LONDON, ENGLAND: The family of the young woman claiming to be Madeleine McCann, who has been missing since May 3, 2007, is refusing a DNA test to determine if she is the missing girl, according to unconfirmed reports. Julia Wandelt, a 21-year-old Polish woman, gained notoriety after speculating that she could be Madeleine.

Dr Fia Johansson, a psychic medium and a private detective, is now on the case. Wandelt claims she is doing everything in her power to get to the bottom of the case quickly and spare the McCann family stress and worry. Fia claims she is trying to convince Wandelt's family to offer DNA testing to resolve any remaining questions about the girl's parentage. However, according to unconfirmed reports, they have refused.

Julia Wandelt's family refuse to take DNA test

Dr. Fia Johansson now asks a member of Julia's family to agree to a test that could provide immediate answers to Julia's questions about her ancestry. "We want to be very respectful to the McCann family, and respect the privacy of them and their kids while we don't know exactly who Julia is," Fia stated. She added, "My feeling is that we need to force the mother or a member of Julia's family to take the DNA test rather than disrupt the peace of Kate and Garry, which is not necessary," reports The Sun. 

'You can easily forge this'

Fia went on and claimed, "If a current family member will take a DNA test we could solve this. But they are refusing to. "I have been personally talking to Julia's mother and told her we will make her safe and secure in any way she needs but she is still refusing to take the test. She claims she has Julia's birth certificate but our worry is that you can easily forge this." Since 2007, more than $14 million has been invested in the investigation for her and is the biggest unsolved case so far.



 

According to media reports, Julia Faustyna—also known as Julia Wendell and Julia Wandelt—began posting videos and photos of herself online while expressing the possibility that she might be Kate and Gerry McCann's missing daughter, who vanished in Portugal in May 2007 at the age of three. Wandelt has been pleading with people on social media to get in touch with McCann's family and ask for their approval to perform a DNA test to find out the truth, reports She The People TV. She claims that she recognizes the person in the police sketch of Madeleine's kidnapper as her abuser and that she has a strong sense that she might be Madeleine. Her request for a DNA test has allegedly been authorized by the McCann family, and it will soon be carried out.
