Australian father handcuffed for refusing son’s chemo. Police seize teen after family asks for 24 hours to weigh options

‘ His son is fighting a rare blood cancer, which was only recently diagnosed, but this father says he feels like the teenager was kidnapped after doctors said he needed chemotherapy.

They said, ‘We’re taking the boy to Perth, we’re flying him right now to hospital’, and we felt very pressurised,” the father claimed in an interview with 9News.
“I said, ‘We need 24 hours just to review our options, there’s a few key people to speak to’.”
The father claimed they did not get that time and police eventually arrived at their home

The father was handcuffed and his teenager taken to Perth Children’s Hospital for treatment for acute myleoid leukemia.‘
