A private investigator has insisted Julia Wendell "is not the guilty person", after she came forward with her belief that she could be missing person Madeleine McCann.
Julia, who also goes by the names of Julia Faustyna or Julia Wandelt, gained widespread attention after suggesting she could be Madeleine, who disappeared at the age of three while on holiday with her family in Portugal.
Dr Fia Johansson, who had been helping Julia, said she had no choice but to go public with her claims after getting "no response" from the police.
