The family of missing British child Madeleine McCann released two sketches Sunday of a man who may be linked to her disappearance last May from a holiday resort in Portugal, CNN reported.

The first sketch -- of a moustached white man with olive-colored skin and collar-length dark scraggly hair -- was composed based on the recollection of a 50-year-old woman who was staying in a villa near the McCann family last year.

The second sketch shows the same man walking with his hand tucked into the pockets of his light-colored pants. He is wearing a green shirt and a brown jacket.

"We want to know who he is and we want to know where he is," said family spokesman Clarence Mitchell, speaking to reporters.

He urged the man to come forward so that police can rule him out as a suspect if they determine that he is not involved in Madeleine's disappearance.

The four-year-old girl vanished from the apartment room at the Portuguese Praia da Luz resort on 3 May while her parents were eating with friends at a nearby restaurant.

The family maintains Madeleine was abducted and has campaigned internationally to secure the safe return of their daughter.
