Onderzoek naar illegale adopties rijt oude wonden open in Tuitjenhorn

Tientallen Nederlandse stellen adopteerden begin jaren 80 illegaal een baby uit Brazilië. Een opvallend groot deel kwam uit het dorp Tuitjenhorn. Was het een wanhoopsdaad, edele daad of misdaad?

Justitie stopte illegale adoptie in doofpot

Justitie heeft in de jaren 80 illegale adopties uit Brazilië verzwegen. In een strafrechtelijk onderzoek bleven diplomaten, tussenpersonen en malafide bemiddelingsbureaus buiten schot. Het besluit om 42 echtparen niet te vervolgen werd door de top bewust stilgehouden.

Uit onderzoek van deze krant blijkt dat het ministerie van Justitie en het Openbaar Ministerie in de jaren 80 worstelden met het stijgende aantal illegale adopties. Naar buiten verkondigden ze hard op te treden tegen ouders en bemiddelaars, maar achter de schermen lieten ze hen ongemoeid.

FORTY Australians, including the owners of a Bundaberg McDonalds, have been deceived into contributing more than $480,000 to a charity scam that pushed children into a fake orphanage.

The Australians were fooled into thinking they were supporting Nepalese orphans when, in fact, the kids were not orphans at all.

The Nepalese charity responsible had actually likewise deceived Australian charity Forget Me Not into supporting the trigger by wrongly declaring the kids had actually lost both of their parents. The Nepalese charity even falsified the parents’ death certificates to reveal to the Australian operation these were genuine orphans.

The non-government organisation, Malai Na Birisu Bal Griha, employed child traffickers who controlled illiterate moms and dads in poor areas of Nepal and took their girls away from them to reside in a Kathmandu orphanage funded completely by Australian donations.

The Bombay High Court recently allowed a surrogate mother to abort her 24-week foetus, as the foetus had numerous heart abnormalities and was expected to require multiple surgeries if born. The petitioner had entered into an agreement with a Pune-based couple, for carrying their baby. She had, however, approached the court after a routine check-up and screening had revealed serious defects in the heart of the foetus. The court had then referred her matter to a medical board, consisting of doctors from the BJ Medical College and Sassoon General Hospital, Pune. This board had confirmed that the foetus indeed had several cardiac abnormalities. Having perused this report, Justice Bharati H. Dangre had thereafter sought permission from the intended parents, in view of the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case. "It is informed by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the team of doctors who examined the surrogate mother is made aware of the risk involved and the procedure to be complied with. However, this is a peculiar case where the petitioners before the Court are also joined by the intended parent, since the child is to be conceived by applying the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). "In such circumstances, it would be appropriate to obtain the consent of the intended parents and they are appraised of the report which is tendered today," the court had directed. During the next hearing, the intended father was present in court, and consented to the abortion in view of the medical report. Allowing the petition, the court then ruled, "In such circumstances, since the expert team of doctors comprising the Heads of various departments have opined that there are multiple cardiac complication in the baby and that the pregnancy be terminated, this Court grants permission to terminate the pregnancy of the petitioner no.1."
