Daily Star: CELLAR KIDS ‘MOVE’ TO UK — THE Austrian cellar family want to start a new life in Britain. By Steve Hughes
Elisabeth Fritzl and the three children believe Brits are sympathetic to them.
It is also unlikely they will choose a hot country because of their sensitive skin and eyes.
[...]
Elisabeth and the three basement kids – Kerstin, 19, Stefan, 18, and Felix, six – have been in a secure clinic as they recover from their ordeal.
The three youngsters had never seen daylight until last month and doctors say they will have to protect their pale skin and sensitive eyes for the rest of their lives.
Therapists have also revealed the children communicate using animal-like grunt noises.
But despite making good progress, the cellar family have been hounded by the Austrian media and have become “virtual prisoners” again in the clinic.
Security has been stepped up at the hospital in Amstetten following clashes involving journalists and photographers.
Their lawyer Christoph Herbert said: “They are being hunted by the media. The family cannot live a normal life in Austria, therefore they’ll probably have to move to a nearby country, close enough to go home yet far enough to not be recognised.”
The amount of damage Josef Fritzl has done is nearly incomprehensible. Does any punishment exist for him?
