Body of boy found at makeshift New Mexico compound returned to Georgia

The body of a boy, whose remains were discovered at a New Mexico compound, was flown to Georgia.

KOB-TV reports the casket of Abdul-Ghani Wahhaj, who was reported missing in December, was on board a flight Wednesday night from Albuquerque to Atlanta.

Authorities say his father, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, says he was going to take Abdul-Ghani to the park, but never returned. Prosecutors say Siraj Ibn Wahhaj instead brought Abdul-Ghani to live on a compound in Taos County, New Mexico.

Siraj Ibn Wahhaj and four other adults were arrested after a raid on the compound on Aug. 3.

The adults were charged with child abuse because there were 11 children found living in squalor conditions.

More charges could be filed after the office of the medical investigator determines how Abdul-Ghani died.
