French police seek conspiracy theorist over kidnapping of girl

Remy Daillet-Wiedemann is claimed to have planned abduction with child's mother

French police have issued an international arrest warrant for a far-right conspiracy theorist living in Malaysia, who they allege helped organise the abduction of an eight-year-old girl in eastern France at the request of her mother.

In a case that has prompted concern about the spread of QAnon and survivalist ideas in France, police said they sought the arrest of a former local politician who has called in online videos for a popular coup d'etat".
