NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. — Police say a nine-year-old Ontario girl who was the subject of an Amber Alert has been found safe and her mother has been arrested.

The two were last seen on Dec. 1 around 6 p.m. in Welland, Ont., and an Amber Alert was issued the next day.

Niagara regional police say the girl is at the centre of a custody battle and under a court order to be returned to her father, Mohamed Abdel-Mottaleb, an Egyptian citizen.

Police say Haist has been charged with abduction in contravention of a custody order and is scheduled to appear in court Monday.
