FORENSIC EVIDENCE
Analysed by Detective Chief Inspector Peter Kirkham, former Scotland Yard murder squad investigator
Clue: Blood on window sill of apartment at Ocean World resort which matches Madeleine's DNA profile
Dci Kirkham says: "She could have reached this herself which means it is not necessarily suspicious. She could have cut herself or bumped into it so it is of interest but not significant on its own."
Clue: Blood on floor of apartment at Ocean World resort which dried fresh and matched Madeleine's DNA profile
Dci Kirkham says: "Children can fall over and bump themselves and it's unlikely that they do themselves a lot of harm. The significance of this depends on how much and the spray or pattern it forms."
Clue: Police teams still searching for Madeleine in surrounding and wider area of Portugal
Dci Kirkham says: "To find a body in any murder is absolutely crucial even after several months. It moves an investigation forward a million miles with new leads. There are soil samples to examine, other forensic traces to detect and items to examine. Without a body, you are at step one, with a body you are at step nine."
Clue: Blood, hairs and other bodily fluids in interior and boot lining of Renault Scenic
Dci Kirkham says: "This is much harder to explain away innocently. If there is more than a few spots that suggests something sinister. If there is bodily fluid from a decomposing corpse it is almost impossible to come up with an innocent explanation."
Clue: Search of the nearby villa which Kate and Gerry McCann rented after they left Ocean World Resort
Dci Kirkham says: "If the police believe a corpse has been moved they will ask, 'Where was it wrapped?' If there are traces in the car there would have been traces on clothes. If there were traces on clothes they could have been transferred to the villa."
Clue: Cuddle Cat, which Kate says she left with Madeleine but she says was found on a shelf afterwards
Dci Kirkham says: "This was given as evidence that Madeleine did not wander off. But Portuguese police will not take it at face value now Kate is a suspect."
