Hulpmiddelen ten behoeve van het nemen van een opvoedingsbesluit

There must be an independent investigation into the cases of adoption fraud that have surfaced in recent days. This is according to N-VA Flemish Parliament member Lorin Parys. “I am submitting a request for a hearing, and afterwards I want Minister Vandeurzen to conduct an independent investigation. That must be able to start in the coming weeks.”

Last weekend,  17-year-old Thereza De Wannemaeker from Denderleeuw testified  in Het Laatste Nieuws about the fraud that took place during her adoption from Ethiopia. Her adoption file turned out to contain false information. For instance, her father was wrongly declared dead and her mother was listed as missing.

Following her testimony, other Ethiopian adopted children and parents also came forward with examples of fraud. In some cases, this involves serious errors: parents wrongly declared dead, children pressured to lie about their age, and children falsely presented as brother and sister.

Virtually all files were handled through the adoption agency Ray of Hope and were processed in Ethiopia via the same contact person.

Vandeurzen: "Anyone with doubts about adoption file can have it investigated"

'Anyone with questions or doubts about his file or adoption procedure can go to the adoption service or to the Flemish Center for Adoption (VCA). They can provide insight into the file and together with the adopted persons or the adoptive parents view if and how there can be more clarity. If necessary, an on-site investigation can provide a definitive answer '. That is what Flemish Minister for Welfare Jo Vandeurzen (CD&V) says

Between 1997 and 2017, Ethiopia was by far the most popular adoptive country for Flanders. A total of 936 children came here. The question is whether that always happened correctly. Last weekend, a 17-year-old girl from Denderleeuw revealed how her file was lied to from beginning to end. The Flemish government does not exclude that there are still victims. "It is very difficult to give that guarantee," says Het Laatste Nieuws. Flemish Minister for Welfare Jo Vandeurzen "understands that the article raises many questions among adoptive parents and adopted children and that this causes concern." The CD&V minister also says that people can turn to the relevant adoption service or the Flemish Center for Adoption (VCA) if they have questions or doubts. "In recent years, we have been confronted with stories that show that adoptions have not been successful in all cases in the past," Vandeurzen acknowledges. The rules are stricter, but intercountry adoption is 'put in a negative light'. "Consequently, many adopted people ask themselves about their origin," it sounds.

According to Vandeurzen, the problem certainly does not only concern Flanders. Switzerland, the Netherlands and Sweden, for example, have already decided to look at adoption practices from the past. 'Such an investigation is, for the time being, the only possibility of gaining more insight into where it went wrong in the past. We also take this concern to heart and look at how we can bring more clarity about adoption practices from the past, "concludes the CD&V minister.

Mary was adopted from Faith Home in Porur in 1973, and raised by her adopted parents in Lerum, Sweden.

CHENNAI: Ever since she was a child, Christina was drawn to the name Mary. She was adopted from Faith Home in Porur in 1973, and raised by her adopted parents in Lerum, Sweden. Her fascination was such that Christina decided to incorporate the name into her first business.

When she returned to Chennai in 2018, a document from the Madras High Court revealed that her birth name was Mary. The 46-year-old legally changed her name to Mary Christina Rhedin. While the papers gave her some answers, they also raised many questions - about her parents, her extended family and her half-brother, who she didn’t know existed.

What am I?

Seated in Café Mori, INKO, Mary’s laugh fills the air as she recalls the moment when she met her adoptive mother.

NAMAKKAL: The couples involved in the Namakkal (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Namakkal) child trafficking case

who sold their babies to middlemen mainly to tide over financial difficulties benefited little from the deal as they got meagre

payments for the same.

Namakkal district (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Namakkal-district) superintendent of police R Arularasu told TOI that

none of the parents received even Rs 1 lakh from the brokers. “They were paid between Rs 30,000 and Rs 95,000,” he said

My Mother Disappeared, and My Father had Died.

None of it is true.

FOR THE FIRST TIME A FLEMISH TEENAGER TESTIFIES ABOUT FRAUD REGARDING HER ADOPTION FROM ETHIOPIA.

HLN, 27 April 2019 (Google translation)

In 2009, Thereza (17) came from Ethiopia and ended up in Flanders. Her adoptive parents were told that the biological mother had disappeared and that the father had died. A lie, as it turns out. ‘’ My file is full of errors.’’ Thereza is outraged and tells her story because she wants to make sure that adoptive children are taken seriously. ‘’ We are not products with which you can do whatever you want. ‘’ JEROEN BOSSAERT & LIEVE VAN BASTELAERE.

When questioned about what was to happen to the seven babies sold to adoptive parents, SP Ara Arularasu said that the department is yet to take a call on the matter.

NAMAKKAL: A day after a retired assistant nurse in Rasipuram was secured for allegedly running an adoption racket, based on an audio clip that had surfaced, she and her husband were arrested on Friday. Superintendent of Police Ara Arularasu announced that she had confessed to having sold seven newborns to people in various places, including Erode, Omalur, Salem Annathanapatti and Mettur.

After she reportedly revealed that she had taken the help of a few brokers, a special team apprehended an ambulance driver employed with the government Sengarai hospital atop Kolli Hills for his role in the racket.

The couple and the ambulance driver have been booked under sections 370 (2), (4) (exploitation of person by fraud), 420 (cheating), 471 (Using genuine a forged document), 109 (Punishment of abetment) of Indian Penal Code, and sections 80 and 81 of Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015.

According to the SP, a few officials have been sent to other districts to follow up on leads. When questioned about what was to happen to the seven babies sold to adoptive parents, he said that the department is yet to take a call on the matter. The Social Welfare department will take necessary steps after the investigation is completed, he assured.
