A woman who married a ragdoll has been left absolutely heartbroken and devastated after a thief kidnapped her toy son, demanding £130,000 ransom.
Meirivone Rocha Moraes, 37, is in a relationship with Marcelo, a life-sized rag doll and the lovers have three rag doll children - two-year-old son Marcelinho and newborn twin daughters Marcela and Emilia.
But Meirivone has now revealed that Marcelinho was kidnapped, and the thieves are requesting £136,715 (R$1M) to get him back.
Marcelinho was kidnapped and it is causing great sadness in our family, Meirivone, from Brazil, said.
They asked for a million, but I said: "Im not rich. I dont even have enough to eat, and you want that much money from me".

We dont know what to do anymore.
We are posting photos all over the city.
She claims that the kidnappers even sent them an anonymous letter made with cut-outs from magazines.
The distressed mother said: We are doing what we can.
We dont know why, but when we went to the police, the police laughed in my face.
It is so disrespectful.
How could you ever make jokes about the disappearance of a child who is only two years old?

Marcelinho had a lot of fun with his relatives.
There were lots of games and music and popcorn, hot dogs, cake, sweets, soda, and even souvenirs.
Meirivone says she just wants him home.

She said: The neighbors told us that a person was here all morning with a red striped bag.
Then, my Marcelinho disappeared.
Marcelo thinks he was kidnapped when he went to buy bread.
When he arrived there was no one else here at home.
And the door was open.
I am very worried, we are desperate.
