The young Camille, 5 years old at the time of her disappearance, was found in Switzerland. Her father said to himself in shock: it was her mother who had kidnapped her, and hid her for 11 years.
Alain Chauvet, 74, no longer dared to believe it. He has just learned that his daughter has finally been found, 11 years after being kidnapped. “A bomb on the head. (…) I have not yet recovered from this announcement”, he confides. Camille was 5 years old when she was kidnapped by her mother. She was found on March 1 near Lausanne, Switzerland, during a traffic check.
“I thought for a long time that she was dead. I will finally be able, if someone wants to give her to me, to see her again”, rejoices Alain Chauvet, still in shock. In the next few days, he will travel to Switzerland in the hope of finding his daughter, who is now 16 years old. “There is a risk of sobbing, that’s for sure, maybe on both sides”, he apprehends, however. The mother of the teenager, on the run, was sentenced to several years of imprisonment by French justice.
