A WOMAN will appear in court tomorrow (Mon, Apr 6) after being arrested on suspicion of child abduction.

The woman, aged 30, has been charged with attempting to take away a child without lawful authority as well as passport offences.

She was arrested on Thursday last week, April 2, after a three-year-old girl was reported missing from Harrogate the previous day.

The child involved was said to be safe and well and now being cared for by her father.
