Read into that what you will.
I read that a judge did their job and delivered a judgement in the best interests of the child, based on knowing the full facts of the case and not just a few headlines."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

As I said earlier in the post this is just a one off which got picked up by the media.
As long as the child is okay that's all that really matters.Comment

BTW, the original picture is a stock photo from Gettyimages which you'll find tagged with happy family Dubai.

And the aftermath
Times distorted Muslim foster case, regulator finds - BBC News
The press regulator has ruled the Times "distorted" its coverage of a five-year-old Christian girl who was placed with Muslim foster carers.
The newspaper ran three front-page stories in August 2017 after the girl was removed from her mother's care by Tower Hamlets council in east London.
It said foster carers stopped her eating bacon, confused her by speaking Arabic, and removed a crucifix.
A Times executive acknowledged the story caused "enormous offence"."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
