Operation Grange funding to run out in search for Madeleine McCann
12th September 2018
It is understood that Operation Grange funding will run out in at the end of this month. Operation Grange is the title of the Metropolitan police endeavour to find missing Madeleine McCann.
Three year old Madeleine McCann went missing in 2007 whilst on a family holiday in Portugal.
Scotland Yard launched its own investigation, Operation Grange, in 2013 after a Portuguese inquiry failed to make any headway.
UK detectives were granted an extra £150,000 in March 2018 to continue their probe.
The Home Office have said any request for further funding by the Metropolitan Police will be “carefully considered”.
Operation Grange has cost £11.6 million so far.
