FALSE CHILDHOOD FRIENDS

Do the perpetrators and their sympathizers network? Is there a Kinderfreunde connection from the crèches to the lecture halls? The EMMA report reveals surprising cross-connections between pedophile associations and child protection organizations. And: A much-cited lady is part of the men's party.

Mark Morgan is a likeable young man. Everyone who knows him thinks so. The American educator has just turned 30 when he sets up a home for neglected street urchins in the Thai capital: 'The Bangkok Children's Shelter'. International aid organizations invest donations in the exemplary project. A year later, wealthy American Howard Ruff pays a visit to the boys and their benefactor. The millionaire finds the educator, whom the children affectionately call "Poh Mark" (Papa Mark), "moving and heartwarming." He promises to support the good deed financially.

Ruff has already filled out the check for $67,000 when he receives disturbing news: the child friend Morgan is listed as a "child molester" by the American police. He had sexually abused his underage charges in a psychiatric hospital. And: In Mexico he was caught shooting child porn. Mark Morgan is arrested in Bangkok. The kids he picked off the streets can finally tell the truth: "We were raped by Papa Mark." And: "from uncles from America". The educator's homes were actually brothels for pedophile sex tourists.

Rainer M. is also a likeable man. The 34-year-old educator from Münsterland used to work in two Montessori children's homes in Borken and Coesfeld. The charming young man with the long hair "was considered someone who got things going": "Walks in the woods with the children. Catching tadpoles and kicking" ( Die Zeit ). Moms and dads liked him, some were friends with him.

Support center for adoption questions

Support center for adoption questions

From one of our reporters UTRECHT - Since yesterday, anyone who has questions about his or her origin can contact the Roots Support Center in Utrecht. All information provided there to adopted children, their foster parents and other interested parties is free of charge.

May 13, 1998, 00:00

75 volunteers are deployed at the Roots Support Center at 161 Oudegracht. The aim is for the support center to become 'an umbrella for adoptive countries'. Many adopted children or adoptive families still have to undertake a veritable quest to obtain information. Roots hopes that one phone call to the support center (030-2232000) will be enough to effectively search further.

Ton van der Haar, one of the founders of Roots: “An adoptee who wants to look for fellow sufferers or for his past, writes to the TV program Spoorloos, then to the Werkverband Adoptie Afterzorg, then to Wereldkinderen, ISS, and so on. .”

Prime accused in child adoption racket granted bail

Anita Sen, prime accused in the child adoption racket that rocked Andhra Pradesh three months ago, was released on bail on Tuesday evening after spending 67 days in prison.

Ninth Metropolitan Magistrate N Anand Rao granted bail to Anita Sen on furnishing Rs 25,000 and two sureties and directed her to cooperate with the state's Criminal Investigation Department as and when required.

Fifty-four-year-old Anita Sen is the wife of Additional Director-General of Police Swaranjit Sen and the executive director of Precious Moments, an unrecognised adoption home.

After the racket was exposed, Anita was on the run for several weeks before surrendering in the ninth metropolitan magistrate's court on May 19.

The CID had filed a charge sheet against eight accused, including Anita Sen and her associate Sarita, on July 17.
