MYSTERY: The slim, Portuguese-looking woman was seen outside the McCann's apartment


Sunday May 10,2009

A WOMAN was seen acting suspiciously outside Kate and Gerry McCann’s
apartment just an hour before their daughter Madeleine was abducted.
The slim, Portuguese-looking woman in a plum-coloured top and white skirt with long, dark, swept-back hair acted furtively when she was spotted at 8pm on May 3 in 2007 near the Mark Warner Ocean Club complex. She was standing under a streetlight at a crossroads only 40 feet from where Madeleine was sleeping with her brother Sean and his twin sister Amelie. Investigators are being urged to find her to see if she was in any way connected to a pockmarked prowler seen several times outside the apartment in the day leading up to the kidnap. Details of the mystery woman have only just become known after a Sunday Express investigation into the baffling case was alerted by an elderly British woman who has lived in Praia da Luz on Portugal’s Algarve for more than 30 years. Speaking from her villa near the Ocean Club, the woman, who has asked not to be named, recalled: “On that night I went to the supermarket at the bottomof the road just before it closed at 8pm.
“As I drove past the entrance to the Ocean Club I saw a woman standing opposite Apartment 5A the McCanns were staying in. “Even at that time of night the streets were deserted, so I was surprised to see someone there. I remember thinking it was unusual because it is just not the sort of place you would hang around. “As I drove up to the junction she stepped around to the other side of the street lamp as though she didn’t want me to look at her. She was not carrying a bag or a mobile phone. I thought she might have been waiting for a lift but no car came along while I was there. “I turned right and could see quite clearly she was looking at Apartment 5A.


“As I approached another junction a small, brown car, with just one English-looking man in it swung round and nearly hit mine.”

When she heard that Madeleine had vanished she asked a relative to inform the police about her sightings. More than 30 people have so far phoned in about the artist’s impression shown on a Channel 4 documentary last Thursday of a scar-faced man seen loitering outside the McCanns’ apartment.

More rope to hang gonzo with.

Hope this wasn't one of the prank calls!!

Well let's hope this is genuine and good information. I prefer it when the witnesses stand up and are counted; then you can get a good idea whether they are genuine or not. However with the recent behaviour of, I think, a minority of PdL residents (+certain elements of the PJ!) no-one could blame any witness for being reluctant for their names to be publicised. Good of her come forward.

However, with all the red herrings that have abounded in this case, I'll bet there will be a few amongst these phone calls. Just hope that there weren't an abundance and all pointing in the wrong direction to waste time and money.

Our thanks go to this elderly lady and to all the other genuine witnesses who have come forward.

It is good that we have names.

It is unbelievable that some people would make hoax calls in the search for a missing child. Unbelievable yes, but surprising? No, certainly not, not after reading some of the despicable bullying and intimidating behaviour on the internet and of the ex solicitor hounding and stalking the McCanns. In fact the worse degrading sub-human behaviour possible coming from these quarters would not surprise me.

Such is these people's desire not to be proven wrong that they really do not care if what they are doing or saying or writing prevents Madeleine being found, because they obviously do not care about Madeleine, they only care about being right and getting their jollies from their daily fix of McCann baiting, what does the truth and acting responsibly and humanely matter to such people?

I read earlier on in this investigation that a lady driving past apartment 5a had reported seeing a woman lurking around outside, so if this is the same report i read it is probably genuine.

Equally if this is true then this is yet another lead that should have been linked to the man seen loitering around the apartment in the days leading up to Madeleine's abduction.

Getting their jollies is about right I think. I think Bennett is probably an inadequate character who is trying to prove something. I imagine he goes through life flitting from one attention-seeking "project" to another.

The gob-sh*tes on the forums are IMO just trailer trash types. When they aren't posting on forums, they are probably watching the Jermey Kyle show! (Actually they are probably more likely taking part in it!)
