Melisa’s mother had already said that the father had kidnapped their daughter and was possibly en route to Turkey. Initially, the police did not want to speak of a kidnapping. “We do not know whether she was taken against her will, because we were not there. We also have to deal with the privacy of the girl and her family,” a spokesperson said earlier on Wednesday. However, the police already indicated that there were concerns. “Look, in a normal situation a father is allowed to go out with his daughter, but as the police we do not go looking if there is a normal situation, so there are a few things going on.”
