Rape survivor Hazel Behan brings case to Europe over Portugal' s alleged failure to fully investigate Christian Bruckner over 2004 attack
Briefly

Hazel Behan, a rape survivor and activist, has filed a case with the European Court of Human Rights against Portugal. She alleges that the authorities failed to properly investigate her 2004 sexual assault by Christian Bruckner, who later became the prime suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Behan's legal action aims to address the alleged shortcomings in the Portuguese investigation, which she argues contributed to Bruckner's eventual acquittal in a significant criminal context.
Rape survivor and activist Hazel Behan is determined to hold authorities accountable, alleging that Portugal's investigation of Christian Bruckner's 2004 case was inadequate and contributed to his acquittal.
Behan emphasizes that the failings in the investigation not only affected her own case but potentially allowed one of modern history's most notorious suspects to evade justice for longer.
