What is known, for now, is that dozens of soldiers are participating in the investigations, conducted by the Portuguese police and carried out at the request of the German Federal Criminal Investigation Office (BKA) and with the presence of the British authorities.

They are carried out both on land, where several tents have been set up to support the operations, and in the water of the reservoir, with boats and divers. From afar, one could see how the authorities were collecting various items.

Local media say so they search for the remains of Madeleine’s body or any object belonging to the English girlwith cutting-edge technology and trained dogs to detect the dead possibly buried up to 7 meters deep.

Private detectives had already carried out a search of the Arade dam in 2008. They found a lot of bones, but they were from animals.

This Wednesday, the investigators are hoping to get some clues that will allow them to get closer to solving a case that shocked the whole world 16 years ago.

His parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, were having dinner with friends at “Tapas”, the resort’s restaurant, about 50 meters from the room. They had arrived there around 8:40pm and every 20 minutes they would take turns going to check on them and make sure everything was ok.

At around 10pm, after one of those visits, the little girl’s mother came back to the table crying and screaming. “They took her away,” she repeated over and over.

after years of researchthe investigation focuses on BruecknerGerman citizen who resided in the Algarve at the time of the disappearance and who has a long history of crimes for sexual abuse and paedophilia, some of them in Portugal.

Suspicions against him gained weight after he was extradited from Portugal to Germany in 2017, accused of a child sexual abuse case in Greece. At the moment he is in prison in Germany after several convictions for different crimes.

The investigation into his movements showed, from his cell phone trail, that he was near the resort complex where the McCanns were staying the night Madeleine was abducted.

Brueckner, who was never formally charged in this case despite being under investigation, spent long periods in the area with his RV and had pictures of the tank on his personal computer, local media reported.

THE German police found videos and photos who are believed to have been buried in the pedophile’s “secret den”, located in a dilapidated factory in the German town of Neuwegersleben, about 100 kilometers southeast of Hanover.

The discovery has led to this new research operation, the most important in the last nine years, which began in the Barragem do Arade reservoir.
