Alex Batty pleads 'don't send my mother and grandfather to jail' in first TV interview since 'kidnapping'

Alex Batty has said he does not want to see his mother or grandfather “locked up” as the teenager who went missing for six years gave his first TV interview.

Alex, 17, returned to the UK last month after spending the last six years living in a “nomadic spiritual community” with his mother, who is not his official guardian, in mainland Europe.
