An 18-month old girl who police mistakenly allowed to be taken by an impostor from a station has been found. Audrey Kessie Nyanor’s mother, Cynthia Boakye, 36, was arrested on Thursday in Southwark, south London, over alleged immigration offences. A woman claiming she was a friend of Ms Boakye went to Walworth police station and took the toddler. The child was found in Harlesden, north London. A woman, 31, has been arrested on suspicion of abduction. A Met spokesman said officers were called at 1400 GMT by a member of the public and that the toddler and the 31-year-old woman were found 55 minutes later on Harlesden High Street. The woman remains in police custody at a west London police station.
