Mikaeel Kular: A Timeline Of Events
Updated: 1:07pm UK, Monday 20 January 2014
The disappearance of three-year-old Mikaeel Kular, from Edinburgh, sparked a major police investgation and search. Here is a timeline of events leading to the discovery of the three-year-old's body:
Thursday, January 16
:: 0900: Police Scotland launch a search for Mikaeel after his mother reports him missing. She tells police she last saw him when she put him to bed at around 9pm the night before, but when she went to wake him at around 7.15am, he was not in his bedroom at their home in Ferry Gait Crescent.
:: 1020: Police release a photograph of the missing boy. He is described as being of Asian appearance and possibly wearing a beige hooded jacket, brown Clarks' shoes and pyjamas.
:: 1055: Police Scotland superintendent Liz McAinsh tells reporters there is no evidence to suggest "criminality" at this stage, but officers are "keeping an open mind". One of the possibilities is he left his home of his own accord, and so local residents are urged to look in their own homes, gardens, sheds, parks and lock-ups. The boy's mother is said to be "distraught".
:: 1320: Police activity is reported in the Waterfront Gait area of the city and a man is detained by police. It is not connected to the search for Mikaeel.
:: 1430: Coastguard and lifeboat teams search the shoreline in the Cramond and Drylaw area. Local residents and volunteers join the search for the missing boy, with a police helicopter already in action and specialists with sniffer dogs and mountain rescue teams deployed on the ground. Forensic teams continue to examine his home.
:: 1600: Police Scotland issue a Child Rescue Alert which is usually reserved for abduction and kidnap cases and supported by all police forces across the UK. A dedicated hotline - 0300 200 0200 - is also set up.
:: 1630: Concerns grow for the youngster who Supt McAinsh says may be out wandering the streets "cold, hungry and disorientated" as darkness falls and the temperature drops. Police issue an updated description of Mikaeel, saying that he may also be wearing black gloves with multi-coloured fingers, dark navy blue jogging bottom and a grey pyjama top with an embroidered turquoise dinosaur on the chest. He also has a faded scar on the bridge of his nose and a sore on the left hand side of his mouth.
:: 2100: Police Scotland release a new image of Mikaeel which shows him in the beige jacket he is believed to have been wearing when he disappeared. The search continues through the night.
Friday January 17
:: 0700: Supt McAinsh makes a fresh appeal for help to find the child and says there has been a "fantastic" response from the public with some 150 calls made to the hotline.
:: 1000: Hundreds of people gather at the North Neighbourhood Centre in West Pilton Gardens to help search for Mikaeel.
:: 1030: A missing person appeal for Mikaeel is published on digital billboards across the UK, with adverts adverts shown in areas such as train stations and shopping centres.
:: 1345: A "potential sighting" at 8.30am on Thursday in West Pilton Gardens, Edinburgh, is investigated. The child matches Mikaeel's description, in all but the fact that he is wearing a hat, police say. But it is not confirmed as the missing boy. Volunteers including firefighters and mothers pushing prams take part in a search of the shore at Cramond, in north-west Edinburgh.
:: 1745: Assistant Chief Constable Malcolm Graham says there have been no confirmed sightings of Mikaeel and police are exploring whether his disappearance may be the result of a "criminal act", but adds officers are also still looking at whether he could have left his home of his own accord. He says all immediate family members have been traced and spoken to by police, and a timeline of Mikaeel's movements before his disappearance established. Supt McAinsh reveals Mikaeel has not been at nursery since the Christmas break because he has been ill.
:: 2030: Police thank the more than 200 volunteers who helped during the day, and the search continues into the night.
Saturday January 18:
:: 0110: Police convene a sudden news conference and reveal that a body believed to be that of Mikaeel was found shortly before midnight in Fife. Mr Graham confirms that a person has been detained in connection with the death and Mikaeel's family informed.
:: 2300: Mr Graham confirms a 33-year-old woman has been arrested and charged in connection with Mikaeel's death and will appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday, January 20.
