"They kidnapped my daughter and took her to another family! I'm not allowed to see her or have contact! I have no idea where she is!!" she wrote. "I was not there at the time and was not aware of what they had done! It's absolutely outrageous! I have not done anything wrong and neither has my friend who was caring from her!"

Josephine then explained that the Middle Eastern officials threatened to take her friend to jail if they did not give them the child. “They marched her out with police on either side of her and took her away into the night!” she said.

"I'm fighting to get her back!" she wrote before asking for donations. "Unfortunately I can't afford the legal costs. Good lawyers are costly but worth it for my baby to have a chance of happiness and love that she deserves!"
