Madeleine McCann: Detectives hunt sex attacker

UK police probing the disappearance of Madeleine McCann are seeking an intruder who sexually abused five girls in Portugal between 2004 and 2006.

Detectives say the attacks happened in holiday villas occupied by British families in the Algarve.

The man, described as tanned with dark hair, is suspected of breaking into 12 properties from 2004 to 2010.

DCI Andy Redwood says that some of the families involved have only recently come forward and there may still be more.
