Adoptions of Abandoned Children Halted by Ethiopian Court

On May 4, 2009 the Ethiopian First Instance Court temporarily stopped

accepting cases involving abandoned children referred by orphanages in Addis

Ababa, citing a substantial increase in the number of children being brought

for adoption. The number of abandoned children from orphanages in Addis

Ababa has grown dramatically in recent months and Ethiopian authorities have

become aware of possible cases of unethical practices associated with some

of them.

Neither the Ministry of Women's Affairs (MOWA) nor the First Instance Court

had been accepting abandonment cases from any orphanage in Addis Ababa

pending an inquiry. However, on May 23 the Court confirmed that while the

investigation into cases of abandoned children continues, it has begun

accepting cases of abandoned children referred from Addis Ababa government

orphanages. These include the following orphanages:

Kebebe Tsehay Orphanage

Ketchene Orphanage

Kolfe Youth Center

We waren dus wel wat ongerust maar na contact met Ray of hope en kind & gezin zagen we de courtdate vandaag terug helemaal zitten.

Echter toen ROH vandaag belde om te laten weten dat ons dossier vast zit in Ethiopië en ze nog niet kunnen zeggen tot hoelang...traantjes kwamen al snel boven.

Dit is echt niet fijn meer !!
