No DNA Match To Madeleine McCann
Updated: 10:34, Wednesday August 08, 2007
A DNA test on a drinks bottle used by a young girl in Belgium does not match that of missing Madeleine McCann.
Sighting claim in BelgiumA child therapist had said she was " 100% sure" she saw the missing four-year-old at a restaurant in the Flemish town of Tongeren, not far from the Dutch border, on July 28.
The witness said the girl was with a couple, a Dutch man and an English-speaking woman, who were acting strangely and not like " normal parents" .
Belgian Police say the DNA found on the bottle was that of a man not a girl.
Sky News correspondent Greg Milam, who is in Belgium, said that the inconclusive nature of the result means police are still desperate to trace the couple and the youngster and have not yet ruled out the possibility that it is Madeleine.
" There has been huge publicity here and yet they have still not come forward and their car, which had Begian number plates, hasn' t been traced," he said.
Sightings of four-year-old Madeleine have been reported all over Europe and further afield since she was snatched from her family' s holiday apartment in Portugal on May 3.
In a radio interview Madeleine' s mother, Kate McCann, said that although there was no positive news she was encouraged that people were still looking for her daughter.
" It says to us that people are still looking and that is really important and we would encourage that," she said.
" I probably have more hope now than I did at the beginning."
She added: " We haven' t had any news to the contrary that Madeleine isn' t alive, and that' s very important."
Portuguese newspapers have claimed detectives suspected the girl was not abducted, but died in her family' s holiday flat in the Algarve village of Praia da Luz.
Blood specks found in the apartment are now in the UK for testing to see if they came from Madeleine.
It is thought the police investigation is moving away from Robert Murat, 33, the only official suspect in the case.
On Saturday, it will be 100 days since Madeleine went missing.
