Geen straf voor illegale adoptie

LEEUWARDEN - Een 56-jarige politieman en zijn 48-jarige vrouw hebben dinsdag van de rechtbank in Leeuwarden geen straf opgelegd gekregen wegens een illegale adoptie.

Het Openbaar Ministerie (OM) eiste twee weken geleden anderhalf jaar cel, waarvan zes maanden voorwaardelijk, omdat het echtpaar een klein Filipijns meisje illegaal zou hebben geadopteerd vanuit haar thuisland.

De vrouw, zelf van oorsprong Filipijnse, kreeg in 2006 het meisje in haar handen gedrukt bij een bezoek aan de Filipijnen. In overleg met haar Friese echtgenoot besloot ze het kind mee te nemen naar Nederland.

De zaak kwam vorig jaar aan het licht toen de man het meisje in de gemeente Leeuwarden wilde inschrijven. De man zou hebben gedaan alsof hij en zijn vrouw de biologische ouders van het kind waren. Het meisje bleek een Filipijns paspoort te hebben, dus lag een Nederlands ouderschap niet voor de hand.

Zambia / Efforts to Counter Human Trafficking Boosted by European Support

LUSAKA, Zambia, October 2, 2009/African Press Organization (APO)/ — IOM Press Briefing Notes

A joint United Nations programme to counter human trafficking in Zambia which involves IOM, UNICEF and the International Labour Organization (ILO) has been boosted by Euros 1.6 million funding from the European Commission.

The three-year programme is a key part of a national effort to create awareness of the issue in the southern African country and will strengthen the ability of government and non-government agencies to detect and respond to human trafficking in addition to tackling its root causes.

IOM, ILO and UNICEF will focus on preventing human trafficking through mass communication, the training of private and public sector officials on the implementation of anti-trafficking legislation and working with the Zambian police to revise their crime reporting and data management systems.

Ethiopia Program

I am pleased to be the coordinator for overseas families who are adopting in Ethiopia. I work together with Lisa Anderson who has been a CHI coordinator for 8 years. Children's House International is authorized by the Ministry of Justice of the Government of Ethiopia to conduct adoption and humanitarian aid programs there. Single women are welcome to adopt from Ethiopia, couples must be married for at least one year prior to application and one must be at least 30 years old and no more than 45 years older than the child you want to adopt. It takes approximately one to four months to receive a referral after approval of your dossier. The adoption of infant girls may take a little longer. There is a great need for adoption of older children in Ethiopia. It will take approximately two to four months after a referral is accepted before you will be asked to travel to pick up your child.
