LONDON, Jun 18 (Reuters) A four-year-old girl who was seen being bundled into the boot of an estate car four days ago was back with her family today as police questioned two men on suspicion of child cruelty.

The youngster was found ''safe and well'' in the Bracknell area, about 150 miles from the her home in Swansea, south Wales late yesterday night.

Police said a 32-year-old man from Ealing, west London and a 48-year-old from the Bracknell area are to be transferred to Swansea for further questioning over the incident after they were arrested.

A nationwide police hunt was triggered after a passer-by witnessed the partially clothed girl being put in the back of a Hyundai Lantra at a Sainsbury's car park in Swansea, on the evening of June 14.

Although no girl was reported as missing, police had said they were concerned about her welfare.
