Praia Da Luz: Portuguese police are still getting evidence in their investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, a senior detective said on Saturday.
The British girl disappeared from a resort in southern Portugal exactly one year ago.
"At this stage nothing has been determined regarding possible charges or closing the case," Alipio Ribeiro, chief of the investigative department, told Lusa news agency.
"The PJ continues to gather and analyze all available evidence," Ribeiro was quoted as saying.
Police have named as suspects Madeleine's parents, Kate and Gerry, and local man Robert Murat. They have all denied involvement.
Church services were due to be held in Praia da Luz and at the McCanns' home town in England to mark the anniversary.
