据当地检察官透露，本周一名9岁男孩被救出，他自2024年以来一直被锁在父亲的厢式货车内，位于法国东部。孩子已被送医治疗，其父亲已被拘留。
周六公布的检察官尼古拉·海茨的声明显示，周一，一名邻居向警方举报称，在瑞士和德国边境附近的哈根巴赫村的一辆货车里传出“儿童的声音”。
声明称，警方破门后发现一名儿童“呈胎儿姿势蜷缩着，赤身裸体，盖着毯子，躺在一堆垃圾上，靠近排泄物处”。声明还提到，这名儿童营养不良，因长期保持坐姿已无法行走。
检察官表示，这名43岁的男孩父亲告诉调查人员，他于2024年11月将孩子锁进货车“以保护他”，因为孩子的母亲，也就是父亲的伴侣，现年37岁，曾想将男孩送进精神病院。当时男孩年仅7岁。
检察官称，没有医疗记录显示这名男孩在失踪前有任何精神问题，且他在校成绩优异。
据检察官透露，男孩告诉调查人员，他和父亲的伴侣“相处非常困难”，并认为父亲“别无选择”只能将他锁起来。男孩称自己自2024年以来就没洗过澡。
据哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的合作机构英国广播公司援引《巴黎人报》报道，男孩告诉警方，父亲每天给他送两次食物并留下水。
报道补充称，男孩只能用塑料瓶排尿、用垃圾袋排便，他上一次洗澡是在2024年底。
这名父亲已被初步指控犯有绑架等罪名，并被羁押。检察官表示，男孩的母亲否认知晓孩子被关在货车里，她已被初步指控包括未协助处于危险中的未成年人在内的多项罪名，并在司法监督下获释。
男孩12岁的姐姐以及父亲伴侣的10岁女儿已被交由社会服务机构照料。
检察官办公室正在调查是否有其他人知晓这名被关押的男孩。朋友和家人告诉调查人员，他们以为男孩在一家精神病院。检察官办公室称，老师们被告知男孩已转学到另一所学校。
当局未公布受害者及家属的姓名。
美联社记者联系到的该村居民周六对这起事件表示震惊，称他们不知道男孩的下落，但不愿透露细节。
一些邻居告诉英国广播公司，他们偶尔会听到货车内部传出声响，但被告知是猫的声音。
检察官表示，在进一步调查结束前，他不会向美联社透露更多细节。
Boy in France kept in locked utility van for nearly 2 years before being rescued this week

A 9-year-old boy was rescued this week after living locked in his father’s utility van in eastern France since 2024, according to the local prosecutor. The child has been hospitalized, and his father was detained.
Police were alerted by a neighbor to “sounds of a child” coming from a van on Monday in the village of Hagenbach near the borders of Switzerland and Germany, according to a statement from Prosecutor Nicolas Heitz provided Saturday.
After forcing the van open, they found a child “lying in a fetal position, naked, covered by a blanket on top of a mound of trash and near excrement,” the statement said. The child was malnourished and could no longer walk, because he had been in a seated position for so long, the statement said.

The boy’s father, 43, told investigators he put the child in the truck in November 2024 “to protect him,” because his partner, 37, wanted to send the boy to a psychiatric hospital, the prosecutor said. The boy was 7 at the time.
The prosecutor said there was no medical record indicating the boy had any psychiatric problems before he disappeared, and the boy had good grades in school.
The boy told investigators he had “big difficulties” with his father’s partner, and thought his father “had no choice” but to lock him up, according to the prosecutor. He said he hadn’t showered since 2024.
The boy told police his dad brought him food twice a day and left him water, CBS News partner BBC News reported, citing Le Parisien newspaper.
He said he had to urinate in plastic bottles and defecate in bin bags, the outlet added, and the last time he had a shower was late 2024.

The father was handed preliminary kidnapping and other charges and kept in custody. His partner denied knowledge that the boy was in the van, according to the prosecutor. She was handed preliminary charges, including failure to help a minor in danger, and released under judicial supervision.
The boy’s 12-year-old sister and the 10-year-old daughter of his father’s partner were put in the care of social services.
The prosecutor’s office is investigating whether others were aware of the locked-up boy. Friends and family told investigators they thought the boy was in a psychiatric institution. His teachers were told he had transferred to a different school, according to the prosecutor’s office.
Authorities did not release the names of the victim or family members.
Residents of the village reached by The Associated Press expressed shock Saturday at what happened and said they were unaware of the boy’s whereabouts, but didn’t want to discuss details.
Some neighbors told the BBC they occasionally heard noises from inside the van, but were told it was a cat.
The prosecutor declined to comment further to AP pending further investigation.
