French Father Arrested in Portugal After Fleeing with Kidnapped Children Bound for Morocco
The Portuguese Foreigners and Borders Service (SEF) has located two Italian minors kidnapped in France last year by their father. The latter was trying to bring them back to Morocco after refusing to entrust them to the French social services.
The two children were traveling with their father and a third younger brother. The flight that was transporting them from Italy to Morocco made a stopover in Porto, which allowed them to be located, say SEF sources to EFE.
The facts date back to July 2020, when the French authorities, in the interest of protecting these minors aged 13 and 11, took a protective measure to entrust the children to social services, even as they were kidnapped by their father.
The minors and their father were made available to the judicial authority of the Family and Minors Court of Matosinhos (Porto).
