What a worthless sperm donor. Too bad he didn't stay missing in action, as he could have saved his daughter a lot of grief. Can't see that this girl suffered for "lacking" UNNAMED DAD in her life--just the opposite.

Father tries to set 23-year-old daughter alight

A man was being held by police on Monday after allegedly trying to set fire to his grown-up daughter in central Paris.
Le Parisien newspaper reported that the man sprayed teargas in the young woman's face and then covered her in petrol on Saturday evening.
The father was apparently annoyed that the woman planned to go out with a group of friends that evening and considered her "too emancipated".
The newspaper quoted a source describing him as a "Muslim fundamentalist."
The 23-year-old daughter has a room in a building in the city's 11th arrondissement, close to the Place de la Bastille.
The 49-year-old man went there at around 11.30pm on Saturday evening and started arguing with her in the hall of the building.
He then attacked her with the teargas and poured petrol over her head and face, after which he pulled out a lighter, causing her to scream.
"She managed to grab the lighter from his hands while passers-by heard her screams," said a source close to the inquiry. "The man quickly made a run for it."
The woman told police her father had been harassing her for several weeks. "She explained he was unhappy that she had a Jewish boyfriend," said the source.
Police caught up with the man on Sunday and are questioning him in connection with attempted murder.
The newspaper reported that the man had only recently reconnected with his daughter, after abandoning her as a child.
He had recently taken her to his native country of Tunisia where he had tried to arrange a marriage for her.
She had resisted, while promising to behave in accordance with his wishes back in Paris.

Dad abducts 6- and 7-year-old sons, then tries to "sell" them back to their mom (Winterthur, Switzerland)
Dad is identified only as ISSAM (which is not his real name) even though he's been convicted. Why is his identity still being protected? As usual, the mother's concerns about a possible abduction were dismissed as "hysterical" by the authorities who are oh-so-sensitive to multicultural shlock, but not old-fashioned misogyny, It's not like we ever hear about children taken to the mideast by their Muslim fathers from their western moms--NEVER HAPPENS. Now sip some more kool-aid, and we'll try that again--with more conviction.

Dad tried to sell children to their own mum

A 34-year-old father of two has been sentenced to eight years in prison after he kidnapped his six and seven-year-old sons, took them to Tunisia, and told their mother to pay him 170,000 francs ($182,000) if she wanted to get her children back.
Janine Schoch, 30, said she had told Swiss authorities on several occasions that she was afraid her husband Issam would follow up on threats to kidnap her children, newspaper Blick reports.
“I did everything in my power to prevent the abduction,” she told Blick. “I reported it to child protection authorities, but they thought I was a hysterical woman who wanted to discriminate against a poor foreigner."
But Schoch, who lives in Winterthur, near Zurich, had her worst fears realized on August 22nd 2010, when Issam [not his real name] took the children and flew them to his home country.
Eight days after the kidnapping, Schoch received an e-mail from Issam. He said she would be permitted to move in with him and be with her children again if she agreed to send him 170,000 francs.
“It was as if he wanted to sell me my own children,” she said.
In October 2010, Issam was arrested during a trip to Morocco and extradited to Switzerland.
"I could not continue living in Switzerland,” the 34-year-old Tunisian told the judge. “I was treated like a dirty dog by my wife, her family, and the migration authorities,” he explained, adding he was not serious about the money he requested. “I am a decent person,” Issam added.
On Thursday, he was jailed by a Wintherthur court on charges of kidnapping, attempted extortion and issuing threats.
Although Issam is already in prison, Schoch has not yet been able to recover her two sons, who live with their grandparents in the Tunisian city of Jendouba. They have custody of the children following a verdict from a Tunisian court.
Still Schoch feels confident that she will soon have her sons back with her in Switzerland.
"When the judge announced the verdict, I felt the children very close to me. I realized it was a reality that I have a chance to get them back,” she told Blick.
Schoch met her husband in 2002 in Turkey, where they both worked as children’s entertainers.
The couple married and move to Frauenfeld, where their first son was born in 2004. A year later, their second child came.
“Then it all started,” Schoch recounted. Her husband began to pray, went to the mosque every Friday and removed his gold wedding ring. He insisted on her adhering to Islamic customs, but she refused.
Schoch said she initiated a separation after he started teaching his children to spit at Christian churches and the Swiss cross.
She hasn't seen her children in a year and a half.
