The man emerged as a “significant” suspect following a vital breakthrough in the case from a witness who came forward after a 10th anniversary appeal by the Met for information in 2017.
He identified two houses in the Praia da Luz area where he said Maddie could have been taken after she was abducted.When asked whether the attack was sexually motivated, Mr Hoppe said: “We cannot rule that out. DCI Cranwell said: “Extensive enquiries have led investigators to believe the suspect was using this number and received a call, starting at 7.32pm and finishing at 8.02pm on 3 May 2007.The number which called him is +351 916 510 683 – but cops have not found who was using it.
Cops refused to disclose if any forensic evidence was found linking either to Madeleine’s disappearance. He said: “The Operation Grange team is revealing details of two vehicles which the suspect is known to have had access to and used around the time of Madeleine’s disappearance. “We are appealing for anyone who may have seen it in or around Praia da Luz on 3 May, the night Madeleine went missing, the days before, or weeks following the disappearance.
The Met's £12million Operation Grange probe into the disappearance has identified more than 600 potentially significant suspects. Scotland Yard says Madeleine McCann may still be alive and release an artist's impression of what she may look like as a nine-year-old.14 October 2013 While living in Portugal, the suspect lived in a dilapidated old farm building two miles from the holiday apartment,One neighbour said he rented the home from an English owner in the 90s and was "always a bit angry" before he vanished in 2006 "without a word".
Despite a 13-year search for the missing girl and countless conspiracy theories and potential suspects, no trace of Madeleine – who would now be 17 – has ever been found. The Met was given an extra £300,000 last year to explore a number of outstanding leads identified during its Operation Grange investigation.
During the investigation police said they had looked at more than 60 persons of interest and had made inquiries about the whereabouts of 650 sex offenders.
