Amina and Belel Kandil
Labor Day weekend in 2014 was supposed to mean a short trip to Canada for Amina and Belel Kandil with their father, Ahmed, before the celebration of Amina's 11th birthday on Monday, September 1 and the start of school on the following day. However, as the weekend came to a close, Amina and Belel's mother--Rebecca Downey-- found that her phone calls were going unanswered. Her daughter's birthday passed and school began but her ex-husband and her children didn't return. In fact, they didn't even go to Canada. And that was just the beginning of Ahmed's plan.
