  • Police released a video on Tuesday of how Madeleine McCann might look now, in a bid to prick the conscience of anyone who knows what became of the missing girl. Madeleine, from Leicestershire, vanished from the Portuguese resort of Praia da Luz on May 3, 2007, just days before her fourth birthday.

    The 60-second video, released in seven languages including French and Arabic, features footage of Madeleine and digitally enhanced photos of what she might look like now — with shoulder length blonde hair as well as one with her with a tan and dark hair. The clip was produced with the aid of psychologists.

    “We’re not actually looking directly at the principal criminal, said Jim Gamble, head of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre. This message is aimed at prompting the conscience of an individual who is keeping a secret. We believe that there is someone out there who is associated and knows,” he said.

    Parents Gerry and Kate McCann, whom Portuguese police named as suspects but later cleared, waged a high-profile campaign to find their daughter, hiring a private detective and even meeting with Pope Benedict.
