Child missing in Edinburgh

Cant find any threads on this... This must be the biggest story at the moment. Its such an odd case, its just not adding up. When I first heard my immediate reaction was "custody dispute" now I don't know what to think...

Freezing outside aparantly they were gritting the roads. Poor kid why haven't they found him yet with all the manpower and resources they have?

Too many things about the story don't make sense, a 3 year old letting himself out? Not being at nursery all week? Not sleeping in the room he normally shared with his twin sister that night?

Cold but who cares? I mean really?

How many children have been killed worldwide since this one has gone missing?!

What's that got to do with anything?

I think theyre being very cagey with what theyre saying or not saying. As a mother of a 2.5 year old I don't buy for a minute that he got up, put a coat, shoes & gloves on & got out of a 1st floor flat. And all without the mother & 4 other siblings hearing anything. I find it strange too that there is no sign of the mother, thinking back to other high profile missing children the parents are usually all over the news begging for help to find the child..

last seen in his coat its hard enough to get a pair of shoes to stay on a kid at that age

So just because lots of other children have died, people aren't allowed to be concerned about the welfare of this one?
Great logic.

As a father of two you kids one slightly older than the missing boy I'm concerned full stop,

Definitely doesn't add up especially when the police asked witnesses who had actually seen the young lad in the in the previous 24 hours ,

No sighting on CCTV which apparently is installed in the apartment blocks in the estate

3 yo sneeks out without making a sound and apparently opens a heavy reenforced glass and steel door that adults say is difficult to open

It's very odd. Is there a father present?

....as sometimes the begging parents have been in some way involved, I wouldn't read much into it either way.

Apparently it is now being said that he hasn't been to nursery since before Christmas

Why single this one child out? Is his life more important than others? How many more children have been reported missing in Scotland within the last 24 hours.. I'd love to see that number.

From the bits I've read the father doesn't live in the home & is from Pakistan (which is why I though custody dispute immediately)

What a stupid, ignorant and frankly disgusting thing to say about a missing 3 year old child.

To answer your rhetorical question: I don't know, but it doesn't detract from the fact a helpless child is missing, possibly in grave danger, while his parents go out of their mind with worry.

Something tells me you haven't the balls to say something like that to the parents face.

So missing children shouldn't be reported on?

Sorry I just don't care, it doesn't affect me at all and there is much, much worse happening throughout the world right now.

If you don't care then keep out of the thread.

Is it less important?

When the story first broke yesterday morning I hoped it was the father that had taken Mikaeel rather than a pervert. The lesser of two evils. Now, with the new information about the child not attending playschool so far this year and police Scotland mentioning that his disappearance May be the result of a criminal act, I sadly feel that this story will have a tragic end.

All the apartment blocks have CCTV at each entrance. If the child, or anyone else for that matter had been spotted, the police would either eliminate them from inquiries or, due to the urgent nature, issue appeals. They haven't done this.

I wonder when was the last time Mikeaal was seen by someone other than a family member? I hope my bad feeling is incorrect. Every time I see that sweet little boys photo, I can't help but ask him out loud "where are you?"

It's a valid view.

wdmfapq4zs83hv

The fact that there is CCTV at the entrance would surely rule in or out a lot, did he leave alone or with someone or not at all... The press conferences I have seen they don't seem to want to answer any questions on the CCTV...

I don't see how? I don't care about certain threads, so i don't post in them.

This is an interesting case, and a heartbreaking one for many. My son is 3 years old and I would be out of my mind with worry if he went missing
