Suddenly he was gone. Alex B.*, then 11 years old, disappeared in 2017 while on holiday in Spain with his mother and grandfather. Now he has appeared again. He was discovered by police on Wednesday evening in Haute-Garonne, in southwestern France.
What happened? The boy lived with his grandmother until his disappearance after his mother experienced domestic violence. The two-week holiday in Spain was an exception.
Normally she shouldn’t have been alone with her son. But when Alex B. suddenly stopped calling, his grandmother became concerned and called the police. The fear: Her grandson was kidnapped – by her daughter and her ex-husband.
Alex B.’s parents lead an alternative lifestyle and may want to prevent their son from attending a normal school. According to the French newspaper La Depeche, they are said to be part of a spiritual community living in tents, caravans and huts in the south of France. And Alex B. should be part of that.
The grandmother’s suspicions have now been confirmed. According to his own statement, the teenager reportedly spent years in the community. But now he has decided to “live his own life”.
That’s why he left the group. He wandered the area for days until a truck driver discovered him and took him away. The boy seemed strange to him.
That’s why he called the police. Unable to find an identity card or other documents proving his identity, they took him away. At the station he then told his special story, according to “La Depeche”. French police then contacted their counterparts in Britain.
The responsible researchers confirm that officials from France have contacted us about the missing Alex B.. Police in Great Britain say they have made contact to check its authenticity.
A press release continued: “This is a complex and lengthy investigation and we must investigate it further and take appropriate protective measures.” (ymh)
