WITNESS
ONE was a young mum on
holiday in the resort, who twice saw the
pock-marked suspect acting
suspiciously.
The first time
was around 8am on April 29 2007.
She said: “I was
walking along the road with my daughter. I
grabbed her hand and pulled her towards me
because for some reason the man unnerved me.”
She next saw him
the day before Maddie was snatched.
She said: “He was
standing on the opposite side of the road to the
apartment. I would describe him as very ugly,
pitted skin with a large nose.”
WITNESS
TWO was a 12-year-old
girl who lives in Praia da Luz. She first saw
the suspect on April 30 at 8.15am as she walked
to a bus stop.
She said: “The
man seemed to be looking at the balcony of the
ground floor apartment. He was wearing a black
jacket and leaning against the wall.”
She spotted him
doing the same again at 12.25pm on May 2.
WITNESS
THREE, a tourist from
Cheshire, saw the suspect either on May 2 or May
3 at around 11.30am.
The woman, who
was on holiday with her husband, said: “I paid
particular attention to him because he appeared
to be focused on watching the apartment block.”
Poignant
There is a
poignant shot of Maddie’s bed, with her Cuddle
Cat toy and pink “blankie” still on it.
