After last night’s BBC1 Crimewatch programme on which DCI Andy Redwood appealed for information into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, officers say that they are extremely pleased with the response from the public.
Officers responded to calls and emails which were generated as a result of the appeal. Calls and emails came into the Crimewatch studio, the Incident Room at Belgravia and the call centre at Hendon.
DCI Andy Redwood, said: “We are extremely pleased with the response to the Crimewatch appeal. The incident room is following up a number of enquiries, having received over 300 calls and over 170 emails with specific lines of enquiry. We will now take the time to follow up these lines of enquiry. Our appeal continues and later today I will be travelling to Holland, and tomorrow Germany, to continue the appeal for information.
“Madeleine remains at the heart of everything we do and I will continue to update the McCann family as more information is received by the incident room.”
