The recently closed adoption agency Danish International Adoption bent the rules to avoid breaking the convention and ended up separating two siblings. "An assault", assess experts
A pair of siblings only had each other, now they have to grow up in separate countries with a thousand kilometers between them.
The separation could possibly have been avoided. For many months, Danwatch has investigated what has been going on behind the walls of Denmark's only adoption agency, Danish International Adoption (DIA), which recently closed after several problematic cases.
Today we can now reveal how, within the last few years, DIA has delayed an adoption, so that the two siblings today have to live a life separately.
An internal DIA email correspondence in Danwatch's possession shows that the DIA did not work to find a solution to keep the children together after they were informed that the children were to be separated.
