Christian B: Freed Madeleine McCann suspect pleads 'give me back my life' as he tries to confront prosecutor

Christian Brueckner denied involvement in Madeleine McCann’s disappearance and sought to hold prosecutor Wolters responsible for media treatment after his recent prison release.

  • Christian Brueckner attempted to reach prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters in Braunschweig earlier this month, travelling several hours by train, but Wolters refused to meet him after being tipped off.
  • Brueckner attempted to confront Wolters in Braunschweig after Wolters said he has evidence linking him to Madeleine's disappearance, but Brueckner told Sky News, `I'm being hounded by the media, and it's his fault.`
  • Living in sparse council accommodation since his release, Brueckner surrendered his passport, must register his address with probation, and wear an electronic ankle tag for five years.
  • Journalists quickly tracked down and published his new address, sparking local outrage as residents of Neumunster shouted abuse while local police led him from the flat, prompting relocation to a hotel.
  • Identified as the prime suspect in June 2020, Brueckner remains under investigation but uncharged, while Met police chief Sir Mark Rowley says the UK inquiry is still a missing-person investigation and Brueckner is due in Oldenburg court next month on a separate charge.
