That is interesting. I had wondered why none of the British media had not mentioned anything ,even that a press conference was due to be held later today in Pakistan.

 

[MrsWatson]

Not a word about an arrest in any UK MSM outlets, not even the sketchier ones.

 

[Dotta]

I guess they have their reasons

The sources said the trio was arrested from Sialkot, around 100 kilometres from Jhelum, on Tuesday night. They were being interrogated at an undisclosed location, said the sources.

Fingers crossed.

I guess
A lot is happening "behind the scenes"
And I mean
A LOT

We shall see soon is my prediction

Poor kids though; a little over a month ago they were living a fairly normal British life, and now they're stuck in a Pakistani orphanage (let's be honest, that's what it is) with a murdered sister and parents who have f*cked off to save their own skin.

Even assuming they have the language skills to communicate their needs, there's no guarantee that they will have their needs met.

I hope they are returned to the UK, but it's unclear if extended family members will be willing and deemed suitable to look after them via a kinship care arrangement, and in the event that they go into foster care the chances are that they will be split up - good luck finding a foster carer with five spare bedrooms.

None of the options are great for the kids right now, it's just that some are less awful than others.

I agree with everything you said except that it’s doubtful they were living a fairly normal life with the abuse that was going on around them - even if it wasn’t directed at them, although for all we know they could have been directly affected too. These poor children have had a pretty rough time so far, and like you say none of the options are great right now.

I really hope they are able to bring the kids back to the UK.
No the options aren't great for them but I think that would be for the best.

With the sister being tortured, it was certainly NOT a normal life for the siblings

Wherever they are now, they are in a much better place.

Completely agree. They are all, bar one, old enough to have seen and heard things. And even for the youngest, atmosphere can be absorbed even when actions might not be totally understood.

Whatever their options right now, at least they are no longer living in an abusive household.

all MOO of course.
