Hello from Tallinn,

Mr Juha Launokorpi (mobile : +358 400 7xxxxx, phone : +358 2 4xxxxx, e-mail : ingo@xxxxxxxxxx.com) saw this group today 3rd July 2007 at midday in old town Riga.
Mr Launokorpi said that woman kept all the time little girl's hand in her hand, which was not needed in the area because cars are not allowed there. Probably the girl was speaking English.

Mr Launokorpi brought this picture to the Embassy of Finland this afternoon because he estimated that the girl in Riga was very much like the girl which was kidnapped in Portugal this year. I read the e-mail just a few minutes ago.

Mr Launokorpi is in Riga until tomorrow, 9am and will fly to Finland tomorrow.

Best regards,
Ari Lahtela

I emailed Interpol last night 22nd July and have had no response to my email - Please can you tell me what you require - my cell no. in South Africa is 07820xxxxx - I tried to email Interpol again tonight and my emails would not go through to them (the matching codes.....

This is self explanatory from Interpol. Rome are very keen that the family are shown these to put them in or out as they are doing further work in the area. They have already been sent to Interpol Lisbon so the Incident Room may already have them. Can a decision be made out there as to what action will be taken and replied back to us as we are likely to get further chasers from Italy.

The report then continues thus :

.....anxious that these images be shown to
the parents asap. I note they've also been sent to Lisbon but maybe they can also be put through your end. The images have a good likeness despite the poor imagery.

Can you let me know what happens with these as Rome are expecting an update from me as they are making further enquiries in the area.

RE : Operation TASK - missing Madeleine Beth McCann, dob 12/05/03, pob Leicester (UK), British National missing since 03/05/07 in Praia da Luz (Portugal).

Further to previous correspondence, please be advised that our Police in Nocera have received a report that the said minor had been seen on 19th July 2007, on a bus travelling between Salerno and Cava de' Tirreni (Italy).

According to this report the minor was seen on a bus with 3 individuals aged around 35, of British Nationality, (2 male and 1 female).

The individual who saw the child took a number of photos of her and took video images of her with their mobile phone. They also noted that her right eye had an unusual pupil, like that of the missing minor.

Please find attached the photographs and images captured (we apologise for the quality of the material). We would ask you to advise us as a matter of urgency whether the girl shown in the attached images could be the missing minor.

We would add that Police have opened urgent Investigations in the area near the sighting. The results of these will be sent to you as soon as possible.

SUBJECT : Missing person, McCann, Madeleine Beth, dob 12/05/2003.

Dear Colleagues !

Please be advised that a private Swedish citizen Eva RISLUND, born 1949, called the local Interpol Office in Stockholm and said that she thinks she had seen the abducted child Madeleine twice during her visit to Spain last weekend.

Her story is as follows.

She visited a Hotel called Gardenia Park in Torre Blanco. On the 8th July 2007, at 08:00 am, she noticed a couple with two small children. She did not think that the children looked like they were sisters. One of them looked like her hair was cut with a very crude scissors and she wore sunglasses inside the Hotel. The other one, that she thinks could be Madeleine, had blond hair down to her shoulders, she was very pale. Rislund did not hear them speak. The man in the party was the person she noticed first, he did not look like a very nice person, he was heavily built and taller than 175 cms long, he had short hair and was tanned. She is positive that she should be able to recognise him if she saw a photo of him.

She states that she has been working with children all her life, so that is why she noticed them so much.

After that, her son and she were travelling in a rented car between Torrmolinos and Malaga on the A7 at about 9:00 pm. It was a traffic jam and she was looking out of the car window. Then a car passed them with the abovementioned persons in it. It was a Volvo S40, a few years old, dark blue, with a I/p "xx----xx". She does not remember the 4 figures in between but as she recalls it was No. 1 and No. 7 on the I/p. After she came home from Spain she has been looking at Internet and she is now even more convinced that she could have seen the missing child. Her....

Informant reported that whilst she was on holiday in Jerusalem on the 8th July 2007, she saw 3 males with a young girl. She believed the young girl to look like Madeleine MCCANN.

The informant suspects the males to be of "Sephardic" Jewish ethnic appearance and were initially speaking Hebrew with one another. They were wearing camel coloured trousers and light coloured jackets with no headwear. They then picked up the young girl, cuddled her and said to her in English, "OH, I'VE MISSED YOU". They took a photograph of them all together and then left in a green saloon CRYSLER(sic) index xx-xxx-xx.

Informant had been continually watching the news and was well aware of MCCANN's disappearance. Informant has seen numerous pictures of MCCANN and states that the girl looked just like her. She was white, had shoulder length dark blonde/light brown hair with a fringe. Informant could not get close enough to see the girl's eye colour. The girl was wearing a mid-length blue top, possible silk with a knee-length short skirt.

---------Incident Log--------------

Inft states she was in Israel on holiday. She has just returned. On the 8th July she believes she saw Madaline MCAIN.

She states that she didn't see her eye because they were about 20 yards away but everything about her matched the description.

Inft states that she was identical to the picture but she cannot confirm the eye.

Inft states that the child was with 3 Israelian males aged late 30's-40's. There were all darker skined with a Meditterranean look about them. Inft states that she knows the difference between Arabic and Hebrew language and they were definately talking Hebrew.

One of the males picked the child up and said "Oh Ive missed you". They then stood her down and they took a picture of her. The viewpoint where they were was the Montifiora Windmill overlookin the old city in West Jerusalem.

Inft could not recall any CCTV. However she said that it's likely they will have some. The viewpoint where they were had a Security Wall close by, they were also close ot a Church and the view where they were overlooked a big......



Page 2198 (Page 4 of 5 )


.....valley whereby concerts are played. She also states that they were approx 200 yards from the King David Hotel which has top Security because of its location so close to the landmarks.

After the males took a picture of the child they picked her up and carried her into their car, she seemed happy and had a new top on.

The Veh was a large sage/metallic green Criser with a number plate of "xxxxxxx". She states that the males obviously had money. There car was shiny and they were dressed casual yet still quite smart. Inft followed the males and the child back to the car but kept at the distance she was at. The Veh drove down out of a cul-de-sac and then onto the main road.
Inft did not see the males or child again.

Inft has taken so long to report because she rang her own children while she was away who said that she was just being silly and that they had been questioning suspects. Then when she arrived home she saw that they had been released and thought that it's worth reporting.....

Dear Sir,

The following report is of my non investigated witness as detailed in the report.

Subject
__________

The Investigation of Madeleine McAnn(sic) in Praia da luz as in the British press.

Occurence
____________

On Sunday 8-7-07 at Millenezza Pizzeria at the building complex that was named Centro City, I was sitting and reading a news paper. I observed a 4 year of age girl wearing a blue brimmed hat, she had obviously blond hair, shoulder length. she alighted off the escalator on the first floor ahead of a dark skinned couple both of whom were of medium height and slender to medium build for their respective gender. The woman was carrying a dark skinned child.

The male had short hair, the female possibly had hair to the lower neck and was wearing a cloth on the head (not obvious Muslim fashion). Her dress was to ankle length, the dress and head cloth were of a colour that I recall was of a mottled green. The male's shirt appeared similar in colour. His trousers may have been beige to olive in colour.

The 4 year girl was obviously white in colour, wearing long slaks. I could not see other adults near this child. I did not consider making any report at that time. My opinion was that reports from unidentified persons were possible made to distract the Police.

On Sunday 14-7-07 I communicated the report so far to an associate working in Centro....Note : Centro City). The associate replied that the man who owned the shop next door to the Pizzeria was a Morrocan. The Morrocan had a Mulatto girl friend who had a very white female child with blond hair and of 4yrs of age. He then described the build of the mother of the white child, the description is such that the dark skinned woman alighting off the escalator behind the child was definitely not the Moroccan shop owner's girl friend. The dak skinned couple could have been Asian or similar dark skinned nationality.

I do realise that at the time of abduction that Madeleine McAnn(sic) had a red shade to her hair.
I have made this report on the cognizance that she was reported seen in Malta. If this was genuine reports, the abductors must have sea vessels or access to aircraft travel & possibly document forging ability.

Sincerely
EB Frost

had been attracted by the bag Harrods, then the fact
that the small one did not speak French and that the
man called it Mad. You will find the mail below (1)
that I sent
'mail@bringmadeleinehome.com ', and
'enquiries@ceop.gov.uk ', 14H45 today Sunday 8th July
there was a French couple (30-35 years) with a small girl
resembling Maddie (but the hair cut to the square
and of russet-red colour a little fair dark) ; the Mister
appellait small "the Mad", it was in poussette, a bag
from Harrods (average black glazed paper size,
Harrods written in silver plated grey) there was hung.
The small girl rose and did not speak to them in
French ; it had the size of small a 3 year old girl. The
couple was equipped with clothing of black colour. The
woman had the long hair undulated a little, enough
ends. Both were of rather mean stoutness, average
size even if they did not rise. Both had the dark hair
(chatains dark, almost black). They played with the
small girl "Mad" with a carry-key along a cord like one
now makes (light blue), and with the keys there was a
key door square it seems to me inside with a red
drawing. This day, in Paris, Line 11, direction Town
Hall of the Lilacs. I looked at the small girl well before
leaving, it had large green eyes like Maddie. I returned at
home and I looked at the photographs of Maddie and
I thus decided to send this information. I am
descended to the Rambuteau subway. I travelled by
the subway in Belleville direction Town Hall of the
Lilacs, the couple was already in the subway when I
am assembled to Belleville. In fact the subway eteait
direction chatelet (Town Hall of the Li;acs it is in the
other direction). Today, in a female magazine I see a
photograph a little different of Maddie, which
resembles 98% with the small girl that I saw Sunday.
The man said to small "you want to play with the key
of mom"...One never knows ; perhaps that by
visualizing the videos subway.....I return this mail
because I did not have an answer to say to me if that
had been taken into account. Cordially, Courage.

In English :

It is has new mail (3) I send 3 mails in French to
inform you that I cuts seen in Paris has man and has
woman, 30 years with has little girl, she looks like
Maddie : Sunday, 8th July, Paris, 14H45-15H00 : a
couple whose man is french addresses to a small
girl by calling it "Mad" ; a small girl resembling Maddie
and which does not speak French ; she is in
poussette canes where a bag from Harrods is hung,
a woman who does not speak but which shakes a
large bunch of keys at the end of a light blue flat cord.
The couple has 30-35 years ; both have the very dark
hair, the woman has the long hair almost black and
corrugated. The man addresses himself to "Mad"
while saying to him "you want to play with the keys of
mom ?", it is that the only thing that I hear resemble
rather a "that" on behalf of the small girl. It is when it
calls it Mad which I think of following Maddie, then
the bag from Harrods. Poussette is turned towards
the couple, I cannot see the small one. Then to have
of it the c?ur Net before going down to my station I
will see the head of the small girl, his size. What
strikes to me are the eyes, the same glance as
Maddie. The hair is shorter and of fair the more
russet-red than on the video diffused on Internet. I
look at the photographs and I send continuation of
the mails. I do not telephone because I fear not to be
able to explain me in English, not to render
comprehensible me. This morning I look at an article
in "Current Woman" and the photograph is so close to
the small girl whom I saw in the subway. And the
scene is so credible, that I reconsider there
more I think that perhaps it is an index to be checked.
I thus hope that my mails aurao T read and/or will be
read very quickly. I join the elements to you which I
sent yesterday : Mail 2 Line 11, in the subway in Paris,
14H45 ; they moved towards Chatelet. I am

then there remains only the station Town Hall or

The report then continues thus :

Tel : 015092xxxxx (home) : 015092xxxxx (work)

He says he was on holiday in Tenerife.

On 4th July he was sitting outside a restaurant with his wife at a place called : La Caleta.

They saw three couples leave a house, number 7, across the road.

Each of the couples had a child with them. The last couple had a small girl with them.

The girl was crying and Mr Hudson clearly heard her say, "No".



20/07/2007



Page 2314 (Page 2 of 2 )


The three couples went towards a boat moored nearby. The girl was still crying and the man picked her up and carried her off up the road.

Mr Hudson thought this was strange and decided to follow the man to see where he went. However, on walking up the road himself the man and the child were nowhere to be seen and he could no longer hear the girl crying. He rejoined his wife and saw that the other two couples and the woman of the third couple were waiting by the boat but making no move to get on the boat. That was the last he saw of any of them.

Mr Hudson went on to say that the little girl he saw was about four years old and had the same hair as Madeleine, but he did not get a clear look at her face as the man was carrying her and her face was hidden by his shoulder.

I reported a sighting of Madeleine McCann to Torrevieja, Spain, Guardia
Civil Police on 12th July and have just heard from Alicante Police that
Torrevieja Police lost my statement so nothing has been done.

I had supplied them with a full car registration number and personal
descriptions.

Weeks ago I phoned CrimeStoppers, who took no details, and sent all my info
to the Madeleine Official Website. I wrote to the Chief Constable of
Leicestershire and to the Prime Minister.

I e-mailed the British Consul in Alicante this week and he told me to ring
CrimeStoppers and e-mail the Madeleine Website !!! I am tearing my hair.
Doesn't anybody care ? The only reply I have received is an acknowledgement of the letter to Gordon Brown.

PLEASE would you kick somebody into following up this sighting very very
thoroughly - and if the child they see isn't the absolute image of
Madeleine, they are not being shown the child I saw.

My contact in Alicante is a Senor Scarlos (it sounds like) on 0034 9651xxxxx who
is at Unidad Organica Policia Judicial, Alicante, email address a-cdm-alicante-pj-plm@guardiacivil.org
......

......and he speaks quite good English. He is the Officer who told me that
Torrevieja Police had lost my statement of 12th July.

Thank you.

I am Susan Haynes and I live in Torrevieja, Spain, at Cxxxx Lx Lxxx, xx, Sxxxx Gxxx Fxxx x, Planta 1, Apartment xx......

On Thursday morning, 12th July 2007 at 11am, I attended the jobcentre in
Torrevieja (which is called SERVEF and is at number 6 Calle Galeon,
tel 0034 9667xxxxx). I took a ticket from the queueing machine
and waited. I sat at first on a bench but moved to a chair with a
better view of the electronic display of queue numbers and
clerks' tables for each number to attend.

At about 11.30am a blonde haired woman of age about 30 years sat next
to me for about 20 minutes with a child who looked exactly like Madeleine
McCann.

The child was about 4 years old and wore a white cloche hat and blue
and white sundress. Her eyes were dark. I looked for the mark on the
right iris that Madeleine has, but these eyes were dark brown. (It is
possible to fit contact lenses to children and consider the stakes involved in
child trafficking).

The child had shoulder length, light brown-blonde hair and facial
features exactly as those in media pictures of Madeleine. No socks. White
sandals.

The blonde woman with her had hair in a pony tail. The hair looked
dyed and had some dark streaks showing but not, I think, downlights, rather
just bad dyeing or regrowth of dark roots etc. She wore a dark blue
blouse with white spots and short sleeves. The legs of her blue denim
jeans were folded over once to achieve mid calf length. White sandals. White socks.

The woman had obviously arrived before me for her ticket number was
lower than mine and she was eventually seen by the male clerk at table 3 at noon exactly.
Her queue ticket number was A084. I hope their computer system references ticket numbers
to records because the clerk was entering data as they spoke and the Police could therefore
find her name and address on the SERVEF computer. (I used to be an auditor and I am
evidence focused).

While she was waiting, the blonde woman and Madeleine went outside to a
car containing a young woman with a very small baby, and spoke. When
they came back inside, the woman and M-(sic) sat on a bench. Anticipating
that she might eventually leave in that car, I went outside and
memorised the car number etc.

Spanish plates, new car, grey colour, registration : 'xxxx xxx'.

(The woman and M did eventually leave in that car. I think the other
woman with the small baby drove)

The blonde woman and M clearly liked each other and conversed in
Spanish. I have heard on a TV relocation show that young English.....



Page 2324 (Page 3 of 4 )


..........children immersed in the Spanish Language can be fluent in 2 weeks -
Madeleine has been missing for 9 weeks, I think.

At the end of the blonde woman's interview at table 3, Madeleine and a
little Spanish boy she had met (as strangers, it looked like) and
played with while waiting, were called over to a female clerk at table
7 and given a sweet each.

After the blonde woman and M left, I thought the blonde female clerk at
table 4 remarked that the little girl looked like Madeleine. She then
went outside and made a call on her mobile. However, when I was
eventually seen at her table (number A095 my ticket) and asked her,
"Didn't that little girl look like Madeleine, the English girl lost in
Portugal ?", she said she hadn't noticed.

Torrevieja is a very Spanish town. NOT an English enclave, and few
people speak English there. I went home and wrote in English what I
had seen. I then wrote a short digest of that account in Spanish. I
got my Spanish O Level 43 years ago and don't get to use it much as I
am not yet working, but I manage if people speak slowly.

I took the English and Spanish accounts plus a newspaper article and
picture of Madeleine (sorry, Daily Express) round to the Guardia Civil Station
which is 2 minutes walk from my apartment. They were enthusiastically
received and carried off and I was asked to wait. Four hours later
they said i could go as they had my name and address.

At 9pm that night 3 Officers called for me and took me back to that
Station to see their "chief". He was in plain clothes. They went
through the Spanish digest with me in detail. The chief was holding
the longer English account and it was unmarked and I think they had
not translated it (yet). One of the Officers acted as interpreter quite
well.

One new fact emerged. They asked had the blonde woman used any other
language but Spanish and I remembered then for the first time that she
had said, "Neit", twice - "No", in Russian. This seemed of significance to
the Police Officers. I was with them for about 20 minutes.

Sorry.

I saw Madeleine in Torrevieja last week, and went to the Police with all
details but since then - nothing. I am haunted by her face - so sure
it was her - and I don't know that the Police followed up properly - I

Statement
Criminal Police Statement

Dear Mr Reis,

My name is Mrs Margaret McCombes.
I visited Seville, Spain, last Tuesday, 10th of July 2007 for 4 days. On my departure day, 13th July 2007, I visited Seville Cathedral before going home. It was 10.25 am approx, Seville time, when I saw 4 adults, 2 men 2 women, 3 children.
The younger couple of the adults moved away with baby in pushchair when they saw us near to them. The ages were approx early 30's. Baby about 8 months. The other 2 adults were about mid to late 30's. 1 boy about 7 and a half + years. 1 girl about 4 years.
The girl had no top on her body. She only wore little blue shorts, also pink beach shoes. Anyway the woman with the girl and boy went to the shop and bought a T -shirt and trousers for the girl. The T-shirt was white, the trousers were royal blue with white hoops. They also bought her some white sandals. She, (the woman), put the new clothes on the girl. The wee boy was fully clothed with a Cacay (sic) T-shirt and trews were lighter Cacay 3quarter length. The man, woman, boy and girl were all standing together. I had drawn my husband's attention just beforehand and said, "That looks like little Madeline McCann". But my husband thought at first a slight bit like he. he said, "There is something not right about her eyes". Anyway my husband had to go to the Bank at the opposite side of the street. I still stood on the side where the couple were with the children. They were just ahead of me. I carried on behind them. I could see the other couple away down the far end of the road, looking up at my direction.
Then the woman and the wee girl stopped together with the man and the boy. The woman had the girl by the hand most of the time. They let me walk by them and I did so. And I then turned...?...?...
(Note : Two illegible words here). The man and the woman were both.......

Page 2330 (Page 2 of 5 )


.........looking at me. So I stopped in my tracks. I could see the man getting a bit worried. He then crossed over to the Bank. I think he went into the Bank, but I don't know if the boy did or not. I just couldn't see him anywhere then. The woman kept facing towards the Bank. I was looking at her and the wee girl. I thought, "What can I do to get the wee girl's attention ?". I couldn't shout "Madeleine", I might have put her in a situation. I know the wee girl has twin siblings, Shaun and Amalee (sic) as I've saw it often enough on TV. So I decided to call my husband who was still at the cash machine. I shouted his name. As it's 'John', sounds like Shaun, maybe the wee girl will respond to me. So I gave a loud shout "JOHN". "JOHN" again I called, and the wee girl looked at me, screwing her wee face up. I could see her wee button nose. I thought, "My God, this is Madeleine McCann". The wee girl dropped herself to the ground and sulked after that. I kept looking. By this time my husband called me so just before I crossed I saw the woman go down whispering to the wee girl. Then I looked at the woman and she looked at me with her dark glasses on. She sat down in the same position of the child. Her husband, I asumed, came back across. But I never saw the boy again. I joined my husband. We both into the Bank and spoke to a lady about our money. She said it cancelled and we would have to go to another Bank. I said "Where did they go to that couple ?". We hurried along the road and saw all the couples together again and the wee.....




Page 2331 (Page 3 of 5 )


.........boy was there too. They were all standing and we caught up with them once again. The younger couple went to the opposite side of the road again. I thought, "This is strange". I plucked up the courage and said to my husband to ask these people where the nearest cash machine was. My husband asked them and as one went to say, "We don't know", they both replied, in broken English, "We don't come from here". My husband couldn't get a good look at the wee girl as the woman put her hand round the girl's back and the wee girl held her head to the ground with her fingers in her mouth. So I then said to my husband, "Let's ask someone else". The young boy looked very sad and also the wee girl. There was the maternal instinct from neither of them. I'm positive this was Madeleine McCann 75%. We then asked someone else for the Bank and they directed us. We were then being watched by the other couple. So we just walked away out of their view. As we were leaving the other Bank we looked up and they were all standing across the road and when they saw us they all proceeded up a side street. We pretended not to see them. Then we looked back and the man was looking back at us, and that's the last I saw of them. There were no Police around. No one. We decided when we get home we would contact Leicester Police which I think would be slow prossess(sic).
This is why I've contacted you. Please find Madeleine, as I'm sure you will.

Yours Sincerely

Mr Reis
Criminal Police

Dear Sir,

My name is John McCombes.

On Tuesday 10th of July, my wife and I went to Seville for a short break. On Friday the 13th of July my wife and I went to the centre of Seville to see the Cathedral and the Plaza De Toros, as we were going home later that night. We got to the centre by the Hotel bus which dropped us off at Puerta De Jerez at approx 10.30am local time. We started to walk towards the Cathedral and I needed to go to a Bank to get some money. My wife said to me, "John, don't look too quick but look to your right at the shops over there". I saw a group of people, 3 adults and 3 children outside. One of the women went into the shop doorway and was met by a man who gave her a white T-shirt to put on a little girl, as she did not have a top on and onlyhad light blue shorts on. This little girl was about 4 years old with fair to blonde hair. My wife asked me if I think she looked like wee Madeleine. I said, "I'm not too sure. There was something about her cheeks and her eyes that wasn't right". At first I was trying to get a better look without looking too..?..
(Note : reads like "ouevs??"... whatever it is possibly meant to indicate "obvious" or "nosey")....to the people in the group that I was looking. My wife said, "You go to the Bank over there and I'll be here". I tried to take money out of a cash machine on the Avenida De La Constitucion across from the Cathedral and it did notgive any money out, only a receipt which said 'Operacion Cancelada'. That was at 10.32am. I rejoined my wife and told her. She said, "We will go down here", as this group of people went down along the Avenida De La Constitucion towards the bottom end of the Cathedral. My wife was saying to me she was quite sure it was Madeleine and was hoping to get a better look if possible. As I was walking down I was looking to see where the people were. Then my wife shouted, "JOHN, JOHN", and I looked at her. She said, "It's down there". I said, "MARGARET", quite loud and shouted, "Where abouts ?". My wife called me over and then asked me to ask the people for directions for the Bank. So I crossed over to them. There was only adults / man / woman and 2 kids, a boy aged about 7 to 8 years old. The.......



Page 2335 (Page 2 of 2 )

......other was the little girl aged about 4 years old. I saw that she had trousers on which I did not see on her earlier and new white shoes. The trousers were blue and white hoops in...?...(Note : I'm unclear re what this word is, reads like "Desien"). I ask if they could tell me where the nearest Bank to get money from was. I also said, "Banko", so they could understand me. They said to me, in broken English, "Oh, sorry. We don't come from here. The woman said, "We come from Portu...", and then stopped halfway through a sentence. I think she was about to say "Portugal". The little girl kept her head down and to her right-side so I could not get a good look at her. And she put her finger in her mouth. She didn't say anything at all. The boy had dark brown hair and was also quiet and did not look happy, or any kind of expression, and just stood with his hands straight down by his side. The man was about mid to late 30's, about 5' 8" tall, slim face, with brown hair. He had a light beard outlining his jaw and chin, and a moustache which came down and joined the beard. He also wore metal rimmed glasses. The woman was about 5' 4" tall, dark hair, with a pale complexion. She was also in her mid to late 30's and had dark sunglasses on which were quite big and covered part of her face. The little girl's hair was about shoulder length, just slightly over her ears and was that kind of length all the way round, and there was like a gap where her fringe was. I said, "Thanks anyway", and they smiled and walked away. I stopped a young woman and asked her so I did not look as I just ask them. We got a Bank which was on the corner of Jimios Castille, just across from the Cathedral. As my wife and I walked from the Bank we saw the group of people looking over from a street at the side of the Cathedral. When we looked at them, they walked away. There was no Police about to tell and we agreed to report this as soon as we got home to the UK. The name of the street at the side of the Cathedral is Alemanes, which leads on to the Argote De Lolina, Don Remondo and the Plaza Virgen De Los Reyes at the back of the Cathedral. I hope this helps you to find Madeleine, as I know you will be doing your utmost to do so. As you have been doing up to date.

Yours Sincerely,

I am not sure if this will be of interest to you.

Myself and my mother returned yesterday from our holiday in Rhodes, Greece.
Whilst we were there we ate in the same Taverna every evening and last week,
noted a table of four adults and one child. Three of the adults appeared to be English, and one was dark skinned and looked as if he may have been Greek. The child was a young girl who resembled Madeleine very much. She seemed very unhappy and hardly uttered a word and did not smile at all for the whole time they were in the Taverna. The adults virtually ignored her, even when she was trying to get attention from the younger woman of the group. She stayed near their table for most of the time. On the one occasion that she walked past our table, I tried to get her to talk to me so that she would come closer and I could get a look at her eyes but she did not utter a word and only looked at me directly when she was some distance away. She came and stood directly behind my mother at one point, but again did not speak. I could not at any point get a photograph without being seen doing so by the people at the table.

By this point several other people had taken a very strong interest in her and this was very noticeable. The adults began to look very uncomfortable and left soon after.

The girl had noticed me watching her and as they were leaving she glanced back at me several times.

Because I could not be 100% sure without seeing her eyes, and because I had not obtained a photo, we decided it would be best to see if they returned to the Taverna, and if so I would try again. The older two adults returned on several occasions but not the two younger ones and the girl.

Page 2344 (Page 4 of 4 )


One man was approx 60 years old, approx 5' 8/9", slim build, very thin legs, a grey curley mullet type hairstyle, shoulder length and a heavily wrinkled face. He had a Cockney accent and was a heavy smoker. He seemed to have noticed my interest in the girl and approached me on the 3rd occasion that I saw him to find out where I was staying or if I lived on the Island. At this stage I found out that he and his wife are regular visitors to Rhodes and are having a Villa built there.

His wife was approx 60 years old, medium build with a slight tan, approx 5' 5" with short grey straight hair, cut to shoulder length with a brushed-back style. I did not speak to her.

The younger woman was approx 30 to 35 yrs old, heavy build, approx 5' 5/6", shoulder length dark brown hair brushed back, with a prominent nose profile. She also was a heavy smoker.

The 2nd man was of Mediterranean looks. I mainly saw him from behind only but may have been mid forties in age with short cut dark hair (I think grey at the temples) and was approx 5' 10" tall.

On leaving the restaurant on the first occasion, they got into a white car which the younger man drove. It was not a hire car, so they may live on the Island.

On occasions after that, the older couple left in a silver, poss Nissan car which again was not a hire car.

The older couple seemed to be regulars at the Taverna and are known to the owners.

If this is of any interest to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.
