MADELEINE McCann’s parents hope to win a £1million libel payout this
month from the ex-police chief who claimed they lied
about their daughter’s disappearance.
Any damages awarded to Kate and Gerry McCann will be spent on the
global search for the youngster.
A court hearing is due to start on September 13 in Lisbon. The
McCanns’ are still considering whether to appear to face
Goncalo Amaral, 55, who wrote in his book The Truth Of The Lie
that Madeleine was dead.
The McCanns’ lawyer Isabel Duarte said Kate and Gerry, both 44, of
Rothley, Leics, were confident of victory.
And their spokesman Clarence Mitchell said: “If they win the case
every penny they receive in damages will go into the
Madeleine Fund.” |
