MADELEINE McCann suspect Christian Brueckner burgled rooms at Algarve hotels while working as a waiter, a court heard yesterday.
Prosecutors believe the paedophile broke in and snatched the British youngster from her parents' holiday resort apartment in May 2007.
Brueckner, 47, has not been charged with Madeleine's disappearance but is on trial accused of unconnected sex crimes. He is alleged to have raped three women and indecently exposed himself to children in Portugal between 2000 and 2017.
One of the crimes took place just weeks before Madeleine vanished from the Ocean Club complex in Praia da Luz, it is claimed.
Brueckner's pal Manfred Seyferth yesterday told a judge that he saw vile videotapes of Brueckner raping an elderly woman and a schoolgirl.
Seyferth said the pervert filmed himself dancing around the terrified youngster, then forced her to perform a sex act.
Brueckner tied the teenager to a post in his Praia da Luz farmhouse before recording the sickening attack, it is claimed. Seyferth, who spent time with the drifter in the Algarve in the early 2000s, described him as big-headed and arrogant.
