Description and Result of Inquiry

In response to an order from superiors and in response to a communication received by the PSP Lagos Squadron saying that in Odiaxere at about 17.00 a woman was seen pushing a car with a little girl who was apparently Madeleine McCann. By making various trips around the streets of the locality, the woman was found pushing the car in the main road with a small girl.

When asked to identify herself, she responded that she was M***** I***** C******, resident in Odiaxere and that the little girl was her niece, aged two, whom she was taking care of at that moment.

The undersigned approached the little girl, who told him that she was two years old in Portuguese and that her name was J***** and that her aunt was pushing the car.
The inquiry was terminated, stating that this was absolutely not Madeleine McCann.

Afterwards and taking into account document 93/05 JAPM relating to child abuse, Mr C***** C***** R***** an English man was investigated, who had fled from justice to an unknown destination and that his mother and stepfather own a bar called the Plow (sic) and Arrow on the main road of Luz, some 150 metres from the site of the events and it was thought important to establish whether this individual had been present in the region on the date of the events.

The Man’s stepfather said that his wife was in England and that her son C***** R**** R**** since the facts that had led to him being included in the document had not returned to Portugal and stated that he was working in Iraq as a photographer.

Signed.
