The 3-year-old Georgia boy whose remains were found on a compound in New Mexico has finally been laid to rest.
The Willie Watkins Funeral Home tells 11Alive that Abdul-Ghani Wahhaj's funeral was held at 11 a.m. Thursday morning with his burial immediately following.
His remains were flown out of Albuquerque Wednesday and arrived in Atlanta that night. 11Alive's captured exclusive video of the Hearse at the airport.
Authorities arrested Abdul-Ghani's father, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, along with four others earlier this month during a raid on the compound. Eleven children were found in what officials described as "third-world" living conditions. They are all facing child abuse charges.
Abdul-Ghani's mother reported him missing in December 2017 after he and his father didn't return from a trip to the park. His mother filed for a divorce from Siraj December 21, a few weeks after she reported her son missing.

Abdul-Ghani's remains were found on his 4th birthday, August 6.
The Clayton County Sheriff's Office notified the Taos County Jail to release their hold on Siraj, because they cannot prove a felony offense occurred in Clayton County.
Warrants for Siraj's arrest claimed he took his son to perform an exorcism on the child and was denying Abdul-Ghani Wahhaj's medications.
