Christian Bruckner, the main suspect in the Maddie case
A former policy involved in an investigation to Christian Brueckner will be accidentally paid the fines, anticipating the release of the main suspect in the disappearance of Maddie.
Christian Brueckner, the main suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, may Freed up on September 17after the payment of a pending judicial fine of about 1500 euros.
Payment official was surprisingly a former German Federal Criminal Police agent (BKA), the same force that was involved in the investigation to the convicted violator, advances the British tabloid.
The identity of the woman It was not publicly revealedbut he herself confirmed to the German magazine The mirror which transferred the amount directly to the German judicial system. The former agent claims to have worked in the area of “Operative Audio Technology” and will have been involved in listening to Brueckner’s cell during a previous investigation. Nevertheless, he assured never having personal contact with the suspect.
Its intervention generated controversy, as this payment BRUECKNER MAKES PENALTY UNTIL JANUARY 2026as initially foreseen, and reduces the time available for authorities to gather crucial proofs that may allow a formal accusation in the case of Maddie McCann. Early release represents, according to experts, a serious risk of escape, especially if Brueckner is for a country without extradition agreement with Germany.
Initially, the former agent justified the payment of the fine as being injury against an agent of authority, who considered it unfair. However, he later admitted that he realized that the infractions were related to physical aggression, driving under the influence of alcohol and falsification of documents – but said it was late to nullify the transfer.
The settled fine refers to convictions of the HelmsTedt and Braunschweig courts, dated 2016 and 2017. Brueckner, currently serving a sentence for violation of an American tourist 72 years old, in 2005, will be released after compliance with this conviction.
Suspected since 2020 in the case of the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, which occurred in 2007 in Praia da Luz, Algarve, Brockner has never been formally accused. Your phone was tracked in the area at the time of disappearance, and your car was changed to another name the next day. Several elements, including indirect statements and digital material, connect it to the crime, but are still lacking on the conclusive forensic evidence.
