Aziz first went missing on November 27, 2017, from his home in Atlanta, Georgia.
Law enforcement believed his mother, Rabia Khalid, was the one who kidnapped the young child, taking him as she fled the state with her husband Elliot Blake Bourgeois.
Khalid failed to show up for her custody hearing that day in Atlanta, leading the US Marshals Service to issue a warrant for the mother’s arrest.
Authorities reported that Khalid allegedly pulled Aziz out of elementary school the Friday before Thanksgiving.
As revealed in Netflix’s Unsolved Mysteries, Khalid and her husband abandoned the Atlanta apartment they owned and haven’t been seen in public until now.
On February 23, 2025, police responded to a Colorado homeowner who reported suspicious activity they saw on their vacant home’s security camera, local Fox affiliate KDVR reported.
When police arrived at the active burglary, they noticed two children sitting in a car parked in the driveway as the two suspects exited the home.
The suspects claimed they worked with the realtor selling the home, but the sheriff’s office said the officers noticed differences in the two trespassers’ stories.
After four hours of questioning, the deputies identified the suspects as 40-year-old Rabia Khalid and 42-year-old Elliot Blake Bourgeois.
“Their ability to recognize the discrepancies in the suspects’ story and to follow the leads, even when the situation seemed unclear, ultimately led to the safe recovery of a child who had been missing for seven long years,” Douglas County Sheriff Darren Weekly told KDVR.
“I couldn’t be prouder of the work done by our team; this case highlights the commitment of our officers to seek justice and protect the most vulnerable. It’s a reminder of the incredible difference our work makes in the lives of those we serve.”
