McCanns attend libel trial to 'stop damage' from book
The mother of missing Madeleine McCann attended the start of the libel trial earlier this month against a former police chief in Portugal, to "stop the damage" she believes is being caused to the search for her daughter by his book.
Goncalo Amaral published a book making allegations about the disappearance of her daughter, three-year-old Madeleine, back in 2007.
Kate McCann said: "I'm here to stop the damage that has been caused and is still being caused, both directly and indirectly, to the search for our daughter."
