A couple find the daughter they dreamt of, as a woman goes in search of her past

Antoinette Sinnas brings out the beauty of giving an orphan a ray of hope, an abundance of love and a sense of belonging. Fiona and Dave Anastasi have just adopted Nina from India and given new life to a child who would have otherwise probably spent her days cooped up in a cot in squalid conditions. In so doing, they have also given new meaning to their own life…

Fiona and Dave Anastasi’s road to becoming parents began seven-and-a-half years ago, just after they got married. Having tried to conceive for years, their hopes began to plummet. The next step was to explore the option of IVF.

Having always wanted to adopt a child after having kids of their own, Fiona and Dave decided to pursue the adoption process simultaneously. They hoped both would have a positive outcome one day and were optimistic.

But with every passing treatment and every passing year, the couple’s optimism turned into heartbreak, especially for Fiona. A shadow of bitterness began creeping over her after she underwent four IVF sessions and had multiple miscarriages.

KOTA: Child Welfare Committee (CWC) on Saturday, in compliance with the order by Rajasthan High Court, sealed the headquarters of Emmanuel Society in Dadwada area of Kota city.

A single bench of Rajasthan High Court, comprising Justice S P Sharma on Wednesday this week, while dismissing the two petitions by the Emmanuel Orphanage Society and school challenging the ceiling and seizure of its office and computers by CWC, ordered to seal its headquarters and to shift the children staying in orphanages to government-run homes.

CWC in compliance with the order by high court sealed the headquarter of Emmanuel Society in Dadwada area of Kota city and also its branch offices, CWC chairman Harish Gurubakshani told.

The management, without getting its orphanage registered in Juvenile Justice Act had run orphanage where around 500 to 600 children were reported to be staying. Later, in order to avoid action, the management set up Jeevan Asha hostel and by fabricating fake identify and other documents of the children, shifted them to the hostel, he added.

As per the order by the high court, the children of the hostel would be shifted to other government run homes within a couple of days, he said adding CWC would now collect the papers and other relevant documents from its headquarter and following investigation of the same would submit its report.

Cheating Adoption Indonesia

On April 22, 2018, in collaboration with Stichting Mijn Roots and mw. Y. Veenendaal organized a meeting at the Indonesian Embassy, ??following the broadcast of Zembla, "Adoption cheating part 3", where we were all in. It was a meeting for adopted people from Indonesia and their adoptive parents because there was a need for it. Although this day was organized in the short term, there was a lot of interest.

The Chennai police busted a child trafficking racket that had spread its web from Uttar Pradesh to the city, on Monday. The criminal activity came to light and was investigated after Yogesh Kumar, a Madras High Court advocate trainee, filed a case at the Kilpauk police station over suspicions that his wife had illegally procured a newborn baby.

Yogesh and Padmini got married in February 2016 and just one month later his wife allegedly claimed to be pregnant. According to the police she had a condition which made it difficult for her to conceive a child and thus she faked a pregnancy.

"She seems to have had a problem conceiving and decided to adopt a child without the knowledge of her in-laws," says C Shyamala Devi, the DCP who led a special team to nab the child-trafficking group. "Once she was in her parents' home, she went online and posted that she was looking for a child on a website where people buy and sell other goods. That is how a broker found her and “sold” the baby girl," she explains.

On January 11, 2017, Padmini told her husband that she had given birth to a girl at the Government Hospital for Women and Children in Egmore. But before her husband could reach the hospital from the court, she came back to her parents' residence with the baby. Following this, Kumar filed a petition at the Madras High Court, which directed the child trafficking unit of the city police to probe the matter.

When investigations began, it soon came to light, that the child had been trafficked from a family in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. Jeya Sharma (39) and Amit Sharma (42) gave birth to a third child in January 2017 and wanted to sell the baby since they could not take care of the baby.
