BRIT LAD: MADELEINE MCCANN WALKED PAST ME IN COSTA RESORT


Student Billy Sousa

By Jerry Lawton

A BRITISH holidaymaker has claimed he saw Madeleine McCann in the Spanish resort where police are searching for her.

Student Billy Sousa, 18, was having lunch with three pals in a bar overlooking a beach in Nerja on the Costa del Sol when a girl he believes could be the missing youngster walked past.


One of his friends shouted: “Oh God, she’s the spitting image of Madeleine McCann.”


The girl, who had dark blonde hair, pale skin and looked “seven or eight”, was with a 6ft, stocky, Middle Eastern man in his 40s with dark hair and stubble.


Billy said when the man saw they had spotted him he tugged on her hand and pulled her away.


But the pals did not report the sighting because the pair vanished before they could get a photo and they thought they would be laughed at.


This week Billy discovered police were searching the resort and passed his information to officers.


He said: “I just wish we’d done something about it there and then.


“There was just something so odd about this pale-skinned, English-looking girl walking along the beach front with a man who was of an entirely different race and appearance.


“The girl was looking around as though she was lost or didn’t know what was happening.


“I got a really good look at her face. She looked just like Madeleine. She was older obviously, but the features were identical.’’


Madeleine disappeared from her family’s holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, on May 3, 2007, days before her fourth birthday.


Billy, from Portsmouth, was having lunch outside the Olas bar on or around July 18.


He added: “I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She looked like all the pictures I’ve seen of her. The man she was with looked like he was fairly poor, not a drifter but not a rich man.


“One of my friends thought he saw a woman with them but I didn’t. I was too focused on the girl.”


Spanish police swooped on the resort this week after a tip-off from colleagues in Portugal.


Madeleine’s doctor parents Kate, 44, and Gerry, 43, are monitoring the investigation. Their spokesman Clarence Mitchell said the couple were grateful for any help in the search.

I doubt Billy really exists

I do too JD.Do they really think we are gobshoites..

Oh come on!!! not this cr*p again, Lord and Lady McCann from Rothley Towers will have to explain their actions at the Libel Trial (shooting self in feet they are!!) if these sightings ARE real then the Truth of the Lie is not having a detrimental effect on the search then is it?? in fact quite the opposite! I agree grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Someone tell him if Madeleine had lived abroad for 5 years she too would have sun tanned skin.

And what's with the English bit? How do people look English?

i dont mean this in a bad way but maddie sure gets around shes been spotted here in australia and everywhere the last 5 years!!!!

Sorry but Its all so predictable

The man she was with looked like he was fairly poor ...

But despite that, he takes on the additional responsibility of a small girl which would surely deplete the contents of his wallet.
Unless of course he's an eccentric millionaire ...

NEXT!

Is this something to try and counter the fact that the PJ have denied any information being passed across??

In any case its a P-take - Billy! Ha! More like Billy Lair!!

Even more so when you consider it is 5 years later and the public are 'still' reporting sightings, grabbing girls in India, when not knowing what Maddie actually looks like!

To say the book is hindering people searching (when the mcscams don't lift a finger themselves) is the biggest load of garbage I have ever heard...and very insulting

As JD16 said, I have doubts that this person even exists. Not even a photo of him - I'd have thought that someone craving their 15 minutes of fame would be glad to have their mugshot published.

At the bottom of the article, there is a button that says
MORE "NEWS" HERE

The quotes are not mine. I don't think that even the Star are taking this seriously.

So Billy states that his vision was of a child
with 'pale skin'?
So after 5 years supposedly living somewhere
within the mediterranian she would still have
pale skin?
Absolute nonsense.

Not necesserily the case Marxman! Madeleine may only go to the Med for her holidays - the rest of the time she might be in deepest Sweden!!??

Oh yes of course - she was photographed at a car show there wasn't she?!

Strange, these witnesses never have a camera

Oh silly me NoStone, me bad! You are right

So an 18 year old who would have been 13 in 07
has a fair idea what a 3 year old looks like now?
Cringe-worthy.

Billy's mum probably goes to India on her hols.

Or Goa, same as that Scarlett child neglector person that the PR Angel of Death was representing. They just keep right on coming, don't they.

Have you ever noticed when this kind of rubbish is printed that almost always on being spotted the man or woman who has the Madeleine lookalike quickly drags her away.
