Judge: Beds Gran "Stupid" Over Child Welfare

A 53 year-old Bedfordshire gran, who refused to help social workers trying to find her 3 year-old grandchild has been held in prison for two days.

Alison Moutiq who lives in the Bedford area, was arrested on Sunday and kept in custody - ahead of appearing at the High Court today.

The case centres on social workers who'd become concerned about her granddaughter, who we can't name for legal reasons,  and a judge who said anyone with information about where she was must provide it - and they'd be in contempt of court if not.
