No more forensic work on Madeleine McCann case say British police

Operation Grange was costing more and more of taxpayers money while other areas face budget cuts
British police hunting for missing Madeleine McCann have made the decision to stop all forensic work.
The Sunday Mirror can reveal the final scientific tests on the case were completed three months ago as part of Scotland Yard’s £12million inquiry.
Operation Grange was launched by ex-PM David Cameron five years ago to find the doctors’ daughter, who vanished, aged three, during a holiday to Portugal in 2007.
But it is expected to be shelved in the autumn amid concerns about its spiralling cost while other areas of policing face budget cuts.
A source said: “The final forensics were carried out about three months ago but, sadly, they didn’t take us forward. There are no plans for any further forensic work to take place.”
It had been hoped tests could be carried out on hairs recovered from the holiday flat from which Madeleine vanished.
It is a further blow for parents Kate and Gerry, who lost a £434,000 libel payout in April from a Portuguese officer who wrote a book questioning the pair’s account.
The couple, from Rothley, Leics, said: “Until we have answers, until there is news, there will always be hope and we will do everything we can to help find Madeleine.”
The inquiry has taken 1,338 statements and investigated 60 “persons of interest” but police privately concede they are no closer to finding Madeleine.

Doh, now tell us something we didn't know. How long can you carry out forensic work on the same pieces of evidence.... of course that work is finished!!

No more forensic work on Madeleine McCann case
Was the hairs the last line of enquiry then I wonder? Where they looking for a hair from an abductor, and didn't find any? You'd think they would have known better imo

Not sure - originally it was reported to be the bedroom curtain but I reckon that was an error. This report would have seemed more real if they had named the officer giving the info.

High lighted in red,strange isn't it just over four months ago Hogan Howe was telling us they were on one last line of enquiry,was that it completed within the month?

Shouldn't it be highlighted in pink?
Has Clarence's fingerprints all over it.

Sign of desperation perhaps, as it's a risky game attempting to speak for Grange, as their team will know exactly where it's come from if it's not accurate.
Wonder why the McCann team would take such a risk?
Desperate times, desperate measures spring to my mind.
It does indeed seem like the McCann's are out of the loop at the moment with Grange.

Re: No more forensic work on Madeleine McCann case say British Police
I was reading these 'source-planted' stories whilst I was away. Ridiculous nonsense as usual.
Snipped from the mail:
The announcement to axe all forensic work from the inquiry comes after the final scientific tests carried out three months ago 'didn't take the police forward'.
What announcement?
What did I miss and when did SY announce that?
SY not giving a running commentary but the source giving a desperate commentary on everything.

I haven't seen anything from Grange at all either.... Nicola Wall has kept totally silent, not a peep from her.

Exactly.
Just a load of drivel that comes out of the 'sources' rear.
But what gets me is why is it allowed...
