💨 Abstract
A nine-year-old boy was rescued after being trapped in his father's van for two years, malnourished and without proper sanitation. Neighbors heard sounds but were told it was a cat. The father, 43, claimed he did this to protect his son from his partner, who wanted to send him to a psychiatric hospital. The boy was found naked, covered in trash, and unable to walk.
