Pervert says he never saw Madeleine McCann

Raymond Hewlett, the pervert who Madeleine McCann investigators want to question, says he didn't kill her and he never saw her in real life - only on TV and on posters.

The 64-year-old was said to have been living in the Algarve in Portugal when Madeleine McCann, 3, went missing from her holiday apartment in 2007. Hewlett has been living in Germany undergoing treatment for throat cancer, and detectives have been keen to speak to him there.

Hewlett is reported to have said, “It’s obvious why they’re interested in me. But they can all think what they like. I didn’t kill the McCann girl. It’s the truth and it’s never going to change." He also said the only time he had ever seen Madeleine was on television and in posters. Hewlett said there was someone who could verify his alibi but that he didn't want to bring them into it.

However, his wife has insisted that the person cannot verify his alibi. German-born Mariana, 33, confessed that a female friend who Hewlett insisted could vouch for him on the day Madeleine vanished cannot remember where he was.

People who say they knew Hewlett while he lived in Portugal have reported details that continue to interest detectives, but Hewlett has refuted various claims made about him.

8 July 2009.

Hewlett was jailed several times in the UK for sexually assaulting young girls, including an attack in 1978, in which he put a gun to his victim’s back.

Hardly interesting - there is just no evidence that the girl was abducted in the first place. We have just the words of the parents that she was abducted and no evidence. We need to look closer to home to find out what happened.
