Turkey's lost children

Dorian Jones, Istanbul, TurkeyNovember 13, 2014

Over 14,000 children have disappeared in Turkey in the last five years, 1500 remain lost today. Turkish security forces have now created a special unit to track down the children, with fears that organized crime could be behind many of the disappearances. All this is welcome news for Turkey’s Umut or Hope foundation, which was set up 2 decades ago. Dorian Jones reports from Istanbul.
