| Kate and Gerry McCann, both 39, are official suspects in the case along with British ex-pat Robert Murat, 33. | |
| Madeleine, four, from Rothley, Leicestershire, was last seen in Praia da Luz on 3 May last year. | |
| The McCanns dined with their friends at a tapas restaurant as they left Madeleine and their two other children asleep in their nearby apartment. | |
