A German court has decided not to hear a sex offences case against the prime suspect in the disappearance of British toddler Madeleine McCann on the grounds that the region where it is located is not the last place he lived in Germany.
Christian Brückner was charged last year by German prosecutors in Brunswick with three offences of aggravated rape of women and two offences of sexual abuse of children. The offences took place in Portugal between December 2000 and July 2017. They are not linked to Madeleine’s disappearance.
