"Charges against Madeleine McCann suspect Christian Brueckner are unlikely, his lawyer claimed yesterday.
Friedrich Fulscher said he has not been told what evidence German prosecutors have against his client but it was not up to him to ‘prove his innocence’.
Mr Fulscher said it was for detectives to prove he was guilty.
Brueckner, 43, has denied any involvement in the three-year-old’s disappearance.
‘As things stand now I do not actually believe there will be any charges,’ he said. ‘I do not anticipate a prosecution.
‘Thank God, in our legal system the prosecution has to prove the crime to an accused person and it is not the accused who must exonerate himself.
‘As long as my client does not know what he is accused of, and on what basis, there is no reason to think otherwise.’'
