The cyber criminal gang posted images of the nursery children on the dark web, demanding a ransom from the company.

Kido has 18 sites in London and Windsor, along with 39 nurseries in India, nine in the US and offices in Houston and Singapore.

The Met Police said they “received a referral on Thursday, 25 September, following reports of a ransomware attack on a London-based organisation”.
