Madeleine McCann suspect Christian Brueckner would sleep with partygoers after giving them cannabis joints at sex parties, it has been claimed.
A witness who recognised Brueckner from around the same time as Madeleine disappeared alleges that he exchanged drugs for sex.
Speaking to Portuguese TV station TVI anonymously, she said she recognised him and his distinctive yellow and white VW Camper van.
The parties, nicknamed “Pizza Parties” took place in woods near the hippy village of Barao de Sao Joao a 20-minute drive from his ramshackle farmhouse near Praia da Luz.
The woman said: “It was a sort of payment in kind. He gave the girls weed and other things they wanted and in exchange they gave him sex because they didn’t have money to pay for the drugs.
“That was the way they did things.”
The woman told how he always spoke English and hung around with a lookalike pal.
She added: “I thought the other man was a brother or a friend. Both were tall and both were blond-haired.
“One had blue eyes and the other had green eyes. I thought both of them were English until I found out now one of them was German.
“I always assumed they were English because I always heard them speaking in English.
“I immediately knew the new Madeleine McCann suspect was him when I saw the camper van on TV.
“It was the one he used. The last time I saw him was in 2007 shortly before Madeleine vanished.”
While in Portugal the suspect was imprisoned twice and had only been out from his second sentence five months before Madeleine’s disappearance.
He served two months in Evora Prison in 1999 for a petty offence and a nine-month prison term on the Algarve in 2006 for diesel theft.
He is known to have returned to Portugal following a spell away from the country after Madeleine went missing in May 2007.
He's been linked by local reports to an assault in 2016 and a sex abuse case in 2017 near the town of Silves a short drive inland from Albufeira, where his camper van was seized by police last year.
It's alleged that in 2017 the suspect "confessed" to abducting the girl while in a bar with a friend in Germany.
