I worry Madeleine McCann was hidden inside prime kidnap suspect Christian B’s creepy van as I was being shown around it
THE dad of Christian B's ex-lover fears Madeleine McCann was hidden inside his creepy van when he was shown around it.
Dieter Fehlinger, 67, was given a tour of the creepy VW camper in Portugal in 2007 while visiting his daughter Nicole.
Paedophile Christian B lived in the vehicle around the time three-year-old Madeleine disappeared in Praia da Luz in 2007.
He had been dating Nicole, 45, since 2006 after the pair met at a Christmas party.
When her father came to visit, Christian B relished in showing off his camper van - before allegedly making some disturbing comments.
Former ambulance driver Dieter claimed the German boasted he could hide drugs or "even a small child" inside an adapted hiding place.

The unsuspecting dad brushed off his concerns - but is haunted by the fact Maddie could have been concealed inside.
He told Australian TV: "I have been thinking about it the whole time."
Dieter previously told The Sun he had confronted his daughter Nicole after fearing she may have helped the prime suspect snatch Maddie.
She has been questioned by the German equivalent of the FBI because of their relationship. Nicole is not a suspect.

Another of Christain B's former girlfriends earlier revealed how she slept in the camper van, which he described as his "house".
Nuray Oezgen claimed their relationship crumbled when she realised he had an unhealthy obsession with schoolgirls.
Investigators claimed to have found evidence in the camper van earlier this month.
Hans-Christian Wolters, heading the case against the German paedo and rapist, said: “We have found new facts and new evidence.
"It’s not forensic evidence but evidence and because of our evidence, we are sure he is the murderer of Madeleine McCann.
"We are sure he killed Madeleine."
It sparked speculation that it could be fibres from the missing tot’s pyjamas.
The three-year-old was wearing patterned pink Winnie the Pooh Eeyore pyjamas when taken in Praia da Luz, Portugal.
No trace of them has ever been unearthed.
Christian B, 45, has always denied any involvement in Madeleine’s abduction.
But a TV investigation revealed he had a face-changing op four months after she vanished.

The paedo’s jaw was reset and four distinctive “rabbit” teeth straightened in a secret visit to a private dental clinic in Germany.
He flew from Portugal, where he was living close to the scene of Madeleine’s May 2007 disappearance, to his homeland for the op that September with the global hunt for the three-year-old at its peak.
