British police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in Portugal in 2007 announced they were looking at fresh leads and have altered the timeline of events surrounding the abduction.

Police revealed their latest findings in the continued search for the then 3-year-old on BBC's Crimewatch.

Noting that new evidence suggests the abduction may have been pre-planned, detectives revealed they now believe that Madeleine was abducted up to 45 minutes later than originally thought.

A man seen carrying a pyjama-clad child near the McCann's apartment the night of the abduction in Praia da Luz, southern Portugal, is now considered a false lead.

Investigators have released two efit images of a possible suspect.
