The mother of kidnapped French baby Santiago has been extradited to France, while the father opted for a longer legal process. Santiago, born prematurely, was abducted from a Paris hospital shortly after birth. French authorities, alerted to his unsafe condition, located the parents in an Amsterdam hotel two days later. After being hospitalized, Santiago was returned to France on October 31. Investigations into the family’s background suggest possible involvement in drug trafficking and theft, leading to speculation about their motives for the abduction.
