The Danish adoption agency DIA has been reported to the police after information has come to light that several children may have been adopted illegally to Denmark.

The adoption center DIA (Danish International Adoption) has been reported to the police because illegal adoptions may have taken place between 1979 and 1995. This happens after a TV 2 documentary which brings information that casts doubt on whether adoptions may have taken place from Chile to Denmark in violation of the rules.

As TV2 ØST could tell on Sunday , Rune Renato Hansen from Tølløse is one of the 111 Chilean children who were adopted to Denmark during the period. In the TV 2 documentary "De stjålne børn" he travels to Chile with his friend Christina Birkemose from Haslev, where they get to reinforce the suspicion that he may have been adopted against his parents' wishes.

In 2018, it emerged that it is believed that up to half of the 20,000 Chilean children who were adopted from Chile in the period between 1970 and 1990 have been stolen.

It is on the basis of information that comes to light in the TV 2 documentary about Danish adoptions from 1979 to 1995 that Christina Birkemose has lodged a report with the North Zealand Police.

Yes, you read that right. Billy and I have become fathers to a beautiful little boy. I will tell you more in this article.

But wouldn't it take a long time?

Exactly – we thought so too. In fact, I totally saw it. After all the hustle and bustle of all the adoption paperwork, writing book 2, the huge renovation and our wedding , I had it in front of me: we're going to rest, sweeten the house and prepare the baby room, book launch in between and hand out a lot of FREE HUGS, and then – who knows – we will get some good news sometime in the autumn.

Well – the good news came. And it came FAST . The last documents had just been sent out when we woke up three days before our wedding with a bizarre email: URGENT – a birthmother selected you as parents for her baby boy .

She was already walking at 38 weeks and could give birth at any time. As you can imagine, we were very happy and yes – we had to take a breather.

Een paar weken geleden zat ik begin van de avond thuis op de bank, lekker lazy een beetje door mijn nieuwsoverzicht van Facebook te scrollen.

De meeste statusupdates van vrienden gingen, zoals gewoonlijk over vakanties, etentjes, sportprestaties of nieuwe liefdes.

Een dag zoals alle andere dus.

Ik was maar half met mijn gedachten bij de Facebookberichten en zat eigenlijk vooral te bedenken of ik een goede smoes kon bedenken om vanavond de Pilates-les over te slaan.

Zodat ik lekker thuis op de bank kon blijven zitten. Netflix in combinatie met Tony Chocolonely, sprak me een stuk meer aan dan mezelf afmatten in de sportschool.

What you need to know:

Due to their alleged involvement in an international adoption scam involving more than 30 children, the United States government levied financial sanctions and travel restrictions on two judges and two lawyers from Uganda in August 2020. According to the US State Department, Judges Moses Mukiibi and Wilson Musalu Musene, as well as attorneys Dorah Mirembe and Patrick Ecobu, helped organise a network that coordinated adoptions of Ugandan children.

The American government made these accusations and imposed penalties a few years ago. Why are you speaking right now?

I am a retired judge. Being outside judicial service, I do not enjoy automatic departmental public relations protection. I have been forced to break silence to dispel some lies peddled by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the US Department of State. On August 17, 2020, those two offices published notes intended to explain and provide justification for the action of the Deputy Secretary of the Treasury (Justin G. Muzinich).

He said, and I quote: “Deceiving innocent Ugandan families into giving up their children for suffering. This corrupt scam deliberately exploited the good faith of Ugandans.” It was also stated that unsuspecting or unwitting prospective parents would arrive in Uganda to adopt to take the children back to America.

After her adoption at the age of 2.5, Sam (40, but according to the law 41 years old) ended up in an unsafe family situation in the Netherlands. She was abused by her adoptive father and felt little warmth with her adoptive mother. She also found out that her adoption papers had been tampered with. 'I was just sold.'

Second choice

“I don't remember much of my first two years of life. I was born in Sri Lanka in 1981 and was adopted in 1984 by my Dutch adoptive parents. According to them, my biological mother had given me up because she could no longer take care of me. My adoptive parents also told me that they would actually adopt another girl from Indonesia,” says Sam in Grazia's Winterboek . “They had everything ready for her and suddenly that adoption was cancelled. Finally they came to me. To me, that always felt like I was second choice. And to be honest, I've never really felt comfortable at home.”

“Even at school I didn't feel at home. Because I got all the clothes from my adoptive brothers and my adoptive mother cut my hair short, I looked like a boy. I was bullied a lot about that. Meanwhile, I was abused by my adoptive father from the age of six. This developed very gradually.”

biological family

Dutch nun (89) accused of baby robbery: she told mothers that their child was stillborn.

CHILI

An 89-year-old Dutch nun is accused of baby theft and illegal adoption from Chile. In the 1970s and 1980s, she would have taken children without permission from the mothers for adoption in the Netherlands. Some Chilean adoptees and mothers have filed a report in recent years.

September 1979. An underage mother is admitted to the hospital in Paillaco, southern Chile, with her newborn son. She gave birth at home but lost a lot of blood. When the mother wants to breastfeed the next day, a Dutch nun and a Chilean social worker tell her that her baby has died. She can't see him anymore, his little body is already gone.

The 'deceased' baby ? Alejandro Quezada ? is, in fact, very much alive. He is now 43 years old and lives near Amsterdam. “My mother hated that she wasn't even allowed to take me to say goodbye. Because she started screaming, they drugged her. She came to three days later."

Patna (Bihar) [India], December 2 (ANI): ‘There are angels in human shape’ — so goes the phrase on the lips of everyone who received the heartwarming news about Arjit, an orphan boy from Patna.

Raised on Patna’s streets, the eight-year-old is all set board a transcontinental flight to the United States to shart a new chapter of his life.

The specially-abled orphan was found abandoned on the streets amid biting cold in Patna’s Bihta, three years ago. However, the boy is about to turn a corner in his young life as he has been adopted by a doctor couple in the US.

It is understood that the couple will fly down to Patna and head back with an adopted son, having already completed all the necessary paperwork.

According to sources, the couple will fund his medical treatment in the US.
