McCanns 'delighted' over support |

Kate and
Gerry McCann are 'delighted' at huge support for a petition
launched earlier this week |
Kate and Gerry McCann are "delighted" at huge support for a petition
launched earlier this week, their spokesman has said.
The couple launched the petition to lobby the UK and Portuguese
governments for a joint or independent review of the case on Wednesday -
exactly three-and-a-half years since their daughter
Madeleine
disappeared.
On Sunday more than 24,000 people had already signed the petition, with
the number rising by the minute.
And the couple said the support showed finding Madeleine was still a
cause close to British people's hearts.
Their spokesman
Clarence Mitchell
said: "It's fair to say they are
delighted, it shows the public support that they know is out there but
this is tangible evidence that the support is there.
"Once it gets to an even greater number they will be in a position to
think about presenting it. Hopefully both the Portuguese and British
governments will take notice and there will be a review."
Madeleine was three when she went missing from her family's holiday
flat
in
Praia da Luz in the Algarve on May 3, 2007, as her parents dined with
friends nearby.
Portuguese police launched a huge investigation with the support of
British officers, but the inquiry was formally shelved in July 2008 with
no firm conclusions.
Private detectives employed by the McCanns are still investigating the
case.
And on Wednesday the couple appealed for more donations to the official
Find
Madeleine fund,
which is danger of running out in spring 2011 if
they do not get more financial backing.
