The fate of a sickly Kenyan child taken away from his American guardians on April 5 remains unknown. The messages, revealed by a government officer, showed that the DCI ordered the operation after the Children Welfare Society of Kenya claimed that the child’s guardianship was illegal. On Monday the Mazzoncinis filed a fresh habeas corpus application in the Nairobi Children’s Court after realising that the first application was in the wrong court. James Gitau Singh, the new lawyer for the Mazzoncinis, told the Star yesterday that the search for the missing child has so far been unsuccessful. A top official from the Children Welfare Society last week told the Star they wanted the legal guardianship reviewed.
