Freed Madeleine McCann Suspect Tries to Confront German Prosecutor, Demands 'My Life Back'

He remains uncharged under strict release conditions pending further work by investigators across three countries.

Overview

  • Christian Brueckner traveled to the Braunschweig prosecutor’s office seeking a meeting with Hans Christian Wolters but was refused, telling Sky News he wants the public accusations to stop.
  • Wolters has said he believes he has evidence that Brueckner abducted and killed Madeleine McCann yet acknowledges it is insufficient to arrest or charge him.
  • Brueckner was released from Sehnde prison on 17 September and is subject to an electronic ankle tag, passport surrender and address registration with probation officers.
  • Journalists identified his Neumünster address after his release, prompting community anger and police relocating him from the town for his safety.
  • Brueckner denies involvement and declined to answer case questions on legal advice, as the Met Police say he remains a suspect and are taking stock of German and Portuguese inquiries; separate local reports claim he recently sought an untraceable phone, which shop staff say they refused and reported to police.
