Danish couple on their way home to face trial

A Danish couple who kidnapped their new-born son from a Danish hospital in mid-July and fled with him to Brno, Moravia, has been handed over to the Danish authorities, a police spokeswoman told CTK news agency. The baby’s mother is an addict and the child was born with a heroine addiction. The couple faces up to eight years in prison for the kidnapping, which doctors claim endangered the baby’s life.
