Plea for children’s return

A MOTHER of two missing children yesterday appealed to those holding her sons to hand them back.

Bailba Saulite has not seen her boys since her estranged partner, Hassan Hassan, took them a month ago.

Hassan, who is in custody for failing to give the children back, claims the children are with a relative in the Lebanon, his home country.

Appealing to those relatives, Bailba said: “Wake up and just think how you would feel if this happened to any of your kids.

“I am the mummy and any kid needs their mother. Stop doing this. In my eyes this is a criminal thing, just give the kids back.”

Gardaí said they did not know where Mohamed Rami Hassan, aged one, and Ali Alexandra Hassan, aged two, were.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Swords Garda Station at 01-6664700 or their local station.
