From MISA!Description: MISA and Gregorian Bivolaru case - the unknown story beyond the files Because of the lack of evidence on which the first arrest warrant for sexual relationship with a minor, and the extradition request are based, the Bucharest Tribunal issued on 15 April 2005 a new arrest warrant against Gregorian Bivolaru for the crime of trafficking persons. It is strange that this court issued this warrant since only few months ago, the High Court admitted that the Bucharest Tribunal could not impartially judge the cause of Gregorian Bivolaru and reassigned the case to Sibiu Court. Not to talk about the fact that anyway a person cannot not be arrested twice at the same time… It is also strange that, although the court knew the names of Mr. Bivolaru's lawyers, they found out about the new warrant through media. Moreover, although the authorities knew Mr. Bivolaru was detained in Sweden, the subpoena was send to his residence in Bucharest. It's obvious that the Prosecutors' Office and the Bucharest Tribunal try to cover the serious abuses, so obvious in the first file, by making up new accusations that are pathetically wick. The assimilation of the activity of an artistic intermediate agency, with which Mr. Bivolaru has no connection whatsoever, and the ancient practice of Karma Yoga, with trafficking persons, show the despair and uncertainty of part of the judiciary, guilty of the huge number of abuses presented above. Taking into account that Gandhi himself has practiced and taught his

Adoption agency yet to shift babies

R Gokul,TNN | Jul 3, 2014, 06.33 AM IST

TRICHY: More than two weeks after the Madurai bench of the Madras high court ruled that babies at the Sisters of Cross Society for Education Development (SOCSEAD) in Trichy should be shifted to other registered adoption agencies, the process is yet to begin at the centre.

The high court ruling came as the renewal of recognition for SOCSEAD is not yet complete. The centre is now waiting for the state adoption resource agency (SARA) to shift the babies soon.

In its order dated June 17, the high court bench comprising justices V Ramasubramanian and V M Velumani said, "SOCSEAD does not hold any valid recognition as on date either for keeping the children or for giving them in adoption. So long as they do not have a valid recognition, custody of the children and their attempt to give the children in adoption are only illegal."

Sir Roger Singleton CBE is chair of the Independent Safeguarding Authority and the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund.

He was Chief Executive of Barnardos for 21 years and was awarded a knighthood for his services to children in 2005. He has served on public inquiries into child abuse in children’s homes and is involved in the governance and management of various charities. Sir Roger is also Chairman of Perennial Gardeners Royal Benevolent Society (www.perennial.org.uk). Perennial is one of the UK's oldest charities which was created in 1839 helping horticulturists facing times of difficulty. Sir Roger is also an accredited mediator. Roger Singleton was universally seen as a balanced and liberal spokesman for children's rights. Indeed the only significant public criticisms made of him as a professional for the bulk of his career, prior to 2009, were accusations in 2003 that as chief executive of Barnardo's he had supported emotionally manipulative advertising campaigns used to raise the charity's profile.[1] In this case the UK advertising standards authority found decisively in Singleton's and Barnardo's favour.

By coincidence I had met a while ago a colleague, a human rights specialist, who had been responsible for the Romanian children file for a short while in 1999. I had asked her if she knew what the status of the UNCRC was. She thought it had a strong status, but found it wiser to ask this question to the Commission’s Legal Service.

Today she had indeed sent a note to the Commission’s Legal Service explaining why in her view the Convention should be considered acquis (the EUs legal basis) and requesting their opinion. When I had met her, she had also told me she had analysed law 3/1970. The law that according to De Combret was responsible for the high number of children in institutions. She had concluded it was a rather normal child protection law. It was not law 3/1970 that was the reason so many children were in institutions, but much more complex reasons related to poverty, discrimination of the Roma minority and the attitude towards single motherhood. Law 3/1970 regulated family placement of children without parental care, and as a last option placement in an institution. Her opinion at the time had been wilfully ignored and the Commission had preferred to follow the De Combret-line that because of Ceaucescu’s law so many children were in institutions.

Enrico had sent to the Romania Team, for information, the acquis list of DG Justice. And what did I see under Human Rights acquis, the UNCRC. I had forgotten about the note sent to the Legal Service end of last year, and to which no answer had been received. But this was clear: the UNCRC was acquis.

'Baby racket at least 3 decades old'

Priyanka Dasgupta | TNN | Dec 11, 2016, 08.02 AM IST

KOLKATA: Arun Swanand Dohle was adopted as a month-old baby from Kusumbai Motichand Mahila Seva Gram (KMMSG) in Pune by Belgium-based Michael and Gertrud Dohle.Twenty years later, in 1993, Germany-based Dohle came to Pune to trace his roots. It was in 2010 that he reunited with his biological parents. Having worked extensively on child trafficking and adoption issues, Dohle insists that the Kolkata child-trafficking scandal is at least three decades old and was covered extensively by the international media.

Browsing through old records ahead of a BBC feature on the child trafficking racket in Kolkata, Dohle spoke about international media reports that date back to August 22, 1982."Having worked in this sphere for years, I know that adoption from Kolkata was under the scanner of the international media as early as 1982. The international media had reported on the dubious system of `babies for sale' that was allegedly conducted by International Mission of Hope (IMH) in Kolkata. Incidentally, Sree Krishna Nursing Home, which has been involved in the current scandal, used to be one of the suppliers of babies to IMH," he said.

In an article titled "The short tragic life of Nathan, the baby who was bought for £ 2000", The Mail had reported that Nathan was adopted by an American couple, Ron and Robbie Flanders from the small town of Oakfield, New York. They had paid £2000 to an American adoption agency. Nathan had fallen ill within a few days of arrival to America after a long journey. Controversy had erupted over whether Nathan would have died anyway or already underweight and sick, he was `killed' by being forced to undergo such a long and exhausting jour ney in the unnatural environment of a jet aircraft.Fingers were also pointed at an international airlines for shipping "unwanted Indian children 9,000 miles to America".
