Police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in Portugal have cordoned off an area of scrubland in Praia da Luz amid mounting speculation that they are about to start a digging operation. The area is about five minutes' walk from the Ocean Club complex, where the McCanns were staying when three-year-old Madeleine disappeared in May 2007. Officers are expected to use dogs and 'ground penetrating radar' to search the scrubland, looking for disturbed earth. Scotland Yard is carrying out its own investigation into what happened to Madeleine, but said that the force was 'not prepared to give a running commentary' about the case. The development comes two weeks after its Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley announced that officers are working through every credible line of inquiry in the search for the missing girl. Similar search requests have also been made for two other locations in Praia da Luz. Report by Sarah Kerr.

Madeleine McCann's parents says they're 'greatly encouraged' by the expanding British police investigation into the case of their missing daughter.
Kate and Gerry McCann released a statement Sunday indicating they believe new information made available to police and a detailed BBC 'Crimewatch' show may finally turn up vital information.
The statement says the couple hopes the show 'will bring further new evidence which will take us a step closer to finding Madeleine and to bringing those responsible for her abduction to justice.'

The 'Crimewatch' show to be aired Monday will include a detailed reconstruction of the crime.
