Disappearance of Dominik Takács

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dominik Takács was a two year-old Hungarian boy who was reported missing on August 3, 2007 by his mother, in the Danube's Margaret Island in central Budapest. The father told the police that his son might have been kidnapped in an act of revenge. Pictures of the boy dominated Hungarian media for several weeks. On October 12, 2007, the mother admitted that her child had been attacked by their own dogs and she and Dominik's father buried the body in a field some 1.5 km from the family's home, about 50 km southeast of Budapest. Subsequently, the Hungarian police discovered the body of the two year-old boy, who in August 2007 had been killed by his parents' dogs bred for fighting.[1][2][3][4]
