In the autumn of 2016, a two-year-old girl was taken from her home in Amsterdam and moved across several borders as part of a well-planned operation orchestrated by her own father. Her journey involved a violent abduction, multiple changes of vehicle, and ultimately an illegal entry into India on false travel documents.
Nearly a decade later, Insiya Hemani remains in India – a girl who no longer knows her own mother, a woman who has launched a years-long legal and lobbying campaign to have her ex-husband convicted and be reunited with her child.
