Serena, Rosa Cruz' daughter, was found in 2013 inside the boot of her car when she was two years old.

She had been kept in the basement of her home and in the car boot by her mother for two years.

Rosa Cruz is to sleep in jail on Friday night and can appeal against the judgment order by a court in Corrèze, France.

The public ministry had asked for an eight-year sentence for the Portuguese citizen this morning.
