Boy missing for 6 years found in France after being taken by mother to 'spiritual community'

Alex Batty, a British boy who went missing in 2017 at the age of 11, has been found walking along a road in France. His mother likely took him to pursue an "alternative lifestyle," according to his grandmother. Batty revealed that he had been taken to Morocco before living a nomadic lifestyle in the Pyrenees mountain range. He contacted his grandmother through a driver's Facebook account and expressed his desire to come home. The circumstances surrounding his mother's decision to move to Finland remain unclear.
