Abducted child found on Kos?

Police believe a little girl found on Kos on Wednesday is Denise Pipitone, who was abducted from outside her home in Sicily four years ago at the age of 4.

Officers visited the island following a tip-off from Interpol, alerted by an Italian woman who visited the island at the end of last month and saw a little girl selling bracelets who resembled Pipitone.

On Wednesday, police spotted the girl on the island in the company of a 30-year-old Roma woman, who was arrested. The woman claimed to be the girl's mother even though the girl spoke only Italian and the woman only broken Greek.

A DNA examination of an eight-year-old girl from the island of Kos, for which there were suspicions that she might have been little Denise Pipitone, who had gone missing in Sicily on September 1, 2004, was completed on Friday afternoon.

According to an announcement by the police, the examination of the genetical material showed that hereditary compatibility exists between the girl and the Albanian woman accompanying her and, therefore, they are mother and daughter.
