Madeleine McCann may have been in room full of children

POLICE are checking "significant" evidence Madeleine McCann was left in her parents' apartment with six other children on the night she vanished, it was claimed yesterday.

Detectives think friends holidaying with Kate and Gerry McCann in Portugal also left four of their young children in the couple's apartment.

They said the presence of so many youngsters would make it highly unlikely that four-year-old Madeleine was abducted.

Until now, it was thought Madeleine was left with just her brother and sister, two-year-old twins Sean and Amelie, while the adults in the party went out to eat in a nearby tapas bar.

Holidaymakers at the Ocean Club complex in Praia da Luz said three plain-clothes officers revisited the McCanns' holiday apartment at 7am yesterday and stayed for five hours.

The apparent activity comes days before the floundering investigation is to be taken over by another officer, Paulo Rebelo, who is said to favour a review of every aspect of the search.

The McCanns' spokesman Clarence Mitchell denounced the latest claims as part of a smear operation.

Portuguese detectives regularly told Portuguese journalists that they think the so-called Tapas Nine have lied about the events of that fateful night.

"It's utter rubbish," Mr Mitchell said.

"If you put seven children together, you're going to have a far harder time getting them to sleep than three."

Police sources told Portuguese newspaper 24 Horas they had "significant evidence" seven of the group's eight children, all under the age of five, were in the McCann apartment on May 3.

They gave no explanation as to the whereabouts of the eighth child.

A source close to the family said the group had regularly visited each other's flats during the six-day holiday before Madeleine vanished, but insisted the children all slept in their own apartments.

As the Portuguese investigators try to determine where the children were sleeping on the night Madeleine disappeared, they are not giving up on the kidnapping line.

Tourists who had stayed at the resort at the time of the incident have been asked to provide investigators with DNA samples and fingerprints.

The move is said to have come after detectives uncovered evidence of a possible kidnapper.

The head of the British investigation into the disappearance in Portugal wrote a letter to holidaymakers asking for their help.

The letter reportedly explained that Portuguese detectives had failed to identify a number of samples recovered from the resort.
