The AFP would like to thank the community for their efforts in helping to locate missing 2-year-old child Hoang Vinh Le.

The toddler was located in Sydney in late September after a report from a member of the public. He is safe and well and has been reunited with his grandmother.

The AFP, along with New South Wales Police Force, have been looking into the circumstances surrounding his disappearance and his eventual recovery. Further enquiries in his whereabouts during this time are ongoing.

A Section 121 Publication Order under the Family Law Act 1975 has been made by the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia allowing the AFP, NSW Police and one particular media outlet to publish this information.

No further reporting, in which the parties and child are identified, is permitted under these orders.
