Well, but the same is true for Dumbledore as well. How could he have 
known? Everything you mentioned above counts for him as well. Unless 
he really had a spy under the Invisibility cloak there, and I do not 
believe this, since I find this theory having to many holes. 

Or maybe a portrait was there, seeing what happened. That's a 
possibility. A portrait could have told both Dumbledore and the 
ministry, or even a random wizarding family, depending how other 
versions of the portrait are hanging.
