Police say the father Imran Safi, 26, may have abducted his sons because they were about to be officially adopted....
Police are searching for three young brothers kidnapped by their father from a foster home in south London. Detectives have appealed for any sightings of the boys and their father who they fear may have taken them abroad. Police say the father Imran Safi, 26, may have abducted his sons because they were about to be officially adopted. They believe he planned the kidnap with the help of others. Eight suspects, including members of the family, have been arrested and questioned. Mr Safi is said to have threatened the boys' foster mother with a knife before driving off with them in his distinctive red Nissan Qashqai car in Coulsden Road, Croydon, South London, last Thursday afternoon. Commander Jon Savell, of the Metropolitan Police, said: "We are concerned for the boys' welfare, though we don't believe there is imminent risk of harm. We would have expected to have found them by now. https://news.sky.com/story/urgent-ap...ondon-12057804 |

...I guess that we don’t know which parent or whether both parents, had custody at the time the buys went into care...he may just have had access rights to seeing them...but as they were about to be adopted, he would have lost those...

Well it would be sad if he wanted them but they decided to have them adopted rather than let him raise them when they were taken from the mother (unless there is a good reason why that wasn't given as an option)

....yeah it’ll be interesting to see the outcome ...I can only go by my own personal experience of looked after children ...and there has always been reasons why adoption has been considered as the only way for the children...it’s always the ‘last option’ as well, that’s why the time taken and it doesn’t happen quickly...because it’s always best for a child to be with the parent or parents it’s familiar with if possible...
