Jeffrey Salko, jise Jeffrey Lee aur Kang Shik Lee ke naam se bhi jaana jaata hai, ek vyakti hai jo apne bete, Kobe Lee, ke aparahan ke liye prasiddh hai. Yeh ghatna 2007 mein Queens, New York mein hui thi, jab Salko ne Kobe ko milne ke dauraan apne paas rakha aur use South Korea le gaya. Yeh ek anyaayik aur bhayankar ghatna thi jo ek maa, Tiffany Rubin, ke liye dukh aur chinta ka kaaran bani.
August 2007 mein, Salko ne Kobe ko wapas dene se inkaar kar diya, jiske baad Rubin ne apne bete ko dhoondhne ki koshish shuru ki. Jab unhone pata lagaya ki Salko Kobe ko lekar South Korea chala gaya hai, tab unhone FBI aur anya agencies se madad maangi. FBI ne September 2007 mein Salko ke khilaf ek giraftari warrant jari kiya, lekin uska suraag lagana mushkil ho raha tha.
Rubin ne American Association For Lost Children (AAFLC) ke sath milkar South Korea tak ka safar kiya. Unhone disguise apnaya aur March 2008 mein apne bete ko wapas lekar aayi. Yeh ek bahut hi romanchak aur himmat bhari kahani thi jo duniya ke liye prerna ka kaaran bani. Is ghatna par 2011 mein ek film bhi bani, “Taken From Me: The Tiffany Rubin Story,” jisme Taraji P. Henson ne Rubin ka kirdar nibhaya.
Kobe ke wapas aane ke baad bhi Salko ne usse sampark karne ki koshish ki, lekin Rubin ne ise najarandaz kiya. 2008 mein, Salko Guam mein giraftar ho gaya jab usne wapas America aane ki koshish ki. Usne aparahan ka dosh sweekar kiya aur West Virginia ki ek jail mein saja kaati. 2010 mein use riha kiya gaya, lekin uspar Kobe se 18 saal tak sampark na karne ki pabandi thi.
Aaj, Kobe Lee ek jawaan hai aur Queens, New York mein apni maa ke sath rehta hai. Wah college ki padhai kar raha hai aur creative writing mein ruchi rakhta hai. Uska apne pita se koi sambandh nahi hai, aur ve donon lagbhag sampark mein nahi hain.
Jeffrey Salko ke vartaman sthiti ki koi spasht jankari nahi hai. 2010 ke baad se, uske baare mein koi naye record ya khabrein saamne nahi aayi hain. Yeh to spasht hai ki uska jeevan ab ek rahasya bana hua hai, aur uski kahani abhi bhi logon ke beech ek charcha ka vishay hai.
