The parents of missing Madeleine McCann have released images of a man they believe abducted their daughter in May from a Portuguese resort.
The artist’s sketches show a man with dark, greasy collar-length hair and wearing a purple or maroon top with beige trousers, carrying a child.The images were drawn by an FBI-trained forensic artist using details from a friend of the McCanns.
The friend saw the man but did not link him to the disappearance at the time.
Madeleine, from Rothley, Leicestershire, vanished from the family’s holiday apartment in Praia da Luz days before her fourth birthday.
Her parents Gerry and Kate were named as official suspects in September.
Jane Tanner was among a group of friends who dined with them on 3 May when they left Madeleine and their two other children asleep in an apartment nearby.
Blank face
Ms Tanner described the man she saw as aged about 35 to 40, 5ft 6in (1.7m) tall, and of slim build.
And the child he was carrying was described as wearing the same pyjamas as Madeleine.
However, his face has been left blank as Ms Tanner was not certain about some details.
The images were commissioned by private detectives working for the McCanns, their spokesman Clarence Mitchell said.
“This is another important phase of our investigation into Madeleine’s abduction and we hope that this picture will be a very important reminder to anyone who was in the area on that night who may have seen this man.”
It’s sad to say, but i dont think this image is going to help the investigation at all, its far too vague.
Still, it doesnt hurt to explore every avenue available.
I really feel for the parents, I hope they find her.
Poor wee soul…its amazing what police identikits and drawings CAN do…
doesnt bear thinking about as a mummy and granny. x
Vague? The person in the picture has no facial features – surely that narrows it down?!
hence the word “vague” thicko
That picture reminds me of a scary episode of sapphire and steel from when I was little… the man with no face. It gave me nightmares.
How is it in this modern day and age nobody can find this child, or anybody that may have her or have killed her? Same as that boy in Liverpool who was shot…. it really is scary to think people can and do get away with murder so easily.
who said she was murdered?, shes not been found, theres still hope that shes alive

I didnt. I said why cant they find her, or somebody that has her, or killed her.
My murder reference was more related to the lad Rhys Jones killed in the middle of the day.
Makes you wonder why it has taken so long for this information to come out, maddie went missing in May if i remember correctly?…to me it seems a desperate attempt to take the focus off the parents, so they invent this.
Of course i could be totally wrong and i havent followed the story closely cos frankly so bored of hearing about it, but you would think this would of come out before if the was any actual event like this had of taken place, and its the first ive heard about it.
Send them all to the gallows i say!
