Madeleine McCann: Witness saw 'weird' stranger lurking near apartment day before she vanished
29 May 2013 00:00
He is convinced the lurker was involved in the kidnap and spoke out after the Daily Mirror visited his home in the Algarve

A vital witness has revealed he saw a man wearing sunglasses lurking in a stairwell near Madeleine McCann’s apartment 24 hours before she vanished.

Mario Fernando, 47, told Portuguese cops about the “weird” stranger lurking at the Ocean Club resort in Praia da Luz but has never been quizzed by British police or spoken publicly.

Now, six years after Madeleine disappeared, the laundryman has urged British detectives to speak to him.

Mario believes the man he saw the night before three-year-old Madeleine disappeared in May 2007 should be on Scotland Yard’s list too.

The divorced dad, who said he has always felt “uncomfortable” about the Portuguese police inquiry, spoke out after the Daily Mirror tracked him down at his home in the Algarve this week.

He also believes he may be one of 12 manual workers and cleaners Scotland Yard detectives have identified as “people of interest”.


Mario recalls a “nervous” man wearing big sunglasses hiding in a stairwell seconds away from the holiday apartment where parents Gerry and Kate were staying with their three children.

The laundryman is convinced the lurker was involved in the kidnap.

Part of Mario’s role at the Ocean Club was to collect dirty sheets from apartment blocks and drive them to the laundry room beneath the Tapas bar where the McCanns were when Maddy disappeared.

He said: “I was at my last collection point near the girl’s flat. I was always rushing. I’d park the van any-where.

"It was 7.30pm to 8pm. When cleaners cleared sheets they dropped them down the hole in the stairs to be collected by me at the bottom.

“When I walked down and turned into the hole to get the laundry, I saw the weird guy and we nearly bumped into each other. He was embarrassed. He looked nervous.

“He was walking out from the hole under the stairs and must have been much further inside but had taken several steps after hearing me coming. We were, like, dodging each other.

“He had a really fat face and had two-tone sunglasses on, they got lighter at the bottom and were big. I will never forget those glasses.

“There was no reason for him to be there and no reason to wear the glasses as it was dark under the stairs.

“He did not walk away but watched what I did. I collected the sheets and took them to the van outside. He stayed there watching me.

“I had never seen him before. I knew everyone who was living at the complex and he was not one of them.

“It is still recorded in my head like it was at the time. It was not usual for people to be there, in the shadows.

“My theory is that guy must have been involved, either in the kidnapping or studying what to do — their movements.

"He was there for something, for sure!”

Mario, who only started working at the Ocean Club a month before Madeleine vanished, said he identified a potential suspect to Portuguese police a few months after Madeleine went missing.

He spent hours with an officer looking at pictures and videos.

Investigators could then find no other evidence linking the identified man to the girl’s disappearance.

However, according to Portuguese files, officers asked British police to put more questions to this man – a full year after Madeleine vanished.

Mario was 80% convinced he was the man he saw but admits he could not be sure and now six years have passed.

Referring to Portugal’s “secrecy of justice” law, he said: “I couldn’t speak then. I’d been warned by police I would be in trouble if I spoke to anyone.”

But Mario now says: “I am available. I am happy to speak.

"I have not spoken to the British police about what I saw but I want the truth to be revealed.”

Twice-divorced Mario, who has a 21-year-old son and lives in a village on the outskirts of Praia da Luz, worked at the Ocean Club for nine months.

Describing the man who haunts him he explained: “He was quite tall and looked sort-of Scandinavian.

"He had lots of hair, close to his head — like it was glued. It was straight hair. He was about my age now — 45, 46.”

Det Chief Supt Hamish Campbell, head of Scotland Yard’s Homicide and Serious Crime Command, said earlier this month that there are many people who could be spoken to and eliminated from the inquiry.

Mario added: “I agree with what the British police have said and lots of people should be interviewed again.”

The McCanns, of Rothley, Leics, who have never given up looking for their daughter, have been kept closely informed of Scotland Yard’s review, codenamed Operation Grange, over the past two years.

Officials in Lisbon are still insisting they can reopen the case only if there is new evidence

This is his statement.....Can't see any mention of your suspicious man Mario

Witness Statement

Date: 2007/05/08

Mario Fernando Madeira Marreiros

Occupation: Laundry worker

Place of Work: OC

He has worked at the OC since the 5th March 2007 as a laundry worker as well as the driver of the laundry vehicles of the resort, delivering and collecting laundry (towels and sheets) from the apartments that make up the resort.

With relation to the events being investigated he states that on 4th May 2007, upon arriving at work at about 10.00 he saw that next to an apartment block there were various cars and police as well as members of the press, which he found strange.

Later, when he arrived at his place of work he was informed by colleagues that this "apparatus" was due to the disappearance of a little girl who had been staying at the resort.

He was informed that the girl was three years old, of British nationality and he observed that posters with her photograph and details were already up, with indications to follow in the case of information about her disappearance.


When questioned he said that he did not know the girl or her family, only having heard about them after the event.

When questioned about the day of the disappearance (03 May 2007) of the girl whose name he does not remember, he says he carried out his normal routine, arriving at his place of work at about 10.00, with a lunch break from 13.00 to 14.30, returning to work until 18.00. After work he returned home where he stayed with his wife until 21.30 when he went alone by car to Barao de Sao Joao, where his step son works.

After having picked up his step son he returned home where he stayed until the following day when he left for work.

He only knew about the events from the press and from his colleagues.

He knows nothing more apart from that the girl was on holiday with her family and twin siblings as he was informed later.

He does not know of anything suspicious that could be related to the events. (But he will in 6 years time)

ETA. I wonder if Mario is aware of this?

Mario added: “I agree with what the British police have said and lots of people should be interviewed again.”


You gotta love the way the papers keep pointing out that "people should be interviewed AGAIN"

I know NINE that should be 're-interviewed'

Kate's 'visit' to PDL?
Gotta spend her frauduently acquired, imo, 'fund' money on SOMETHING!
Sort of blows JT's carefully, crafted 'sighting' of 'a swarthy man' to smithereens, dosen't it?
Marios'sighting' is:
Describing the man who haunts him he explained: “He was quite tall and looked sort-of SCANDINAVIAN. (mainly all blue eyes, blonde hair chaps)
"He had lots of hair, close to his head — like it was glued. It was straight hair. He was about my age now — 45, 46.”

Oh dear, it seems as though as soon as Kate returns to UK, everyone forgets whats on the 'crib sheet'

So the REAL question is, who is lying, Mario or Jane T?

PG:
"I wonder if Mario is aware of this?"

Doubt it! But he will come to 'remember' it in about SIX years from now!

Sorry Jean, I did edit my post to add, is Mario even aware of this nonsense in the Mirror? If he is then he should be on the latest list of suspects.

Jean, I doubt it has little to do with Grange, just tabloids twisting the PJ interviews of those least unlikely to know what they are printing, in order to sell their tripe. Notice how they twisted Mario's time line of when he was at work and home with his wife.

Reading the PJ files and the Mirror, one would have Mario a suspect (not).

Mario a SUSPECT???

Nintendo will not be pleased with THAT!

If things get any more bizarre Maddie will be a suspect.

It looks like the papers are going to be drip feeding these non-stories in the run up to the libel case.

Desperation, is the word that springs to mind.

Mr & Mrs pink diarrhea again! Must be the water in Rothley Mansion.

Well, I am a pretty decent person and good looking as well.
If our type are weirdos. What is Mr & Mrs then? Curls your blood just to think.

Adolf Hilter looks warm against the frosty Mr by comparison.

Tie a balloon to the half bake actress Mrs and she will float into outer space, she's high as kite most times.

another one wanting his 15 min of fame.

If true, which I doubt, how could he know that the man did not belong there?

He seems a nit confused about the timing (going home at 18.00, being in the appartment at 19.30- 20.00). You get the impression PdL was in a time warp that evening.

Neill berry was seen near the stairwell around 6pm by a witness. He makes reference to it in his statement.

The question is though is he weird and does he wear huge sun glasses ? Get him back for questioning.

Wierdo's like these perhaps ?

Wasn't it reported that Mrs. mother said that more people would believe her daughter if she wasn't so attractive or something like that.

Sometimes I think the papers re-hash old stories to get hits on their sites. More hits, more advertising.

There's certainly no doubt about that, Plebgate. The same stories keep popping up apparently as new exclusives. Madeleine is the "new Diana" - any photo of the latter, no matter how silly the accompanying story, was guaranteed to sell the paper.

It's interesting though that this story, though on the front page, has a very small headline and is very much second fiddle to the bizarre story from China.

I don't think that Kate Weirdo will be pleased at not being considered number one in importance.

That is an insult to weirdos everywhere. Those two are in a different category completely.

Mario recalls a "nervous" man wearing BIG sunglasses.


"He had a really fat face and had two-tone sunglasses on, they got lighter at the bottom and were BIG."

"It seems 'he's' been on a diet, but yes, THAT is the 'man'", said Mario, after being shown an updated age progression photo of the 'suspect' by officers from Operation Grange.

"I WILL NEVER, NEVER, EVER FORGET THOSE GLASSES!" he added......."NEVER!"
