'GIRL IS NOT MADELEINE' !

A blonde girl photographed in Morocco is not missing Madeleine McCann, according to journalists who met her.
British and Spanish reporters claim to have traced the girl, pictured being carried on a Moroccan woman's back.
The London paper, the Evening Standard, says the girl is a five-year-old from the village of Zinat.
The McCanns' spokesman said the news, if true, was disappointing. Madeleine disappeared on 3 May from a holiday apartment in Portugal.
Experts were said to be examining the image, taken three weeks ago by a Spanish tourist, in the hope that the girl was the missing four-year-old from Rothley, Leicestershire.
But Spain's Telecinco channel and the Standard both claimed to have traced the family in the picture.
Rashid Razaq, the Standard reporter who flew to Morocco from London, said he saw the youngster.
"She has got a resemblance to Madeleine but when you see her properly, it is obvious it isn't her."
He said the girl in the picture was five-year-old Bushra Binhisa, daughter of an olive farmer.
Family spokesman Clarence Mitchell promised that the search for Madeleine would continue.
