Madeleine McCann suspect calls for witch hunt' against him to stop

"The prosecutor refused to meet me, but I told his representative I wanted his help to get my life back, Brueckner said. German national Christian Brueckner made the trip to speak to prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters (Sky News) I'm being hounded by the media, and it's his fault. I want him to take responsibility. I was told there was nothing they could do to help. I had been convicted and released, and I wasn't their responsibility."

"Mr Wolters had stated publicly that he had evidence to show that Brueckner had killed Madeleine after she went missing in Portugal in 2007. Brueckner is angry that he is the only suspect in the Madeleine McCann case, yet he had never been arrested, questioned or charged. However, when the broadcasters asked if he killed Madeleine, he said: My defence lawyers have told me to say nothing on the topic and unfortunately I have to abide by that."

"The main suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann has called for the prosecutor, who has accused him of the three-year-old's murder in 2007, to stop this witch hunt against him. German national Christian Brueckner made the trip to speak to prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters, days after being released from prison where he served a seven-year rape sentence. As part of his release, Brueckner has had to surrender his passport and be fitted with an ankle tag."

Christian Brueckner travelled to see prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters days after his release from a seven-year rape sentence, surrendering his passport and wearing an ankle tag. Brueckner told a broadcaster he wanted the prosecutor to help him regain his life and blamed the prosecutor for media attention, saying the prosecutor refused to meet him. Wolters has publicly said he has evidence linking Brueckner to Madeleine's disappearance in Portugal in 2007. Brueckner says he remains the only suspect despite never being arrested or charged, and he has been advised by lawyers to say nothing. The Metropolitan Police and other authorities continue investigations.
