The Spanish television channel broadcast details leaked from the Portuguese police reports on the case, which have now been picked up by the British media.
The parents of missing British youngster Madeleine McCann, are upset at reports from the Spanish television company Telecinco, which has leaked parts of the official police statements the couple made to police in Portugal.

The quote from Madeleine McCann, allegedly made the night before she disappeared, in which she asks her mother why she did not come when she was crying during the night, has been placed across the front page of all the tabloid newspapers in the U.K. today.

The McCann spokesperson, Clarence Mitchell, said that the leak, broadcast by Telecinco, was intended to attack the parents, while admitting that the leak was protected under Portuguese Law.
The McCanns have meanwhile been in the European Parliament to support the idea of a Europe-wide Amber Alert system for missing children, similar to that seen in the United States.

The Portuguese government seems to need to get a grip on their policemen! Why wouldn't they want to help find Madeleine and support her parents in their effort to help protect other children in the near future? Enough is enough.

What is wrong with the publication? "in which she asks her mother why she did not come when she was crying during the night" What does this have to do with finding Madeleine? Has these taken us nearer to finding Madeleine? Leak and publish all the rubbish you want if it will help move the issues to find Madeleine. Children grow up and learn, then, we will sue all of them to their last Euro. For now, all focus must be on finding Madeleine.
