No, sounds like they think he needs that type of treatment... No clue whether they are right with that or not, but Britain doesn't have that type of therapy, so they were taking him to somewhere that had it.
If I had to guess, it sounds like the parents somehow decided that their child needs this proton therapy, but his doctors disagreed. Parents decided to take him out of the hospital and go for the proton therapy regardless. I have no idea what the laws are over there nor the specifics of this childs condition and treatment option, but doesn't really seem like an arrest-able offense (but I'd guess the docs in Britain think what these parents are doing is likely going to end up really harming/possibly killing their child which is why they took action).
