It comes as experts revealed they believe Maddie’s body could have been hidden in one of 600 wells in Portugal’s Praia da Luz
EX-PORTUGUESE national police chief Goncalo Amaral has claimed MI5 helped cover-up Madeleine McCann’s body after her parents accidentally killed her.
The controversial detective made the shocking claims on Aussie TV show Sunday Night, which looked into the unsolved disappearance and suggested Madeleine’s body could be hidden in a well on Praia da Luz.
Amaral suggested MI5 “for sure had an involvement”, either by helping to hide Maddie’s body or covering up the alleged crime.
It comes as Kate and Gerry McCann told of their heartache ahead of the 10th anniversary since she vanished.
When informed of Amaral’s latest conspiracy theory by a journalist who suggested he also thinks Gordon Brown was involved, Gerry McCann said: “The less said about Goncalo Amaral the better.”
Despite Amaral’s bold claims, the programme suggested Scotland Yard’s strongest lead was an employee working within the Ocean Village holiday complex who could have more information they have not yet given to police.
