International child-abduction cases in the news — by country

A searchable, continuously-collected tracker of real parental child-abduction cases and reporting from around the world. Search by country, by case, or by date. Each entry links to its source. These are research leads, verified against a source before we cite them — not legal advice.

⚠️ Research leads. Auto-collected in each country's local language and filtered to news reports & court/case-law sources. Verify each against its primary source before citing, and follow public-record-only, no-private-detail editorial rules. Dates are approximate where the source gave a relative date.
