Chittagong Facebook Post

Hello everyone. Will briefly tell you about my trip to Bangladesh. I have visited the orphanage in Chittagong where I lived before I came to DK. I was very surprised when I had not expected to get information about my biological mother. The orphanage had the names of my mother and father. My father died before I was handed over to the orphanage. From the surname, my family is Hindu. There was also an address, but it does not exist. The orphanage told that it is not unusual to write a false address. I met a lovely family who is very well known in the Christian environment and has helped with adoptions for many years. They want to help, so the search is still ongoing. Unfortunately, we have no more time for this time in Bangladesh. We hope the next trip will yield results. As my husband says, now knows where my talkability and stubbornness come from

Danish:

Hej Alle. Vil kort fortælle om min tur til Bangladesh. Jeg har besøgt børnehjemmet i Chittagong, hvor jeg boede inden jeg kom til DK. Jeg blev meget overrasket, da jeg ikke havde forventet at få information om min biologiske mor. Børnehjemmet havde navnene på min mor og far. Min far døde inden jeg blev overdraget til børnehjemmet. Ud fra efternavnet er min familie hindu. Der var også en adresse, men den eksisterer ikke. Børnehjemmet fortalte, at det ikke er unormalt at man skriver en falsk adresse. Jeg mødte en dejlig familie, som er meget kendt i det kristne miljø og har hjulpet med adoptioner igennem mange år. De vil gerne hjælpe, så eftersøgningen er stadig i gang. Vi har desværre ikke mere tid for denne gang i Bangladesh. Vi håber næste tur giver resultat. Som min mand siger, nu ved hvor min snaksaglighed og stædighed kommer fra????????????

Adozioni, i “ladri di bambini” non ci sono. L’archiviazione che inchioda l’autorità: “Denunce infondate e abuso di potere”

Adoptions, the "child thieves" are not there. The filing that nails the authority: "groundless complaints and abuse of power"

After 5 years the Milan Court acquits a Milanese non-profit organization from the charge of "buying children" in the Congo. The decree of archiving also shows the role played by a piece of the State in crediting accusations "unfounded" against the sector, already grappling with numbers falling: the Adoption Commission, in the hands of the ex-magistrate Della Monica, would have "crossed their institutional powers ", also committing" abuse of power "

Italians are not "Thieves of children". The crime report was unfounded. A few days ago the Court of Milan issued a decree to dismiss the criminal proceedings against the heads of "Aibi - Amici dei bambini", a body in San Giuliano Milanese active in international adoptions in Congo since 2007. They were investigated in 2017 for alleged serious crimes following a series of complaints lodged with the Public Prosecutor's Office of Rome in 2014 by the then Vice President of the International Adoptions Commission, Silvia Della Monica. The investigation was then transferred to Milan for territorial jurisdiction. The association, according to the original hypothesis of Della Monica, had used the money offered as a donation by the aspiring parents to corrupt the Congolese judicial and police authorities to obtain the issue of "adoptability decrees" of minors, which would have been so "Bought" and removed from the legitimate natural families to then be sent to adoptions in reality not needed.

The international scandal was told in episodes by the weekly L’Espresso, starting from a cover with an alarming title: “Thieves of children. Shock investigation "then awarded as" cover of the year ". Three years after that publication and five from the first accusations, the castle of hypothesized crimes proved - in the words of the investigating magistrate Sofia Fioretta - unfounded on the merits: "There are no concrete procedural elements, not even circumstantial, to hypothesize to support in a judgment that AiBi had "paid" the natural parents as compensation to be able to bring their children to adoption ". So for the other very serious accusations, which ranged from the criminal association to the violation of the rules on adoptions, up to the hypothesis of mistreatment.

The decree of no place to proceed, which we publish in full (DOWNLOAD), is important because, in addition to rehabilitating the defendants and the Milanese body, it raises the adoption sector from a shameful shadow cast for years without a founded reason. On a sector already grappling with dive numbers compared to the past. The decision that archives a long season of poisons gives us a glimpse of the responsibility of a piece of the State, that International Adoption Commission (CAI) that the legislator has placed directly under the umbrella of the Presidency of the Council, so high and delicate is the sphere of rights which had to protect, together with the legality in the adoption procedures. Well, the decree today tells how from that position, instead, a black page was written in which the public authority "went beyond its institutional powers and committed an abuse of power". Thus writes the magistrate on page 22 of the decree.

Daily fact. Adoptions, the "child thieves" are not there. The filing that nailed the authority: "groundless complaints and abuse of power

After 5 years the Court of Milan acquits a Milanese non-profit organization (n. Ai.Bi. - Amici dei Bambini) from the accusation of "buying children" in the Congo. The decree of archiving also shows the role played by a piece of the State in crediting accusations "unfounded" to the detriment of the sector, already grappling with nosedive numbers: the Adoption Commission, in the hands of ex-magistrate Della Monica, would have "crossed their institutional powers ", also committing" abuse of power "- subtitles the investigation signed by Thomas Mackinson of" Il Fatto Quodiano ".

In June 2017, Il Fatto Quotidiano, for the first time revealed the absurd plan of the former vice president of CAI, Silvia Della Monica: creating a parallel system of loyal authorized bodies, removing obstacles starting from Ai.Bi ..

Today, March 22nd, the journalist of the Adozioni inquiry, the dark side of the state: change at the top after three years of shadows, poisons and political-judicial conflicts - Thomas Mackinson - traces the 31 pages of motivations exposed by the GIP, Soria Fioretto in the decree of archiving of the investigation for "complete groundlessness of the news of crime" initiated against the leaders of the Amici dei Bambini association on alleged irregularities committed in the carrying out of international adoptions in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

We report the new Thomas Mackinson investigation for Il Fatto Quotidiano "Adoptions, the" child thieves "are not there. The filing that nails the authority: "groundless complaints and abuse of power"

Adoption in Romania in the international context of 1980-1990

Put adoption back in the international context of the time

Since the 1980s, the demand for children to adopt from rich countries is 10 times higher than the number of children given to adoption by poor countries.

Adoption represents a powerful lobbying, which in Western Europe as in the United States, Canada and Israel is able to exert regular pressure on the countries providing child through their governments.

Ahmedabad: French couple adopts 2 orphan kids

A French couple's four-year wait to have children ended on Wednesday after they adopted two brothers, Vinayak (6) and Vignesh (5) from Shishu Gruh of Ahmedabad. The family flew to France on Wednesday night.

An adoption ceremony was held at the Shishu Gruh, located in Paldi, where Police Commissioner AK Singh and other officials of the orphanage were present. After the formalities of adoption were completed, the brothers were handed over to Jeremy and Madeline Platin, residents of Pont de L'arche in France.

Madeline's father was a traveller and had stayed in India for a considerable period. When the couple was planning to adopt a kid, her father suggested that they consider adopting a child from India. The couple started making the efforts four years ago.

As per officials, the brothers were found by locals the Sadarnagar police from near Kubernagar railway crossing on April 30, 2018. The cops, who collected the duo, later handed them over to Shishu Gruh. It was revealed during the investigation that the brothers lost both parents early in life and didn't have any relatives.

On August 16, 2018, after the legal formalities, the brothers were registered with the Central Adoption Resources Authorities (CARA) for adoption on the condition that both be adopted together. There were several couples who came forward to adopt but nothing materialised until Jeremy and Madeline agreed to the condition.

Adozioni in Congo senza rilevanza penale» Così Milano ha archiviato l'inchiesta su Aibi

Judge Fioretta: "The families of origin of the adopted children fit into a deconstructed and polygamous cultural context". Marco Griffini, his wife Irene Bertuzzi and their daughter Valentina have not committed irregularities. Appeal of adoptive parents who had reported them: illegitimate proceeding due to lack of notification to the offended parties, the investigation must be reopened

The investigation against the president of Aibi, Marco Griffini, 71, his wife Irene Bertuzzi, 69, and their daughter Valentina, 36, has been closed. Thus decided the judge for the preliminary investigations of the Court of Milan, Sofia Fioretta: according to the magistrate the facts reported are not criminally relevant and the elements gathered during the investigations are not suitable and sufficient to support the prosecution in court. Consequently, the investigating magistrate writes at the end of the thirty-one pages of the decree's motivation, in compliance with what is also requested by the district anti-mafia prosecutor, "the proceeding must be filed due to the groundlessness of the crime report".

The leaders of the "Aibi - Amici dei bambini" association in San Giuliano Milanese were investigated in 2017 for alleged serious crimes in the procedures for adoption in the Democratic Republic of the Congo by the then anti-mafia prosecutor, Ilda Boccassini, who had inherited the file against unknown persons. opened by the Rome Public Prosecutor and then transferred to Milan for territorial jurisdiction. The adoptive parents of various regions of Italy, who first reported the alleged irregularities to the Commission for international adoptions, filed an appeal: they claim that the provision of judge Fioretta is illegitimate since the hearing in the chamber convened on March 1st , due to lack of notification of the criminal proceedings to all the offended parties, and therefore request that the investigation be reopened.

The request for filing had been filed at the beginning of 2018 by the same Milanese anti-mafia prosecutor, still directed by Ilda Boccassini, after the magistrate Fioretta had denied authorization for wiretapping, claiming, unlike the public prosecution, the lack of sufficient evidence of crime . At that point, deprived of the fundamental instrument of interceptions, the Public Prosecutor's Office had declared the impossibility of continuing the investigations. The request for archiving has always been opposed by the adoptive parents who asked and still ask the State to investigate what happened in the Democratic Republic of the Congo between 2014 and 2016: a period in which five adopted Italian children have disappeared into thin air through the association of Marco Griffini, from Italian couples whose surnames they already carried. Children who were in an orphanage in Goma, in the East of the African country, and were waiting to leave for Italy.

Of all the facts reported by over forty adoptive families and gathered in a long statement by the Commission for international adoptions, then entrusted by the government to the magistrate Silvia Della Monica, the judge Fioretta has now established the total criminal extraneousness of Marco Griffini, of his wife Irene Bertuzzi, CEO of Aibi and their daughter, Valentina Griffini, head of operations in Africa.

'Smitten' with Australian author as steamy video shows lovebirds grinding at dive bar

EXCLUSIVE: Jillian Michaels goes wild! After split with fiancée the exercise guru parties with Ruby Rose, is 'friends with benefits' with her makeup artist and 'smitten' with Australian author as steamy video shows lovebirds grinding at dive bar.

Jillian Michaels has become Hollywood's biggest playgirl since splitting with her fiancée this summer and has been linked to a bevy of women, DailyMailTV can reveal.

The celebrity trainer called off her wedding to her long-term partner Heidi Rhoades in June after nearly nine years together.

Michaels wasted no time in moving on and has since been spotted all over Ruby Rose, L Word actress Tracy Ryerson and her makeup artist Chloe Francke.

The 44-year-old is said to be smitten with Australian author Tara Winkler, flying Down Under to spend time with the brunette and the two were seen dancing on each other at a bar in Sydney.

Tara Winkler talks losing her partner and community work on “Australian Story”

Empathy—real, life-altering empathy—is an underrated value. In the 21st century, when human interactions occur primarily through virtual means, human empathy more often than not takes the form of online donations.

Which is why the story of Tara Winkler is so extraordinary.

In 2005, at the age of 21, Winkler traveled to Cambodia to volunteer at Akira’s Landmine Museum, which supported victims of landmines. At that time, she visited an orphanage Battambang, which, she later found out in 2007, was run by a director who was embezzling funds and sexually and emotionally abusing the young children who took refuge there.

Horrified by the stories of abuse, Winkler partnered with local NGO director, Pon Jedtha, to found the Cambodian Children’s Trust (CCT), a non-profit NGO that fosters the educational and ethical empowerment of the children of Battambang.

Tired of “orphanage tourism,” Winkler and her team recently converted CCT from an orphanage into a “community development organization” to better serve the Battambang community, as well as in order to try to keep the children with their families. “I’m not mum any more,” she explained in an interview. “I played that role for a little when it was necessary, but that isn’t something that’s sustainable for all those kids.”
