When, where and how did witnesses learn of MM's disappearance?

[Mr Gray]

Unless you are currently in the employ of SY/PJ how can you possibly know what is going on, especially given Portuguese secrecy laws surrounding criminal cases?

I don't know what SY/PJ are investigating but I think we can be 100% sure it's not your theory

A contradiction in terms I think: You don't know and yet you think you can be 100% sure?

Many holiday airlines carry London published newspapers with them so returning tourists can have a read.

Thanks. 

Are we really to believe that someone who was directly above 5A only 2/3.5 hours before MM disappeared did not learn about the disappearance until arriving home some 2/3 days later?  Especially given the hotel it is claimed one was staying at whilst in Portugal appears to have had satellite tv?

It offers spacious, air-conditioned rooms with satellite TV and private balconies.

Not at all... I think we can be 100% sure the McCanns are not being investigated too

Of course I can.  There is precedent which you choose to ignore.

[Mr Gray]

A witness who was in very close proximity to apartment 5A shortly before MM disappeared, in fact in the apartment directly above 5A, claims the first she was aware that a child had gone missing from the apartment below was when she arrived back in UK Sun morning and read about it in The Sunday Times.  However Saturday's edition covered the full story: front page and pages 2 and 3.

Can you provide a cite to support this claim

Well yes of course, & we can be 100% sure they didn't do it because......oh, wait, no we can't.

I've never said that... But I think we can be very close to 100%they are not involved

I'm 60/80% certain that we can't.

Wow, THAT unsure??  I’m amazed!

Just kidding. I'm 100% sure they dunnit, but I can't say so, because someone will report me for libel.

No one knows for sure the reason MM disappeared.  Some believe an accident in 5A and subsequent cover up by parents and members of T7.  Some, like myself, believe MM was abducted but I have no idea what the motive was: raise as own, sadistic/sexual, procure for a.n other for emotional/financial reasons, social experiment and potentially other reasons I haven't thought of.

Afaik this woman's testimony about returning to England on Saturday 5th May was not corroborated?  It seems she was in England on 8th May when she provided Leicester police with a wit stat but I have not seen the wit stat to know whether it was face-to-face or over the phone.  If the former then the meeting took place not at the home address but at a temporary place of work where rooms are available to anyone on a commercial basis. It seems the husband spoke to the police over the phone only.  He apparently had business in EU and therefore may have remained within the Schengen area.   

What evidence do you have to support the theory of abduction,save not to countenance  a different outcome?

That’s more like it!  I was beginning to think you’d come to your senses for a minute...

If the mccanns are not involved... And I think the evidence supports that... Then that makes abduction likely
