The News of the World


A PRIVATE detective linked to the agency hunting for Madeleine McCann was behind bars last night-after being arrested on suspicion of helping a gang steal Pounds 25million worth of cocaine.  Retired cop Antonio Jimenez, 53, was remanded by a Barcelona judge investigating a massive Spanish police corruption scandal. Jimenez is a business partner of Maria Fernandez Lado, 57, the founder of Metodo 3, the controversial agency charging Pounds 50,000 a month to search for the missing toddler.  The McCanns spokesman said Jiminez had not been involved in the hunt for Maddie.
