Bring Maddy Home Campaign Reaches Greece

Brits in Crete Web Portal, approached by the official organization for the "Bring Maddy Home" has added a dedicated page in the Greek language (ελληνικά�) to its website.

The page is intended to heighten awareness among the Greek people interracting with visiting and resident Brits on the island of Crete and across Greece to be aware that the youngster, kidnapped in the Algarve, Portugal may have been brought to Greece. The idea is to target shopkeepers, supermarket and other retail outlets to display the poster of little Madeleine McCann and report anything suspicious or unusual that could be related.

The web page in Greek simply says to keep a look out for anything suspicious that could be linked to this case and has links to its website in English and Greek.

The page starts:

Αγαπητέ φίλε,

Χρειαζόμαστε την βοήθειά σου και την υποστήριξή σου στην προσπάθειά μας να ευαισθητοποιήσουμε τον κόσμο για να βρεθεί το μικρό κορίτσι που απήχθη κατά την διάρκεια των διακοπών που έκανε με τους γονείς της στην Πορτογαλία. Ταυτόχρονα, στέλνουμε το μήνυμα............(για να διαβάσει την πλήρη σελίδα.)�

As I write this there are reports of hate mail against the parents of Maddy McCann originating in the United States saying they were negligent in allowing the abduction of their daughter.

Hope it will not be too long before there is closure to this distressing saga.
