May 3, 2026, will mark 19 years since a three-year-old British citizen, Madeleine McCann, vanished from a holiday apartment in Portugal.
The Metropolitan Police of Greater London launched Operation Grange in 2011, four years after her disappearance, to search for her, but failed to achieve a breakthrough.
The department will, however, continue its investigation through 2026–27, with the UK’s interior ministry, better known as the Home Office, approving its request for funding.
