    A year ago Christian Brueckner, 44, was called as the guy cops think nabbed and eliminated the British woman however he has actually still not been questioned over the disappearance.

    Facing criticism over the length of time his probe is taking, Hans Christian Wolters stated his group is ‘pleased’ with the development up until now which they had actually gotten ‘very interesting tips’, the Mirror reported.

    He stated: ‘We hope we can resolve the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, although this will take numerous months.

    ‘We are pleased with the response to our appeal for witnesses. But ­unfortunately not all our questions have been answered.’

    Brueckner, who has actually rejected being associated with the case, will not be questioned up until completion of the examination, Mr Wolters stated.

    Police have actually formerly stated Brueckner was residing in a camper van and his phone ‘pinged’ near to the resort where Maddie and her moms and dads were remaining on the night she disappeared.
