Ever heard about Filicide?

I wasn’t following the story of missing British girl Madeleine McCann, until recently when Portuguese police told press that her parents are suspects now. Experts are divided on the story and we should wait till investigation gets over. It's unfair to draw conclusions at this point of time.

It became an international story now. People even put together a website to search her ->

However something stuck me when I heard CNN host saying that as per statistics kids are killed by there parents more than anyone else. Although I couldn’t verify the claim, but what came out is that it’s a sizeable number.
