When did it become known? Who took it? Which police force did they contact?
Bit of a disingenuous post there I think, you did post on a thread here about missing children where this was discussed as well as the McCluskey sighting.
Maybe you forgot.
Ike; Andress; Morais; Reis; Havern; Pamalam RIP et al left no stone unturned in their efforts to rubbish this particular photograph after someone apparently came across it in the public domain and sent a copy to Pamalam in the mistaken belief hers was the official Find Madeleine site.
The photograph was apparently emailed from Brazil but the photograph appeared on Saturday, 30 June 2007 in a BBC News item reporting a bomb scare at Ibetha airport.
Topic: Claimed sightings of Madeleine McCann I have always been slightly bemused by the apparent horror generated by possible sightings of Madeleine McCann.
For example ...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6256944.stm the photograph which purported to show Madeleine in Brazil but was actually a photograph taken after a bomb scare in Ibiza ... gave the sceptic fora some light amusement for a time.
Why concentrate on the fact it was a hoax perpetrated probably for financial gain ... and ignore the question of who the healthy fair-haired girl aged three or four in pink trousers, a green top and a blue hat pictured at a Spanish airport is? and why the near apoplexy engendered when children who may have been Madeleine were reported to the authorities?
