Madeleine McCann: Scotland Yard police pursue new leads

Scotland Yard says it has "new evidence and new witnesses" in the Madeleine McCann case and has opened a formal investigation into her disappearance.

The Met Police said it still believed there was a chance Madeleine was alive and it was investigating 38 "persons of interest" after reviewing the evidence.

Madeleine was almost four when she disappeared in Portugal in May 2007.
