Letter to the National Forensics Institute (INML) from Goncalo Amaral<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

17th August 2007<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The present inquiry is in relation to the investigation of the disappearance of Madeleine McCann on 3rd May from P da L.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The English authorities in possession of elements collected from the family home in Leicestershire, which are being examined in an unidentified laboratory, traced the girl’s DNA profile, in annex to this document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it is necessary to the investigation we request the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Whether in the tests done by the INML Madeleine’s profile was established?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. In the case of a positive answer to point 1, that it should be determined whether the girl is the daughter of the parents identified ? Gerald Patrick McCann and Kate Healy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Information about whether the profile obtained by the INML corresponds to the profile traced in the English laboratory, on the request of the British authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. If there are differences between the English and Portuguese profiles that a report should be drawn up for this inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. In the follow-up of point 4, we request to be informed whether in the English profile the girl is the daughter of the McCann couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Other information that might be of use to the investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signed G. Amaral<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reply to Queries

– We inform you that none of the samples received by this institute were designated as supposedly belonging to the missing girl and we therefore, cannot reply to this query.


– Samples were studied – hair and a piece of cloth – nuclear DNA profiles only being obtained from 4 samples, which upon comparison with the DNA profiles of Kate and Gerry, could not belong to the girl.

– The samples were then studied using mitochondrial DNA analysis, the same was done for the other samples, giving the results in accordance with our report of 9th July No. 2007\/000226 LX-BC.

– As requested in point 5, it was determined that the profile obtained by the British lab could belong to a son\/daughter of the McCanns.

– The comparison of the profiles obtained in autossomic STR from Kate and Gerry McCann with the profile obtained was carried out.
