But she never got there.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The adults went out looking for the youngster, assuming she must have taken a wrong turn and would easily be found nearby.<\/p>\n<p>However, as the hours went by, things became increasingly desperate.<\/p>\n<p>They searched all night, and the next day some 500 locals joined in the hunt. The huge forest area around Wilhelmshof was combed for days, in vain.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Desperate to stay positive, Mrs Gehricke has since said: &#8216;I thought: You\u00a0will definitely find my child, it is just a matter of time.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But she said the fear grew increasingly strong that Inga must have been kidnapped, adding: &#8216;Then you mistrust everyone at that moment.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The family called the police who initially suspected she had run into the forest that spans around 20 square miles, prompting a wider search of the immediate area, but this proved fruitless, and the hunt for Inga expanded in the following days.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/08\/12\/29283302-12826673-A_pictured_of_Madeleine_McCann_left_taken_in_Portugal_shortly_be-a-13_1702036814585.jpg\" height=\"573\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>A pictured of Madeleine McCann (left) taken in Portugal shortly before she went missing is seen next to a picture of 5-year-old Inga Gehricke (right), who disappeared on May 2, 2015 without a trace on a family outing in Wilhelmshof near Stendal<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/08\/12\/78649189-12826673-The_case_quickly_drew_comparisons_with_the_2007_disappearance_of-a-8_1702036814574.jpg\" height=\"792\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The case quickly drew comparisons with the 2007 disappearance of Madeline McCann, a British girl who vanished from her family&#8217;s hotel room in Portugal at the age of three<\/p>\n<p>On May 4, two days after her disappearance, 1,000 police officers were joined by volunteers, helpers from the fire department and a technical response agency.<\/p>\n<p>Helicopters with thermal cameras and sniffer dogs were also sent into the field, but it proved difficult to find even a trace of the young girl.<\/p>\n<p>There was also little in the way of sightings for police to go off, something which was\u00a0largely put down to the density of the forest.<\/p>\n<p>One man came forward to say that he heard screaming on the day Inga vanished.<\/p>\n<p>With the vast police resources not picking anything up, it soon became clear that the youngster was not going to be found in the forest.<\/p>\n<p>After four days and nights of searching, which included pumping out ponds as well as checking tripping hazards and slopes, the search of the woodland was called off, and on May 7 police officially said a crime was the most likely explanation<\/p>\n<p>Reimar Klockziem, the head of the investigation, told reporters in Germany that Inga&#8217;s disappearance was &#8216;inexplicable and unbelievable&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was like she had been\u00a0&#8216;beamed away from the world&#8217;, he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, media interest in the case was growing, and comparisons were soon made between the disappearance of Inga and that of Madeleine McCann in 2007, who was three when she disappeared in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p>As with Inga, Madeleine had been away from home with her family when she went missing, and extensive investigations found little to no trace of her, with a\u00a0kidnapping soon deemed to be the most likely cause.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Inga&#8217;s face being plastered all over the German press, a 25,000 euro reward being offered for information about her whereabouts, and cops receiving more than 2,000 tip offs, police found no solid leads to advance the case.<\/p>\n<p>Publication Bunte said in May 2020, that &#8216;only a few missing person cases are not cleared up in Germany for a long time. One of them is that of Inga.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Profiler Axel Petermann told Bunte that, unusually, there was &#8216;no recognisable motive, no crime scene, no traces of a crime, and no body.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>After two years of dead ends, the German police made the difficult decision to close the case in 2017, leading to immense disappointment among Inga&#8217;s family.<\/p>\n<p>That same year, her parents\u00a0Jens-Uwe and Victoria divorced.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, they have both said they are united in their belief that Inga is still alive.<\/p>\n<p>In the years since, as hope has faded over the mystery ever being solved, criticism of the police&#8217;s handling has grown louder.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, the lawyers for Inga&#8217;s parents, as well as her older brother, accused the police and judiciary of mishandling the case.<\/p>\n<p>They said despite the 2,000 trips, investigations came to nothing.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Berlin-based lawyer Steffen Tzschoppe &#8211; who represents some of Inga&#8217;s family &#8211; told Germany&#8217;s Bild newspaper: &#8216;There are still plenty of investigative approaches that have never been pursued.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;So far we have largely fallen on deaf ears with the investigation requests and suggestions. The files reveal that investigative approaches have also been stopped through active action,&#8217; he added.<\/p>\n<p>While the investigation has yet to result in any charges, there have been two key suspects in the case: Martin H. and Christian Brueckner. Much of the criticism levelled at the police has been in relation to the handling of suspects.<\/p>\n<p>Tzschoppe told politicians in February that 1,900 pages of investigation files on the activities of Martin H., a convicted paedophile, had simply disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>And earlier this year, it emerged that police had found a sex doll in his abandoned house that they bizarrely revealed resembled Inga.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators then checked on a new lead that linked her disappearance with the 41-year-old, who is originally from the same region where the five-year-old vanished.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/08\/12\/78732707-12826673-Earlier_this_year_it_emerged_that_police_had_found_a_sex_doll_in-a-16_1702037275650.jpg\" height=\"855\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, it emerged that police had found a sex doll in a convicted paedophile&#8217;s abandoned house that they bizarrely revealed resembled Inga<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/08\/12\/78732703-12826673-Martin_H_s_abandoned_house_is_seen_in_this_general_view_The_offe-a-17_1702037279045.jpg\" height=\"476\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Martin H&#8217;s abandoned house is seen in this general view.

Nothing was found except Brueckner&#8217;s USB stash of child abuse.\u00a0He was prosecuted over the vile images but he was never charged with Inga&#8217;s disappearance.<\/p>\n<p>Brueckner has been linked to a series of other child abductions and murders in Portugal and Germany, making him among the top suspects in Inga&#8217;s case.<\/p>\n<p>He is currently in jail in Kiel, in the German state of Schlweswig-Holstein, for drug dealing, and is appealing against a conviction for the 2005 rape of a woman near the Praia da Luz resort where\u00a0Madeleine McCann went missing.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of McCann, Brueckner&#8217;s lawyers are said to have been given hope by recent claims that German investigators failed to find physical evidence tying him to the girl during a search in Portugal earlier this year in an area near a lake.<\/p>\n<p>Last month it was reported that he might have taken photos of the missing toddler and buried them in an underground hideaway at a reservoir in the Algarve. He\u00a0is alleged to have taken &#8216;trophies&#8217; from his victims in the past.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/08\/12\/29267078-12826673-Pictuerd_The_site_of_an_abandoned_box_factory_in_Neuwegersleben_-a-11_1702036814581.jpg\" height=\"477\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pictuerd: The site of an abandoned box factory in\u00a0Neuwegersleben, Germany, where Christian Brueckner lived in a caravan and hid child pornography among animal bones.
