A BRITISH five-year-old at the centre of a worldwide emergency search yesterday (Saturday) has been found in the Torre del Mar area of Málaga and his parents arrested.
Ashya King, who has recently been operated on at Southampton General Hospital for a massive malignant stage-four brain tumour, was taken out of the centre by his parents against medical advice.
He is now in the maternity and paediatric unit of Vélez-Málaga hospital and his father Brett, 51, and mother Naghemeh, 45 have been taken into custody.
Interpol was informed after the couple took their son from hospital on Thursday lunchtime – which they are allowed to do for short periods, as he is a long-term patient in rehabilitation – and had not returned for over six hours, but were seen on Friday afternoon boarding a ferry heading for Cherbourg, northern France from Portsmouth.
