Confirming GNR suspicions while also MORE importantly removing Fiona Paynes doubts .

Fiona Payne found it odd that Kate was checking for the twins breathing. Kate , now claims she thought the twins had been drugged the night of May 3rd.  Fiona watched her check the children and yet Kate did not mention this revelation to Fiona. Fiona noticed Kates checks and told of this in her police statement ,  she mentioned how she herself found it odd the children did not wake  which leaves me to believe Fiona did not know the McCanns had  drugged their children.

Lets move on , Kate so concerned that she waited until May 5th 8 pm ,  to ask a Leicestershire police officer if there had been any thoughts by the PJ  of the children having been drugged...48 hours and as Kate well knew if her bluff WAS called and blood tests taken,  any trace of drugs by that time would have left her childrens bodies.

This statement (composed of 2 pages and signed by me) is true and in accordance with my understanding.



Date: 25th April 2008



Signature

I am police officer Markley of the Leicestershire Police currently working in the criminal unit.



In 2007 and in relation to the Portuguese investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, I was detached to Portugal in the role of family communication officer.



According to the Portuguese PJ Letter of Request, I was asked to respond to the following question:



Was there anything done or said by Kate or Gerry McCann in your presence or during your various meetings that could raise any suspicion that they had any knowledge about what could have happened to Madeleine, beyond the circumstances described tothe Portuguese investigators?


My reply to the question was: No.



However, in relation to the above, I would like to add the following: At about 20.00 on Saturday 5th May 2007, I arrived at the apartment where Kate and Gerry were staying, with other officers. During the meeting Gerald and Kate had a number of questions to which they wanted follow up and responses from the PJ.



One of these questions was that they wanted the PJ to be aware of was Madeleine’s revelation about Wednesday night, when she said that she was left alone during the night. She told Kate and Gerry that she remembered the twins crying and that she wanted to know why neither her mother nor her father had gone to the room to see what was happening.





They also wanted to know whether the PJ had any evidence that would suggest that the person who took Madeleine had used any substance to facilitate the abduction.



This statement was made by me and is truthful in accordance with my understanding.
