Madeleine Expert Joins Uist Search

An expert who examined the hunt for Madeleine McCann was called to try to help solve the mystery of the merchant navy cadet who died on South Uist as Boxing Day. Police have also drafted in Mark Harrison, the national director of research for the National Police Improvement Agency, which led to the search for Madeleine, after the police have a blank. Its particular focus is the combination, or series of cases in which human remains were found in a large geographical area. As the search for Simon MacMillan, 21, goes on, a new team of police dogs from the mainland has been sent to the Hebridean island yesterday.
