Overview

• Lead prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters says evidence indicates Christian Brueckner’s responsibility but is not strong enough to make a conviction likely or justify charges.
• Investigators continue to regard Brueckner as their only suspect in Madeleine McCann’s disappearance.
• Prosecutors have asked a court to impose post-release measures, including an ankle tag, with conditions to be set in a closed hearing.
• An expert recently assessed Brueckner as dangerous to society, according to the prosecution.
• He has never been charged in the McCann case and denies involvement, and a June three-day search near Lagos produced no publicly disclosed breakthrough.
