Police are still questioning Shannon Matthews' mother in connection with the schoolgirl's disappearance.

Karen Matthews was arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice three weeks after nine-year-old Shannon was found.

Police sources said detectives had been granted a superintendent's extension to allow further questioning but officers will have to charge her with an offence at some stage today or appeal to a magistrate for more time.

According to reports, Mrs Matthews was arrested after she told a police family liaison officer she had known where Shannon was all along.

Mrs Matthews is the fourth family member to be arrested in connection with the nine-year-old's disappearance on February 19.

A fifth person, Mrs Matthews' boyfriend Craig Meehan, has been charged with possessing child porn and has been remanded in custody.

Shannon was discovered in the base of a bed at an address just one mile from her home after a 24-day police search.

Michael Donovan, formerly known as Paul Drake, of Lidgate Gardens, Batley Carr, was arrested on March 14 after Shannon was found in the bed at his flat. The 39-year-old is the uncle of Shannon's 22-year-old Meehan.

Meehan appeared at Dewsbury Magistrates' Court charged with 11 counts of possessing indecent images of children.

He was remanded in custody to appear again before the same court on Friday.

Meehan's sister, Amanda Hyett, 25, who lives next door to Shannon's mother in Moorside Road, and his mother, Alice Meehan, 49, were both arrested in connection with the alleged abduction.

The women were arrested on Thursday, the 25-year-old on suspicion of assisting an offender, and the 49-year-old on suspicion of attempting to pervert the course of justice.

The pair were granted bail the following day pending further inquiries.

While police searched for Shannon, someone claiming to be her aunt asked for money from the fund set up to help find missing Madeleine McCann.

Family spokesman Clarence Mitchell said: "She didn't seem to understand why we couldn't just send a large wad of cash. I must admit I found it a bit odd.

"The fund directors considered helping the search as a gesture of goodwill. But I was concerned about the haphazard method of approach and suggested we didn't get involved." "

For what it is worth
