In connection with the custody dispute over two children of entrepreneur Christina Block, the Hamburg police visited the family on Wednesday evening. “We were able to convince ourselves that the children are with Ms. Block and that they appear to be physically well,” said police spokeswoman Sandra Levgrün. The youth welfare office was also involved in the visit.
The police and the public prosecutor’s office simultaneously stated that they were still busy clarifying what happened and taking the necessary measures. “To protect ongoing investigations and to protect personal rights, no further information can be provided at the moment,” it said.
The father of the two children was attacked by unknown people in southern Denmark on New Year’s Eve. According to the Danish police, the perpetrators took the 10-year-old boy and the 13-year-old girl in a car. The Danish police said in a statement that they were being investigated for assault and deprivation of liberty.
