The first eyewitness account of the frantic moments after Madeleine McCann disappeared can be revealed today. Nanny Charlotte Pennington confirms that Kate McCann did scream: "They've taken her, they've taken her!"
The mother's precise words have become a pivotal issue in the case, with Portuguese police questioning why she would automatically assume Maddie had been abducted.

Kate McCann spoke of the initial moment she went to check on Madeleine, only to discover she was gone.
'I was looking into Madeleine's bed and I couldn't make her out and I wondered if she was in our bed.
'She wasn't in our bed. That was the first time panic kicked in.
'It was at that point the curtains opened and I could see the windows were open... so I knew straight away that Madeleine had been taken.'

Why would open curtains and windows imply abduction? If I was abducting somebody I wouldn't open the curtains for passers by to be able see inside. Then again I wouldn't do it in a busy resort when other people would have been awake and walking about. Far too much risk of being caught.
