelson also told how he joined the frantic hunt for Madeleine when her parents raised the alarm. He added: âI looked *everywhere for her. Around the pool, inside apartments, in the streets. "I kept looking until five in the morning, when my boss said, âOK, itâs time for you to go homeâ. âI saw Kate. She looked very upset. I heard her say, âI need a priestâ.â Scotland Yard officers flew to Faro in Portugal this week to meet with local police where they discussed the probe into the three ex-staff who are now suspects. British police first became suspicious of the staff after analysing mobile phone data. They discovered a high number of calls made by the three men in the hours leading up to Madeleineâs disappearance. Operation Grange, set up to reopen the case, has sent a second International Letter of Request to their *Portuguese *counterparts which addresses developments in the probe It deals with issues surrounding formal questioning of the men as well as searching their homes and looking into their bank accounts. The letter is now being dealt with by a court in the Algarve resort of Portimao. The Policia Judiciaria, the Portuguese force investigating Madeleine's disappearance, and the Attorney General refused to comment on the content of *Tuesdayâs meeting with Scotland Yard. A Policia Judiciaria spokesman said last night: âThe PJ confirms a meeting has taken place in Faro between British and *Portuguese authorities within the *framework of the *execution of an *International Letter of Request.â And the forceâs director Almeida Rodrigues added: âWe cannot say anything else because when we co-operate with our British colleagues we are bound by *professional secrecy.â The Scotland Yard team have now flown back to London. Last October, details emerged of a former worker who had been made a suspect by Portuguese police. Euclides Monteiro, 40, a waiter who had a conviction for theft, was asked to leave his job after being caught stealing tips. The immigrant from Cape Verde, died in a tractor accident in 2009. His family claim Portuguese police are using him as a scapegoat for Madeleineâs disappearance. Montieroâs close friend Sergio Paulo, 44, said: âToni was a good guy but had some serious drug problems. "He became a slave to heroin.â
news update : http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/201...intruder-sexually-abused-girls_n_4991731.html Scotland Yard are looking for a lone intruder who sexually abused young children during a series of break-ins at holiday homes in the Algarve, Portugal between 2004 and 2010 -the suspect is described as tanned and dark-haired and is suspected of breaking into 12 properties where British families were staying over that time period.
Whatever the case Para, there is a conspiracy. Either the parents have conspired to hide the body or a body of men are conspiring to hide a kidnapping.
