Madeleine or "Maddy", as she is known in Britain, vanished from her family's
apartment in the Algarve holiday resort of Praia da Luz in 2007.

The parents of missing British girl Madeleine McCann are marking the 18th
birthday of their daughter on Wednesday, just over 14 years since she
disappeared on holiday in Portugal.

The disappearance, just days before her fourth birthday, sparked a massive
search effort -- though no trace of her has ever been found -- and an
international media frenzy.

A source close to the family told AFP the McCanns were very private people
and would only comment if there was a fundamental development in
Madeleine's case.

German investigators have identified a convicted sex offender, named in the
press as "Christian B.", as a prime suspect in the case.

London's Metropolitan Police continue to treat Madeleine's disappearance as a
missing person inquiry and said investigations were ongoing.
