I am an extended family member of the father, who does not buy his story.
He claims the child was abandoned to him by the mother.
I have no experience with these circumstances, so please bear with me.
Thanks.

This fully answers my question in regards to him taking the child out of the country.
He is not allowed to contact the mother because of criminal charges against him.
How he was even allowed to have custody of this child is beyond my comprehension.
Something just does not seem right, IMO.
And the reason I asked the original question is because I suspect he might be a flight risk, already addressed in another thread.

I did not know if it was the task of the court or an atty, due to my lack of knowledge on such matters. He had a family law atty on the case.
I did not intend to imply that the dad knows the mother's current location.
The last known location was when she handed the child over to him via a family member.
Then, she allegedly moved...address unknown.
I am implying that the court knows where she is, because she is a witness for the prosecution in the dad's criminal case.
