Those poor kids. How terrifying to be snatched back and forth like that. The article referred to the video tape that the mercenaries had with them.

She was granted custody of the girls in Canada... most Canadian custody cases now ask the children as part of the decision process, so someone may have already asked them. It doesn't mean the father cared when he kidnapped them.
