It seems a little girl, Madeleine McCann, went missing on May 3rd and has still yet to be found. She was taken from her bed in an apartment while her parents were eating with friends nearby at a restaurant in Praia da Luz, Portugal. Recently, the girl's parents sued a Portuguese newspaper for publishing a story stating that the parents had killed their own daughter. It's quoted that the police have said there is nothing proclaiming the couple as suspects, so they're suing the paper for publishing a false report.
The couple have done a lot to find out where their daughter is, like campaigning internationally and getting the help and support of soccer star David Beckham.
I'm not a very positive person, so it's hard for me to believe she'll be coming back if she's already been missing for four months with no sign of return. Of course, you do hear those miracle stories of people turning up at the last minute, unharmed and for the most part fine. Hopefully this'll turn out like that in the end. The girl is only four years old! So I'm rooting for her safe return.
