The Police say they spoke to Mikaeel's biological father earlier in the week,but where is he? His baby son was missing and now sadly found dead and yet he hasn't shown his face once or commented. Does he not care? As he hasn't been named (or seen) am wondering if he is maybe a well known public figure that Ms Kular had an affair with? He was also said to be overjoyed about the twins birth and yet his name does not appear on the birth certificate. All very odd,or perhaps I am too overly suspicious!
It's a good point, amanda. And a very warm welcome here.
Why is the finger of blame being pointed solely on the mother and not the father, who is equally responsible for the child's welfare whether he is living in the same property or not?
Having said that there is a lot going on behind the scenes here we don't yet know. Perhaps the mother tried to prevent him from seeing the children - who knows.
Regarding the reporting of names and events, this is strictly governed in Scottish Law.
It is actually illegal, as far as I understand it, to print the name or publish the photograph in a newspaper of someone charged or involved in a serious crime for which court proceedings are pending.
The English press have often been sued for covering Scottish cases in too much detail - and will (or should!) be consulting their lawyers on this one.
