Mccann search extension request

Police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine Mccann are to ask for more funds to extend their search, it has been reported.

More than £11 million has been spent on the probe to find the missing girl, who vanished from the family’s holiday apartment in Praia da Luz in Portugal in May 2007, aged three. With funding for the investigation in place until the end of September, the Metropolitan Police are reportedly set to request more money from the government “to pursue a final line of inquiry”.
