Norwegian police said Wednesday they had found two young girls safe and sound a day after they were brutally kidnapped and had arrested six suspects, including a man who could be their father. The girls of Iraqi origin aged one and three, who were in the care of the state, were kidnapped by two masked men during a meeting with their mother held at a community association under the supervision of social services. The men were armed with an electro-shock gun and threatened to unleash teargas. They were found a little over 24 hours later in a flat in southeastern Norway and the occupant was arrested, police official Linn Hilde Fosso told AFP. Five other people, many of them of Iraqi origin, were also arrested in what seems to be a family dispute. \"We have good reasons to believe that the father of the children is among them,\" Fosso said. The girls were handed back to social services.
