Spanish authorities on Saturday, December 30, said they had arrested a French couple earlier in December for planning to "sacrifice" in the Sahara their 5-year-old son, who they believed to be "possessed."

The couple was arrested on December 21 in the southern Spanish port of Algeciras, as the family was about to board a ferry to the Moroccan city of Tangiers.

The Guardia Civil police force said in a statement they had arrested a "couple of French origin" who "intended to murder their 5-year-old son in the Sahara, believing him to be possessed."

Both parents had "psychiatric problems" and were the subject of a European arrest warrant for the abduction of a minor, the Guardia Civil added. The pair have been remanded in custody by a judge in Spain.

The child is in good health and has been sent to a reception center for minors in Spain before being returned to France.
