Interpol searching for woman who tried to become adopted as "child"

The Czech authorities have asked Interpol to search for Barbora Skrlova, a woman in her 30s who attempted to become adopted in the guise of a 13-year-old girl. She was last heard of in Denmark. A representative of the Brno state attorney's office told Mlada fronta Dnes that the only way it could question Ms Skrlova was through the national authorities wherever she is, hence the request to Interpol. The bizarre story of her "adoption" emerged following an investigation into the abuse of a 7-year-old boy. The family involved are believed to have been members of a cult.
