Madeleine McCann, Toscano, Malta And Going Equipped
THE Express likes Antonio Toscano, the man who claims to know who kidnapped Madeleine McCann.
The paper hears Toscano say once again that he knows of “the Frenchman” who stole Madeleine. She was abducted to order by a gang of “wealthy paedophiles”.
But Madeleine has been seen in Malta, or at least a blonde girl has; the Express talks of three fresh sightings. Is it Madeleine? And if it is, do the criminals who seem to have taken her read the UK papers, or want to be caught?
But what should we do if we do see the missing child?
Gerry McCann tells us: “The clear advice is to call the local police as soon as possible, or someone working in an official capacity such as hotel staff or tour representative.”
He goes on: “Please note that the emergency police numbers are variable in each country and for those going on holiday it might be a good idea to enter the number in your mobile phone.”
Mr McCann, who the Express likes to remind its readers is a “cardiac consultant”, needs the world’s help.
We cannot help but feel for him. We want to read about his daughter being spotted and found alive and well. But people go on holiday to escape stress and grief. Only ghouls would go equipped with a Madeleine spotting kit.
Or someone after the massive reward.
Let Me Help
Which brings us back to Toscano. “I’m certain that Madeleine is still in Europe,” says he, “perhaps even still in Portugal, that’s she is alive and is being held by this man.” The Frenchman.
He goes on: “I intend to contact the McCanns and offer my help to the family and get this girl back”.
But Gerry McCann has already advised anyone with information to go to the police.
If Toscano was wanted wouldn’t the fraught and desperate McCanns seek him out? He’s not too hard to find.
What can be gained from him contacting them, aside from fame and the authority to help shift copies of any subsequent book…
