Chad 'kidnappers' move to capital

A group of 16 Europeans who were being held in east Chad in connection with child kidnapping allegations have been flown to the capital, N'Djamena.
They were detained last week in Abeche as they tried to fly to France more than 100 children they claimed were orphans from Sudan's Darfur region.

However, aid agencies have said 91 of them came from a home with at least one adult considered a parent figure.

The transfer took place after a court ruled N'Djamena should handle the case.

Six workers for Zoe's Ark, the French charity behind the flight, were charged with kidnapping on Tuesday and three French journalists and seven Spanish air crew were charged as accomplices.

If they are found guilty, the main accused will face between five and 20 years in prison with hard labour.
