approximately 2 weeks ago my friend and i were having a meal at the
paderborn restaurant in buggibba(sic) in malta, we were sat outside and 2
black african men in i would say early twenties walked past us carrying
a white little girl around 4 years old, my friend and i both looked
because she had a floppy hat on and black sunglasses and it was dark at
the time, we both looked at each other and were both thinking , is it
madelene(sic), but both said no she can't be here in malta, watching the news
this morning, malta was mentioned so i thought i should report it, the
restaurant is on naderborn st in bugibba, i live in malta and my address.....

(Note : Here, is a handwritten entry of 12 lines, in the Portuguese Language, which refers to a reported sighting in Ipanema, Brazil. Report made to Police in New York City. This entry may have overwritten part of this report).

The report then continues thus :

On 7th June 2007, Cheda, f/n Jesus, was in Ipanema, Brazil when he saw who he believes to be McCann, f/n Madeleine. Dr Cheda states he observed a tall white male with light brown hair sitting with a young girl (who he believes to be the missing) at an outdoor cafe on the Nosimento es Silva.
What struck him as peculiar was how the girl and the male were not interacting. Dr Chea states he later saw the same man and girl on the Vienes de Morales heading towards the beach, still not acting like they knew each other.


Page 1684 (Page 2 of 2 )

Cheda, f/n Jesus, states that he has seen pictures of the missing child on the Brazilian Online News Source : Folha de Paulo. Dr Cheda also states that the young girl he saw had "brownish" hair, similar to a photo of the missing on that website.

I saw the car on three different occasions twice at the local Alisupermarket in the morning. at Gal?and once at the beach were again the little girl had to look at the sea from inside the car. I never got too close or they drove off. I have finally after 2 days found the small piece of paper I wrote the car number on xx xx xx.

Sir,
Malta progress to date is as follows :
1. We have A1198 in with Interpol, poss sighting Msida.
2. A1775, poss sighting Qawra, in to Interpol.
3. Email sent from me to Task Portugal at 18:22, 18th June, which was from the Maltese re a poss sighting in Valetta.

There will be two further emails after this one, both to me from ....
(Note : Next line indecipherable other than final 3 words, "have been informed").


(
Note : Here : is a handwritten entry of 11 lines, in the Portuguese Language, dated 27th June 2007, which refers to reported sightings in Malta and to John Hughes (DC). This entry appears to have overwritten part of this report)

The report then continues thus :

take some time to do this request to Malta.
Most replies we get back from other countries don't take us far, as many can't be verified or discounted, and I feel these will be the same.
Can we ask the Portuguese for some input as what we do with them, i.e. are we going to ask for all the people who ring in with similar children to be seen and timelined against the other sightings.

Page 1701 (Page 2 of 2 )

This will obviously be a fairly big project and will impact on the other sighting's work.

To whom it may concern

I took a call from Lauren PEMBERTON (1415 09/07(sic)/2007), she is currently staying at a resort called Los Aqueros, this is near a village - Benahavis, which is close to Marbella. This appears to be a golf resort.

They arrived on monday and they have heard occaisions(sic) since they have been there, of a child crying.

They have seen no other children at the resort since they started their holiday. she is one of five adults and two young children.

The other apartments at the resort, do not appear to have any other occupants and the shutters are down on a number of the properties.

She states that she has been in touch with the spanish authorities and the Portuguese police, but she has been told that there is no one working on the "maddie" enquiry until monday and that they will look at the incident then.

They have no rep. as they booked the apartment off the internet.

I have advised them to go to the sales office and make enquiries as to....

'Missing' child baffles cops
08/06/2007 14:55 - (SA)

Verashni Pillay

Cape Town - Mystery surrounded the disappearance of two men and a child on Friday, as police searched for the trio who were spotted fleeing up Table Mountain on Thursday proved fruitless.

Police spokesperson, Superintendent Jones told News24 that the search party had found "absolutely nobody".

"They have searched the area from Cape Town to Rhodes Memorial and from De Waal Drive up to the mountain", he said. The search party, comprising various units, were breaking for lunch at 14:00 on Friday, and would "assess the situation after lunch, and decide whether to continue or not".

Police have still not found any reports of missing children who match the descriptiuon of the little boy who was seen with the men, and is believed to be between the ages of two and three. According to Jones, there were also no hijackings in which children had been involved.

Suspicions were aroused after plain-clothed policemen stuck in traffic in an unmarked car saw two men of colour walking down De Waal Drive in Cape Town with a toddler who appeared to be white.

When they got out of the car to question the men, the two grabbed the child and fled.

"The policemen gave chase but the men disappeared up Table Mountain", Jones said.
"They then called for back-up as is procedure".

But while a police helicopter and Wilderness search-and-rescue workers in 4x4's combed the area after the incident, no trace of the trio was found and search operations were suspended when it became too dark to continue.

On Friday morning, the search had resumed on foot with police appealing to the public for more information.

Anyone with information that may help the investigation should contact the joint operations centre on (021) 506-2322.

Marius Louw, Die Burger

Cape Town - A massive search is underway after two men allegedly grabbed a young boy and fled up Table Mountain after being approached by police.

Police spokesperson Billy Jones says three detectives, who wer in an unmarked car, became suspicious after seeing a white child walk down De Waal Drive with two black men.

The cops had been stuck in traffic.

Jones says when they got out of the car to question the men, the two grabbed the child and fled.

The toddler is probably between two and three years old, says Jones.

A police helicopter took part in the search until it became too dark. Wilderness search-and-rescue workers - some of them in 4x4's - helped comb the area, but no trace could be found of the trio.

The search was suspended when it became too dark.

Jones says they'd made enquiries at all the police stations in the area, but there were no reports of missing children.

"There also weren't any hijackings in which children had been involved".

He said the search for the men and child was scheduled to resume on Friday morning.

Anyone with information can contact the joint operations centre on (021) 506-2322.

Cape Town - A combined manhunt for the child seen taken up the slopes of Table mountain by two unknown men resumed "shortly before 09:00" on Friday, Western Cape police told News24.

"Various people from neighbouring stations are assisting us", said police spokesperson Superintendent Billy Jones.

Helping Cape Town police in their search are Table Mountain National Park Rangers, the SA Navy Dog Unit and Wilderness search-and-rescue workers, amongst others.

But no trace has been found of the missing trio, on the second day of the search.

Jones said wind and rain hampered the use of a helicopter, but a ground search had resumed.

No child matching the description of the missing boy has been reported as missing, but police are still searching.

Suspicions were aroused after plain-clothed policemen stuck in traffic in an unmarked car saw two men of colour walking down De Waal Drive in Cape Town with a toddler who appeared to be white.

On the day in question, as they were taking a stroll in town, they had spotted a little girl on a verandah. She was riding a tricycle and said 'Hello' to them in English as they passed by her. A few days later, they took the bus to Valetta. They believe they saw the same girl on the bus, in the company of a bald man. Having read the story about the disappearance in the newspaper, they think the girl they spotted on the verandah in Buggiba, Malta, matches the picture of Madeleine published in the newspaper.

 Statement Date : 29th June 2007


On Sunday 2nd June 2007 myself and my husband (Sam JESS) went on holiday to Fuengarola,
Costa Del Sol, Spain. On Sunday 9th June 2007 I was walking in Fuengarola Marina with my husband. At about 2:30 (PM) Spanish Time we had a coffee at a cafe nearby. When we got up we stipped to watch a wee (small(sic)) girl feed the fish. When she and the adult male with her had finished, we followed them out of the Marina. The girl fell and hurt her knee and the male called her "Maddie" and said something like "Your mother will be wondering what I've been doing with you". I knew about Madeline(sic) MCCANN and so I made a pretence of photographing the Towers but it was to get a photo of the girl.

The man was behind me and my husband had walked ahead. The man said, "I'll take a photo of you and your husband". I said, "No, we don't do group photos". He said, "I'll take your's then". But I declined.

Then they walked off.

I would describe the man as 30's to 40's, broad build, 5'5" - 5' 6", mousy brown hair, reddish face, wearing a white
short sleeve shirt
, white shorts. He had an English accent with no noticable regional accent. He looked like a young DALZIEL out of the "DALZIEL and PASCOE" television programme. I formed the opinion that he was an ex-pat living in Spain.

I could identify him again

Statement Date : 4th July 2007

I am the above named person and I currently live at the address overleaf. Between the 5th and 19th of June 2007, my partner Nicole Etherton and I were on holiday in Malta.

On Monday the 11th of June 2007 we visited the town of Valletta. At between 12 midday and 1.30pm we had just purchased ice cream and Nicole had walked slightly ahead of me. The ice cream stall was situated near to a cinema on the corner of Ir Repubblika and Santa Lucija. As I walked to catch up with Nicole I walked across the Ir Repubblika towards the St John's Cathederal.

It was at this point I noticed an elderly male walking towards me and his left hand was holding the right hand of a young female. This struck me as being very odd as something about the couple looked not quite right, as though they shouldn'd be together.

The young girl was White, and about 4 years old, 4ft tall and a thin build. She had straight blonde hair which came down to just past her shoulders. Her hair had a fringe which was straight across her mid-forehead. She had no distinctive marks, moles or scars, but she did not appear to..(word illegible here).....

I have just spoken to Len SIMMONS and Diane SIMMONS of Mxxxxxxx Hxxxx, Hxxxxxxx Rxxx, Linton, Cambs - Tel : 012238xxxxx - re a possible sighting of Madeleine on 11th June 2007 in Torrevieja, Spain. This info had previously been passed by their security advisor to the Incident Room, who stated that his clients wished to remain anonymous. Therefore we only had unsubstantiated and scant info.
However, after having spoken again to the security advisor the details were passed to me and I was able to contact the Simmon's.

Both are well to do business people and are not interested in any reward on offer.

They briefly state that about 3pm on 11th June 2007 they were waiting to catch a No 8 bus from the harbour area in Torrevieja, outside the Maritime Museum with Diane's sister, Eilleen, who lives in the town. Whilst waiting they saw a black female with a white child which they thought was the spitting image of Madeleine sat on the kerb at the bus stop. They all got on the bus together and sat close to each other. The bus ride was 10 to 15 minutes in duration and all 3 witnesses got a good view of the little girl.

Both the female and the child were heard to speak. The female has been described as having an Essex type of accent, and referred to the little girl as 'Babe'. At one point she told the little girl to 'close her legs or she would go in the naughty cupboard'.

The little girl was heard to ask, Where's the bus go ?", and, "Why is your hair like that ?". Described as speaking well.

They got off the bus at an Area called Urbanisation Phase 3, which is a lower standard housing development.
The witnesses had the little girl in their sights for about 15 to 20 minutes and all are convinced that it was Madeleine. Diane is 99.9% certain. She had her hair in a pony tail.

Eilleen is contactable on Tel : 0034 9667xxxxx.


(Note : Here, is a handwritten entry of 7 lines, in the Portuguese Language, which refers to the reported sighing in Spain, on 11th June 2007, by the 3 witnesses, Len & Diane Simmons, and Eilleen)

Your message 4H-2395710-07 of 30th May 2007 concerning the disappearance of Madeleine Beth McCann, born 12th May 2003. With regard to the information supplied to the Police by Lakas Hermansson (LH) concerning the missing girl in the Urbanizacion Mil Palmeras, we wish to inform you that we have found the swimming pool referred to by the informant. It is on the premises of the Olimpia Restaurant, a complex covering a considerable area. Ther are no commercial outlets nearby the Restaurant. The complex staff indicated that it is frequented mainly by British Nationals. The photograph of the missing girl did not seem familiar to the staff although they did know about the case from extensive media coverage.

There are basically 2 commercial zones on the Urbanizacion Mil Palmeras.
Neither of them has an English or Irish pub. The establishments are run by (Spanish) Nationals and their names and what they sell is not referred to by foreign names although they are aimed at foreign Nationals.

We have only been able to find 1 Irish pub on the Urbanizacion Mil Palmeras. It is run by and is within the hotel Manoli Hotels owned by the company Manoli Alquileres SL.

When asked, the staff of this pub stated that it was normal to see children with their parents when the latter go to the pub for a drink, including late at night.

13/06/2007



Page 1795 (Page 3 of 3 )

The waiters/barmen at this establishment had no knowledge of either the incident or the characteristics of the persons mentioned in the information supplied by LH. However, they were aware of the case of Madeleine Beth McCann.

We also located the location where LH stayed (Playa-23). It is a block of apartments close to the commercial area, near the taxi rank and the Saura Supermarket.

All of these details have been taken into account in terms of distance and time. It is quite a distance from the zone in question to the Irish pub which has been found.

It has not been possible to establish the identity of the couple or the girl who spoke to the informant. Neither has it been possible to establish where they stayed.

If possible, please send us more precise information since with..that held(???)..((?without that?)) it is not possible to take checks further.

Information

 

 

At 10.20 today, Sub Chief Henriques nº 70, appeared before me, Principal Officer Luis Miguel Costa Teixeira, to give me the following information:

 

A woman named Lisete, wit ID card N****, told him that she knows of a girl whom she suspects to be Madeleine, because of her age and appearance.

 

Lisete has a daughter who studies at the Escola Básica dos Caraguejais in the third grade and who has a fellow student named Vital André Jilk, who uses crutches and whose mother brings him to school every day between 8 and 9 in the morning, also taking the girl along.

 

According to Lisete’s daughter, Vital supposedly has a sister whom she thinks is Madeleine, because she has seen her and the mother always tries to hide her and because Vital does not like to talk about his sister and that this family is of English origin.

 

Sub Chief Henriques also told me that he knows that this family was in the Algarve at the time of Madeleine’s disappearance.

 

That is all I have to inform you.

Sir/ Madam,

Please find the enquiries carried out for your operation. Patrol has taken a statement from the witness who alleges to have seen Madeleine in the 'GRILL', Broadstairs High Street, Kent.

Patrol has attended the 'GRILL' to view any possible in-house CCTV. However there is no systems set up. Patrol spoke with staff at the 'GRILL' to see if they could remember anything from that date, however this has been negative.

A CCTV form has been completed for review of Broadstairs High Street, between the times of 1200 hours and 1400 hours, to pay attention to a black 4x4, index unknown.

Kent Police reference : 2007 0604-1011

Dear Sirs,

On June 14th 2007 I was in Monreale, Palermo, Italy, and I saw a little gilr being watched over by an older girl. They I believe were with the venders(sic). She was trying to leave. It was up and around the stairway, where all the venders were. It bothered me. After I was home I saw the picture of Madeleine Beth McCann on TV. But I had no idea where I was until my friend sent me a disc of the pictures. Unfortunately she is not on my pictures. Only the name of where I was.
All I knew was I was in Palermo. At the time she was dressed in a darkish green plaid dress. My husband said they were sisters, I didn't think it looked like that. This little girl has been strongly on my mind. I am 72 years old, of sound mind, a retired nurse.

Driving on the N270 in Portugal near Messines, we saw a Traveller family coming towards us on the other side of the road in a typical horse and cart with numerous passengers all with quite dark skin and hair, with the exception of one child in someone's arms who appeared to be quite blonde. I understand the Traveller community in Portugal has been extensively investigated and do not want to appear discriminatory but both my wife and I have been unsettled about what we saw and felt we should tell somebody about it.

We hope this helps.

I am a Journalist from the Guardian and am

I was contacted this morning by a member of the public who says he has seen a child who he thought might be Madeleine some weeks ago. He said he has reported this to yourselves and to the findmadeleine.com website but has not had any response.
You may be working on this or have discounted it but I need to pass this on to you obviously.
The man's name is Dr Seamus Hegarty and his numbers are 078549xxxxx or 0200899xxxxx.
He says he saw a little girl who he thought was remarkably like Madeleine while at a professional conference in Budva, Montenegro, on June 15th 2007.
He is an educationalist and child specialist.

I have just witnessed something very strange.

I am in Javea-Spain. ---- I was travelling towards Javea with my wife on the Jesus Pobre road and just outside Javea at approx 12.30, we saw two people carriers parked at the side of the road. facing towards Javea.

From one, either a dark blue or black colour, a man emerged carrying a little girl under his arm, like a sack of potatoes and please, I don't exaggerate. She had pale blonde hair, and wearing either a dress, or matching shorts and top, of floral dark pink or red.
The man RAN to the vehicle in front and as I drove by, he placed the little girl in the other vehicle a light grey colour. By the time I had managed to stop and took in what had occurred the two vehicles moved off. I asked my wife to write down the number of the light grey vehicle.
'xxxx xxx'. Sorry I didn't get either make of vehicle.

I kick myself for not getting more info. It happened so quickly, and I did not get my brain into gear fast enough.....so I am so so very sorry, and extremely cross with myself.

Because of the language problem I went to the Tourist Office and asked them to report to the Police but they sent me to the Police, where, after a discussion with the tourist board they sent me to the Guadia Civil in the centre of Town to report.
I haven't been, as they would probably send me somewhere else ..
I have tried the Crimestoppers number without success, so I just hope you are more on the ball, than my efforts so far.

Informative Note

Subject: Information given by Isabel Gonz?ez about a girl she saw in Zaio and who could be Madeleine McCann, who recently disappeared from the Algarve (Portugal).


The undersigned inspector who is writing to the PJ belongs to the Interior Ministry of Melilla.

That he has received the notes attached, signed by the Service Coordinator last night, where reference is made to the witness account made by Isabel Gonz?ez, who states that yesterday at about 12.30 in the main square of Zaio, Morocco, she saw a girl who appeared to be Madeleine, the small girl who disappeared on 3rd May from the Algarve.

The undersigned officer has been in contact by phone with Mrs Gonz?ez, who, with total sureness has reaffirmed her first statements, broadening the information relating to the circumstances of the encounter, the physical characteristics of the girl as well as those of the woman who accompanied her, as follows:

- The encounter with the small girl took place in the main square of Zaio, at the precise moment when she was travelling slowly in the vehicle driven by her husband, when she saw a woman crossing at a distance of three or four metres, the woman was middle aged, dark skinned, wearing a chitaba and headscarf and was leading a young girl by the hand, which drew her attention due to the contrast with the woman, given that the little girl had very white legs, white skin, was slim and with an unmistakably European appearance, which led her to look more carefully and also observe that she had very blond long hair, tied back in a pony tail, covered by a beige coloured cloth.

- At a given moment the girl lifted her head and she could see her face clearly and to her surprise she thought she recognised her as the English girl ? Madeleine ? whose disappearance in Portugal had been announced and whose image had been spread by the media.

- The physical description of the girl, according to information from the witness, is the following: Aged about 5 years, between 100 and 110 cm tall, very slim, very white skin, blond hair with a pony tail at the back, wearing a green dress that came to her knees, a beige headscarf and wearing sandals.

The witness alerted her husband to what she had seen and made him park the car and they returned to the square to confirm her suspicions but upon doing this, neither the woman nor the girl were there.

The husband of Isabel Gonz?ez with whom the undersigned inspector has spoken, ratifies the version given by his wife, with the only safeguard that he did not see the childs face, but that he has no doubt that judging from her external appearance she was of European origin and for that reason stood out from the other inhabitants of the area.

Re our telephone conversation of Saturday 16th June 2007.

A witness statement was taken by the Police of Rotterdam of a person who thought to have seen Madeleine on a beach in Scheveningen. She was able to take a picture.
We made several attempts to mail the picture to your office without result.
Please find encluded in this letter a copy of the picture taken by a witness at the beach of Scheveningen/NL.

Please note that this picture has also been sent to the Police of Portimao after being advised by Mr Gomes and Mr Tavares. We have had contact with Antonio of the Team on Saturday and he informed that all angles are looked at but that due to the amount of tips the workload is enormous.
We comprehend that so we will leave any answers in this case at your convenience.

Above-mentioned has been responded by us to the Police of Rotterdam but they insist to contact the Team in Portimao themselves. We have not been able to convince them to leave the matter at the convenience of the Portuguese Authorities.

For your information.

Subject : Missing Maddie

Further to my phone call I write the information as requested.

My husband and I returned from holiday in Malta last night.

On Sunday night he was finishing his drink in a cafe/taverna across from our hotel ( Plaza Hotel, Sliema, Malta) and I had returned to our room - it was about 11.30 in the evening. The following morning, over breakfast, he seemed pre-occupied and then said that he had seen something strange after I had left the previous evening and that it was playing on his mind. He had seen a man in his 40's of what he thought was of Arabic or Middle Eastern origin, holding a little girl's hand, and a woman, quite a bit younger than the man. As they passed the little girl tripped and the man said '.......little girl......'. This struck my husband as strange as we have 2 daughters of our own and he would have said, 'are you alright Exxx/Dxxxxx.....', as a caring father. Then he noticed the little girl's hair. It was pitch black and very thick and cut in an unusual style for a child of that age/size - it was so unusual that it looked more like a wig than proper hair. They then seemed to see something and dashed across the road up a side-street which tourists would not use.

Main Subject : Kidnapping and Hostage Taking

Dear Colleagues,

The following is a synopsis, as prepared by the CID from the Malta Police, concerning an alleged sighting of missing person Madeleine McCann :

On the 17th June 2007 at around 2200hrs, two British tourists reported to the Police that earlier on during the day (noon) they had seen a young girl who they strongly believed was Madeleine McCann - abducted in Portugal in May of this year.

Upon receipt of this information, the two female tourists ( twin sisters) were further interviewed by detectives from the CID and they both explained that on the 17th June 2007 at around 0830hrs, they had gone to the market-place in Valletta. At around midday, they went to the Bus Terminus to board the Bus back to Bugibba. While at the Terminus, waiting for Bus number 49, they noticed a little girl accompanied by a woman who was right in front of them in the queue. Within minutes, they boarded the Bus and were talking to the girl all the way to St Paul's Bay. The woman who was accompanying the girl was sitting right in front of these two persons on the Bus. The girl was very easy going with these two women and started chatting with them.

It was at this point that one of these informers noticed that the girl highly resembled Madeleine McCann who was reported missing in Portugal on the 3rd of May 2007. In fact, they both remarked that they had been seeing photographs of the absentee for the past weeks and that the girl in front of them had a lot of similarities to the girl shown on these photographs. They also included a particular spot in the girl's right eye.

On the Bus, the woman accompanying the girl stopped the latter from talking to these women for a number of times and did not look back at them as if she was trying to hide her face. However, they also managed to get a clear mental picture of this woman. At one moment in time, the girl was observed to become nervous and was saying to this lady, "You're not my mum and not my nanny". Both the girl and the woman then disembarked the Bus next to the Bugibba Quay at St Paul's Bay. Upon going down from the Bus, this lady was observed by looking at the two twin women in a suspicious manner. At that moment, they thought that she was trying to see whether they were still following her.

Dear Colleagues,

Further to our _007 of this series, please note that the following additional information has been provided by the individuals alleging to have sighted the girl.

The twin sisters claim that the girl seemed to have a habit of biting her lower lip.

They also stated that the gold sovereign ring which she was wearing was made of thin gold-looking material and featured a small round top (no embedded jewels etc).

The following information is being referred for any further action you may deem necessary.

In the meantime, CCTV footage of a number of locations in the vicinity of the alleged sightings is currently being collected and checked by the Maltese Police.

You will be kept informed of any developments as they occur. If you have any additional information regarding possible suspects, which could be of use to our investigators in Malta, this would be highly appreciated.

Best regards,

Edward Mangion,

Dear Colleagues,

Further to our earlier communications concerning this matter, it would be greatly appreciated if you could provide us with the following additional information if this is available to you :

- Can it be confirmed that the missing girl actually speaks in a Scottish accent ?

- Has there been any indication that any Maltese telephone numbers have been used to contact any of the suspects in this case ? If in the affirmative, would you be able to provide us with these numbers so that we can run checks on them ?

- From further questioning of the individuals who claim to have spotted the girl, it was established that the girl had asked them, "do you come from the other side of the plane(sic) where the rain is ?". This could indicate that the girl spoken to by the witnesses had been in a country with rainy weather. It would be greatly appreciated if you could indicate whether this information would tie-in with other details you might have established in the course of your own investigations.

Best regards,

Dear Task,

I have been advised to contact you regarding Madeleine.

I have just returned from Morocco and have done everything that I could whilst there, but I am still unsure about the level of knowledge held by the Police there.

On Sunday night about 2100 I was walking back to my Riad with my husband, this is in the North area of Marrakech, away from the tourist areas. There was a street-market of sorts on the alley which we were walking down, I saw a blonde european girl, who as we got closer, turned to face something on a stall, I heard her say about 3 years old, but with a Moroccan lady, quite tall for a Moroccan female, wearing a pale blue full length robe, with her head covered, she was in her early 30's maybe. We walked past and I discreetly tried to look more closely, not wanting to draw attention to the fact that we were looking at her especially, but as we did the girl turned to a stall and pointed at something on it - facing away from us - but she did say, "Mamma", and then something I couldn't catch, the woman was walking slightly ahead of the girl and we couldn't hear what was said, but it was along the lines of. "Yes, come on, let's go", but not in any hurried way. They then disappeared down an alley. As it was in a dark street it was not possible to get a good look at the face of the girl, she was wearing a peach or pink coloured dress - western style - with her hair in a ponytail. It may be of no consequence, she could have been a child of a European couple who was with a Nanny or Au Par ? I don;t think that her features were broad enough to have been Madeleine, but it was all very fleeting and dark, so I can't be entirely sure. We went back to our Riad and......

Sirs,
My name is Carla and I live in Brasilia. Today at 11 AM on the W3 south bound, block 505-506, a foreign looking woman drew my attention, she had red hair and strange clothes, who was walking with a blonde girl aged between 4 and 5. I saw them twice at traffic lights. Until that moment I just admired the girl’s beauty, but when I arrived at the place where I drink my morning coffee I saw a photo of the missing girl, Medde (sic), in the newspaper. I walked around the blocks where I had seen them several times, but did not see them again. I asked in several hotels whether there were two guests with these descriptions, but I did not get a positive answer from any of them. The girl I saw was very similar to the photo, perhaps a little blonder. It could be a coincidence but I didn’t know nothing about this case yet, in spite of the wide coverage. I would like you or the police to check this information.

Carla

Main Subject : Kidnapping and Hostage Taking

Dear Colleagues,

The following is a synopsis, as prepared by the CID from the
Malta Police, concerning an alleged sighting of missing person Madeleine McCann :

On the 17th June 2007 at around 2200hrs, two British tourists reported to the Police that earlier on during the day (noon) they had seen a young girl who they strongly believed was Madeleine McCann - abducted in Portugal in May of this year.

Upon receipt of this information, the two female tourists ( twin sisters) were further interviewed by detectives from the CID and they both explained that on the 17th June 2007 at around 0830hrs, they had gone to the market-place in Valletta. At around midday, they went to the Bus Terminus to board the Bus back to Bugibba. While at the Terminus, waiting for Bus
number
49, they noticed a little girl accompanied by a woman who was right in front of them in the queue. Within minutes, they boarded the Bus and were talking to the girl all the way to St Paul's Bay. The woman who was accompanying the girl was sitting right in front of these two persons on the Bus. The girl was very easy going with these two women and started chatting with them.

It was at this point that one of these informers noticed that the girl highly resembled Madeleine McCann who was reported missing in Portugal on the 3rd of May 2007. In fact, they both remarked that they had been seeing photographs of the absentee for the past weeks and that the girl in front of them had a lot of similarities to the girl shown on these photographs. They also included a paticular sopt in the girl's right eye.

On the Bus, the woman accompanying the girl stopped the latter from talking to these women for a
number of times and did not look back at them as if she was trying to hide her face. However, they also managed to get a clear mental picture of this woman. At one moment in time, the girl was observed to become nervous and was saying to this lady, "You're not my mum and not my nanny". Both the girl and the woman then disembarked the Bus next to the Bugibba Quay at St Paul's Bay. Upon going down from the Bus, this lady was observed by looking at the two twin women in a suspicious manner. At that moment, they thought that she was trying to see whether they were still following her.

The twin sisters managed to compile an E-Fit of the woman accompanying the young girl. These two E-Fits (compiled separately) are being herewith attached.

(
Note : Here the Attachment is included)

The reporting women remarked that this woman had a Yorkshire accent.

Upon being further interviewed the twin sisters averred that they had ample time to have a very good look at the young girl since they spent almost one hour on the Bus.

Description of the girl :

The girl was observed to be wearing very low little shoes, blue short jeans, a top and something else over it which seemed to be very light. She had a thin sovereign ring in her hand and stud earrings with white stones. Her feet were full of bruises. The girl had a Scottish accent.

Description of the lady accompanying the girl :

The woman who was accompanying the girl was described to have relatively short yellowish hair, dark brown eyes, fake eye-lashes, around 54 years of age, chubby and around 5'6" - 5'7" tall. The woman had a Yorkshire accent.


Further investigations are actively ongoing as we speak.
