Portuguese and German police renew search for Madeleine McCann

Teams expected to use radar equipment that can scan beneath ground as they look for evidence that could implicate prime suspect Christian Bruckner

A new search for Madeleine McCann is under way in Portugal with police officers gathering a few miles from where the British toddler was last seen in 2007.

Portuguese and German police are carrying out the search 18 years after the three-year-old disappeared from the resort of Praia da Luz while her parents were having dinner out, leaving her sleeping in a nearby room with her toddler twin siblings.
