Several safeguards that may have prevented at least 12 Lev Tahor children from leaving the country were not in place despite a clear flight risk based on the group\u2019s history. . . .

A compelling story that raises essential questions about the limits of reunion and redemption, but the parallel universe of Uppal\u2019s play doesn\u2019t get around to any of these until it\u2019s too late, eschewing narrative clarity for non-linear fantasy, reported The Globe and Mail<\/i> March 7.
