OK.
There are at least three ways an intruder could have entered the apartment. You have chosen to suggest a front door key was used but there's nothing which points to that being true. As you say, there's no evidence of it happening.
The reason for that is it is so hidden way from sight, virtually pitch black and nobody passes it. So easy to get in using a key and so many ways of getting a key. Also no finger prints if a key is used to enter and exit ... no need to touch the door. also other apartments had been entered by mysterious means. Keys are so useful to go in and out ... but windows need opening to escape in an emergency (Mrs Fenns apartment)
There's very little evidence that the window and shutters were open, and none to suggest who may have done it or how. There's no way to verify if the door position changed.
If kate thinks the door position changed and Gerry too, that is good enough for me. How come youi believe every word that Amaral says when he is a Court proven liar = Perjurer.
We dont know who used that window and maybe it was open for escaping in emergency, but also maybe for instructions to the lifter from Tannerman. TYhere are several reasons why the window could be open. I have listed them elsewhere
There is evidence of Kate McCann touching the window. There's no evidence that anyone else did.
It would be amazing if there were no fingerprints from Kate on that window. Seems someone wiped all the prints off, knowing that Kate and family would likely touch them as they inevitably, IMO, looked out to try and spot Madeleine outside.
Cigarette ends on a balcony are not evidence of a watcher'. The PJ had an operations base in block 6 and they could have used the balcony for smoking.
Is that so? Cite please. Another guest at OC thought that the pile of cigarette ends was significant.
A man standing in a street looking in a certain direction? it's not against the law and it doesn't mean he was planning any wrong-doing.
Three different groups of people NOTICED him and observed that he appeared to be watching 5A. Ignore that if you wish, but by ignoring it you are showing yourself to be NOT very discerning.
On 3rd May there was a lot of vegetation near 5A which isn't on your photo, so it's not a fact that the door and window could be seen from block 6.
There was a gap between the trees and 5A in the right place and plenty wide enouigh for a watcher on the balcony to see and direct an abductor on the pathway outside the front door and Madeleines bedroom window
So what 'facts' do we end up with?
Lots for you to chose from in my posts. Suggest you do a bit of work yourself and save me typing unnecessarily.
It was said that a door moved and that a shutter and window were open. The fact is 'it was said'.
Well you can disbelieve everything the Mccanns and tapas group said if that rocks your boat, but none of them have a record for dishonesty as Amaral does. Yet you believe everything he says. I wonder why?
Kate McCann touched the window.
A man was seen in the street looking in the direction of 5A.
Some cigarette ends were seen on a balcony.
Why do you have a need to demean these things? Dismissing everything that goes against your agenda. How about taking them seriously for a change? Think a little deeper Gunit. We might make a good detective of you yet !

Now I wonder how come you didn't see this photo ?

Shows the balconies clearly doesn't it ? And your photo shows that there was a gap through at the time, cos you can see the conifer tree, but the balconies are just off the picture in your image.
Time to concede, Gunit ?
