Madeleine McCann suspect Christian B told ‘sex slave’ ex: ‘I know what happened to little Maddie from England’
PRIME Madeleine McCann suspect Christian B confessed to a former lover he knew “what happened to little Maddie from England”.
Anastasia Meckesy also described the child sex predator — now in jail for rape — as a “human pig” who treated her like his sex slave.
He forced her to dress as a schoolgirl at a swingers club and seemed to hate women, she added.
Anastasia, 34, told The Sun on Sunday: “He said that he ‘knows what happened to little Maddie from England’.
“He said she was ‘probably handed over’ to someone after being taken and, if she were still alive today, they would have found her by now’.
“We had spoken about the case because the local police wanted to question him. He was nervous and seemed stressed.

“He didn’t say much about it — just, ‘I lived in Portugal at that time in the Algarve and everyone is suspicious’.”
Madeleine was three when she vanished on a family holiday to Praia da Luz on May 3, 2007.
Christian B, 44, was declared an official suspect, or arguido, by Portuguese authorities on Friday ahead of the 15th anniversary.
The move is believed to be linked to the country’s 15-year statute of limitations.

The news was broken to Christian B in Oldenburg Prison in Germany, where he is serving seven years for the 2005 rape of a US pensioner in Portugal 18 months before the abduction.
Madeleine’s parents Gerry and Kate, of Rothley, Leics, welcomed his new status, saying in a statement: “This reflects progress in the investigation conducted by the Portuguese, German, and British authorities.”
They went on: “Even though the possibility may be slim, we have not given up hope that Madeleine is still alive and we will be reunited with her.”
Anastasia, 34, said Christian B admitted to her he was under suspicion in 2013.
She had met him at a kiosk-style café he ran in Braunschweig, 40 miles from Hanover.
She said: “Everyone in the scene went there to get something to smoke because he was well known for getting stuff like that. I met his mates there. It was all very sociable.
“Then Christian started something with me — kissing, touching, fumbling — and we ended up in bed. He made me his sex slave.”
She said he was also seeing a teenage girl at the same time.
Anastasia, then an arts student at university, added: “He was back and forth between the two of us. But I didn’t care.
“I wasn’t in love with Christian. I just wanted to have fun. And we really did have fun. I was young and wanted to try everything.
“At some point he dragged me to a swingers club. It was fun at first, but it soon stopped being fun.
“I had to dress up like a schoolgirl.
“But Christian didn’t pay any attention to how I felt. When I complained about going there he got aggressive.
'HATED WOMEN'
“A friend of mine lived with Christian’s friend in the house next door. We used to all go to the swingers club together.
“But it got too much for both of us, me and the other woman, so we both ran away from it all.”
Anastasia said she felt Christian B “hated women”.
She added: “Christian is a human pig. That’s how you should see him today. Today I know what he’s accused of.”
In January this year, another former girlfriend, Nicole Fehlinger, told how she lived with Christian B in the Algarve in 2001.
Anastasia believes she once saw him arguing with her.
She said: “I was in the kiosk and the two of them were in the private rooms.
“I heard them shouting and then he came out to the kiosk and drank a Jägermeister after another.
“I asked him what was going on and he replied, ‘Nothing is going on. It is just a friend from Portugal who is stressed’.
“I knew Christian was lying. He was sweating and aggressive.”
Fehlinger was herself implicated in the case when it was reported Christian B might have called her number in the Praia da Luz area on the night of the abduction.
'CHRISTIAN IS A HUMAN PIG'
But she protested her innocence, saying: “I have nothing to do with the disappearance and am not involved in the case. I was his lover, not his accomplice.”
Christian B first became publicly known as a suspect in 2020 when German police named him but it later emerged he had been under suspicion since as early as 2008.
The Sun on Sunday revealed last month that Scotland Yard’s Operation Grange team investigating Madeleine’s disappearance was winding down towards September.
Sources said this was because it had no new significant leads to act upon — including with regards to Christian B — but could always reactivate the inquiry if necessary.
The Sun reported yesterday how Christian B agreed to talk to British former detective turned TV presenter Mark Williams-Thomas for a documentary.
He said: “The interview was blocked by prison authorities.
“We have since been in contact at length in writing and he has explained his position to me in detail.

“He has told me exactly where he was on the night Madeleine disappeared — and that he was not where the police say he was.
“He also insists that he is entirely innocent.”
