Missing Boy With Brain Tumour Found In Spain

Missing five-year-old Ashya King and his family have been found in
Spain, Hampshire Police have said.
Spanish police are now questioning the boy's parents, for whom a
European arrest warrant had been issued.

Ashya, who suffers from a brain tumour, had been taken out of
Southampton General Hospital by his mother and father against medical
advice.

Police in Hampshire could not confirm what condition the boy was in
nor where in Spain the family was found.

Earlier, officers said they thought his family had "taken steps to be
able to feed him".

It was feared the battery on Ashya's medical feeding unit, which was
designed only for temporary use and was not easy to replace, had run
out.

Police had said it was unclear whether Ashya's parents, Brett and
Naghemeh King, had spare batteries.
