Return to France. While the parents of Santiago, a baby born extremely premature in Paris and found in an Amsterdam hotel last Friday, were held in pre-trial detention in Amsterdam with a view to extradition, the infant’s mother accepted the judge’s decision and will be brought back to France “probably next week”, according to information from the Amsterdam court to CNEWS.
For his part, the father opted for a longer procedure and his extradition request will be processed later at a public hearing. No court date has been set at this time.
four days of pursuit
Santiago was kidnapped on Monday October 21 by his parents aged 23 and 25 in the neonatology department of a hospital in Aulnay-sous-Bois, near Paris. The newborn, then only 17 days old, required constant care in an incubator, having been born eight weeks early.
At the end of four days of a race against the clock across three countries, the Dutch police arrested last Friday around 7 p.m. in an Amsterdam hotel room the two parents with their child, whose fragility raised fears for his life in the absence of hospital care.
