Laras mother and father meet in Turkey they got married, and Lara was born. Lara was born in Sweden but has been living her whole life in Turkey, except the short periods that she spent in Sweden on holidays with her mother, at the most four months a year.

Lara’s mother said that she was going back to Sweden for holiday. Hakan, the father of Lara, had no problem with that, and let them go. Just a while after Lara’s mother returned to Sweden with Lara, she sent divorce papers to Hakan, and announced on Facebook that she was engaged to another man.

Hakan tried calling his wife, but she never picked up the phone. She just sent him a text message that she would not come back to Turkey, and that he would never see Lara again.

Hakan contacted a Swedish lawyer, and eight months later there was a trial in Sweden. Hakan came to Sweden for the trial, and he won. The court said that Lara belonged in Turkey, since she has been living there her whole life, and that the custody trial should be held in Turkey. Therefore Lara must return to Turkey.

After the trial Lara’s mother allowed Hakan to see his little girl for a couple of hours. The fiancée of Hakan’s wife was also present at this time, and to Hakan’s surprise, Lara called her mother’s fiancée “daddy”. Hakan could have brought Lara with him to Turkey after the trial, but he felt that it would be better for Lara, if he gave his wife a little bit of time, and that she would then return to Turkey with Lara herself.

Hakan returned to Turkey, and waited for his daughter to return with her mother. That did not happen, so Hakan packed his bags, and went back to Sweden to bring his daughter back home.

Upon his arrival to Sweden, his Swedish lawyer contacted the Police to make all the arrangements.
Lara was supposed to get picked up by Hakan and the Police, but when they went to get Lara she was nowhere to be found.

Lara’s mother has now kidnapped Lara, and nobody knows where to find them. Lara is both a Swedish and a Turkish citizen, and she was not about to get deported from Sweden. She just had to go back home for the custody trial. Hakan never wanted to take Lara from her mother, because he believes that all children have the right to both their parents. But Lara’s mother does not want Lara to have anything to do with her father, and has now kidnapped her.

Hakan has gone from seeing his daughter every day, to seeing her for a couple of hours last year. Even though Hakan won in court , the Swedish police are not doing enought to help finding Lara ... PLEASE JOIN.
