Child protection team talk to McCanns at home
MISSING Madeleine McCann's parents met social workers yesterday to discuss their case.
Gerry and Kate McCann, who have two-year-old twins Sean and Amelie as well as four-year-old Madeleine, called for the meeting at home as a result of being named as suspects in her disappearance.
It is standard procedure for parents suspected of an offence overseas to have their case considered on child protection grounds.
It is understood Gerry, originally from Glasgow, and Kate were keen to meet officials from Leicestershire County Council and were given the choice of doing so at home or at the council HQ.
The meeting took place at their house in Rothley, Leicestershire, which has been under siege by the media since the family flew back from Portugal at the weekend.
Gerry's brother John McCann, who was staying with them, said: "They will co-operate with anyone who has the family's best interests at heart."
He added: "Kate has invited social services to make sure everything was OK. That was at her behest."
The decision by social workers to interview suspects depends on the degree and nature of the evidence made available.
