Just now: In a stunning new twist to one of the world’s most infamous missing person cases, Madeleine McCann’s grandmother has revealed what she calls the final strange evidence from the night her granddaughter vanished — a painting of two hands that she claims could point directly to the person responsible.
According to investigators, the painting, which had been hidden for years among the family’s stored belongings, was shown to police earlier today. The grandmother said she found it while sorting through old items connected to the disappearance. “I knew right away it wasn’t normal,” she reportedly told detectives.
The artwork, described as crude but deeply unsettling, depicts two outstretched hands — one significantly larger than the other. Experts believe it may have been created shortly before or after Madeleine’s disappearance, possibly by someone with knowledge of what happened that night.
Police have taken the painting into evidence and are now analyzing the materials and style in hopes of uncovering its origins. While officials have not disclosed further details, they confirmed the find has “potential investigative value.”
The McCann family has not yet commented publicly, but those close to them say the discovery has reignited both grief and determination to uncover the truth nearly two decades after Madeleine was last seen.
