The father of the girl who was abducted whilst on holiday in Portugal has spoken out with what he believes is the most justifiable idea for his missing daughter, Madeleine McCann.
Gerry McCann believes he may have been just a few feet away from the intruder who took his precious daughter, Madeleine.
He also revealed that he thinks the abductor was actually hiding in the holiday apartment when he went to check on his three children on the devastating day of May 3.
A friend of the McCann family added:
“Initially he thought that Madeleine might have got up and gone to the toilet or gone to get a drink or something, but now he thinks that the abductor must have been in there hiding.”
“He believes he came in, opened the door and didn’t have time to close it.”
“Once Gerry had left he would have known he had to come out very quickly, and because Gerry went out through the patio door, went out through the window.”
“He has no proof but that is what he believes.”
Is this just an attempt to steer the police away from the case of the mother being the potential abducter?
Or does Gerry McCann honestly feel as though this could be the only way Madelein McCann could have been taken?
Our thoughts and sympathy go out to the McCann family.
His theory centres on a bedroom door which he remembers finding ajar in the Praia da Luz flat, a family friend said.

I’m sorry, but this is a 3 year old girl left alone with her younger twin sister and brother. Left to fend for themselves while the parents were out dining. What is wrong with these parents?
This is what I initially thought too, but then I read that they were just on the patio outside of their apartment, and could see the apartment from where they were sitting, and they checked on their kids every 1/2 hour. So we have all been suckers for media that tries to portray these poor parents in the worst possible light.
That time was inconsistant, and they weren’t on a patio just outside but at a restaurant a good walk away. Either way, three young children who were far enough away for someone to sneak in and sneak out? They were negligent. People are criticized for putting their baby in a grocery cart and turning around for a second. THESE people left THREE children alone when there was a daycare readily available! There is no “media is just forcing a negative light”. This is how it happened!
