Fresh police searches are due to start tomorrow near the spot where Madeleine McCann was last seen.
German police are said to have requested the searches, expected to take place between Praia da Luz where the three-year-old vanished on May 3 2007 and a house near the holiday resort where principal suspect Christian Brueckner used to live.
They will be the first in Portugal for more than two years following a near-week-long operation involving Portuguese, German and police officers at a remote dam a 40-minute-drive from Praia da Luz.
The searches in May 2023 at Arade Dam, described at the time as Brueckner's 'little paradise', came to nothing.
