Hyderabad: A 68-year-old French woman who went missing three days ago was found murdered in bushes at Himayatsagar on Saturday. Later in the day, police arrested three persons, including the victim’s adopted daughter, in the murder case.

On Thursday, Cyberabad police received a complaint that Marie Christine, 68, a founder of Marica School at Dargah Khalij Khan in Gandipet, went missing on Wednesday night.

During the examination of suspects based on the information given by her family members, police picked up the victim’s 24-year-old adopted daughter, Roma.

On questioning her, police found that Marie was already murdered and her body was dumped in bushes at Himayatsagar. Later, police announced the arrest of Vikram Sriramulu and Rahul Gowtham along with Roma.

DCP (Shamshabad) N Prakash Reddy said Marie was looking for an alliance for Roma and she even uploaded her details on a matrimonial portal. Two months ago, they came across Vikram’s profile on the portal. Without the knowledge of the victim, Roma started to stay with Vikram at Kondapur, police said.

Marie did not like Vikram. When she came to know that Roma was staying with him and wanted to marry him, the victim rejected the proposal. “Roma decided to eliminate Marie and she conspired with Vikram and his friend Rahul. On the day of the murder, Roma visited the residence of Marie. Later, the victim dropped Roma at their school in Tolichowki in their car and returned to her house at Khalij Khan. By this time, the other two accused were already waiting for the victim as per plan,’’ Prakash Reddy said. Vikram and Rahul scaled the wall and got into the house and strangulated Marie to death. They stuffed the body in her car, drove it up to Himayatsagar and dumped it in a bush. They returned to her house and parked the car, police said. The accused also stole her phone and a laptop and transferred Rs 2 lakh from the victim’s account to Roma’s account.

The French woman has been living in Hyderabad for the last three decades and set up a few schools in city. She also gave shelter to several orphans. Marie had two biological daughters — Marie Solange, who resides in Hyderabad, and Rebecca, who stays in Puducherry. When Roma was a month old, Marie had adopted her as she was an orphan. Her biological daughters suspected Roma’s role in the murder as she has been staying away from their mother following a dispute.

A mother has reunited with the son she relinquished custody to in hopes he’d find a better home.

Melanie Pressley spent more than three decades wondering about the son she put up for adoption. She said her questions were finally answered when she took a DNA test from 23andMe, which suggested a genetic match to her firstborn son – Greg Vossler.

Pressley gave birth to Vossler in 1988 at the age of 18 in Canton, Ohio. Not being able to care for him financially, she found an adoption agency that would later connect her son to a two-parent household.

With the adoption being closed, all Pressley was left with was a single photograph of her newborn son from the day after his birth.

"You go through a mourning period and yet live the rest of your life mourning," Pressley told Fox News, when recalling the time she spent without her son.

SAN ANTONIO — Local adoption agencies are looking out for our community's children, including the unborn, and said they are ready to step up, if needed.

With abortions after six weeks now banned it's possible more children will be placed for adoption.

“Adoption is not an alternative to abortion. Abortion is an alternative to pregnancy that's unwanted. But adoption is an alternative to parenting,” said Elizabeth Jurenovich with the Abrazo Adoption Associates.

It has been one week since SB8 became law in Texas. Now, abortions after six weeks are banned.

Some wonder if this will this lead to more adoptions? Jurenovich said it's normal to assume that. However, it isn't the typical outcome.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court has been asked to review a case that centers on whether Native Americans should receive preference in adoptions of Native children.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a sharply divided ruling in April over the federal Indian Child Welfare Act. The law gives Native American families priority in foster care and adoption proceedings involving Native children, and places reporting and other requirements on states.

The appeals court upheld the law and Congress’ authority to enact it.

But the judges invalidated some of the law’s placement preferences, including for Native American families and Native foster homes, saying they violate equal protection rights under the Constitution.

The court also ruled that some of the law’s provisions unconstitutionally control the duties of state officials in adoption matters.

Ten-year-old Wasuthon Nielsen also called “Guide” came to Denmark from Thailand three years ago after his adoptive mother brought him with her to her Danish hometown of Taulov, where she lives with her Danish husband. Now the Danish authorities have decided to deport Wasuthon back to Thailand, Fredericia Dagblad writes.

Wasuthon came from Thailand where he lived with his aunt and grandparents. When his aunt, Praphatsanun Nielsen, married her Danish husband Niels Jørgen Fries Nielsen she moved to Denmark. At first, Parphatsanun went to Denmark without Guide who then stayed with his grandparents. Niels first wanted to see if Parphatsanun liked the life in Denmark before they brought Guide, he explains.

Parphatsanun quickly found a cleaning job in Denmark and settled in. She then went back to Thailand and got an official adoption for Guide approved before she brought him back to Denmark with her.

Today Guide is in the Danish third grade where he, according to his teachers, is making a lot of process. Guide himself is also enjoying his time in Denmark “I like math and gymnastics,” Guide says. He also says that he likes cartoons and playing video games.

In Guide’s free time he plays Esport at a local club. At home, he frequently has friends visiting to play football or badminton in the garden. Soon Guide is going to a disco night with his class at their school.

La Convention Adoption entre en vigueur pour le Niger

Aujourd'hui, 1er septembre 2021, la Convention du 29 mai 1993 sur la protection des enfants et la coopération en matière d'adoption internationale (Convention Adoption) est entrée en vigueur pour la République du Niger, suite au dépôt de son instrument d'adhésion le 24 mai 2021.

The benefits scandal seems to have been pushed into the background for many. The first victims received 30 thousand euros from the government, and 70 thousand children have been promised compensation. But all's well that ends well, unfortunately, is out of the question.

When the figurehead of the benefit victims Kristie Rongen, known for her impressive performance in the election debate against Rutte, recently tweeted with dismay that the daughter of a benefit victim has been locked up in an isolation cell in a youth care institution since May, my interest was aroused.

According to Rongen and other victims, Youth Care also plays a controversial role in the so-called 'allowance families'. While it is precisely these care providers who should have stood next to parents.

I spoke to the mother of the girl who is currently in an isolation cell, Karin van Opstal. She is the mother of four children and a law student (HBO) when she was suddenly put on a fraud list by the tax authorities in 2006.

She has no idea why, as a student she is entitled to childcare allowance. But she has to pay back 56 thousand euros. Due to the harsh collection policy of the Tax Authorities (they are claiming 990 euros per month), she loses her house.

JIPUKTUK (Halifax) – Between the 50s and 80s a number of African Nova Scotian newborn children were removed from their families where it was deemed that the mother was unable to care for her child, this coupled with the stigma of not being married.

Although some of these children for a short period were cared for in their home communities, eventually they were removed and placed/adopted into other homes, towns, cities and even provinces.

For example, my sister’s children were said to be adopted in Ontario.

Theresa Viola Brown was born at St Martha’s Hospital in Antigonish on January 15th 1972 and James Arnold Brown, was also born at St Martha’s Hospital in Antigonish on June 28 1969. These two children my family has never had the opportunity to know and love or even see. My sister, the mother of these two children passed away in August 2016, without ever knowing what became of her children.

From 2012 to 2916, I travelled to Ontario ten times to seek information from Adoption Services of Ontario, before doing so I contacted Nova Scotia Adoption Services to seek information, to no avail. Adoption Services of Ontario would always inform me that there was nothing they could do and that it was the home province that was responsible for providing the information that was being sought and that Nova Scotia was one of the few provinces without open files.

A Spanish woman (19) has demanded compensation of three million euros, because she was switched as a baby in a hospital in the city of Logroño. The painful mistake left the woman in a dysfunctional family where her parents could not care for her. The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, was raised by her alleged grandmother.

The other woman, who was born five hours earlier and therefore also grew up in the wrong family, has since been informed. According to the newspaper 'El Pais' and television channel RTVE, she has not yet lodged a complaint. The health authorities recognize "the human error", but they only want to pay 215,000 euros in compensation.

According to regional health minister Sara Alba, both babies were born prematurely and ended up in the incubator. They were then mistakenly switched there, the woman's lawyer, José Saez-Morga, told the Europa Press news agency on Tuesday.

DNA-tests

The mistake was only discovered in 2017, in the context of a maintenance case. DNA tests revealed that neither the alleged father nor the mother were the girl's biological parents.

Search for information about Mother Home De Hoeksteen, where unmarried mothers and their babies were cared for and separated from each other

From 1946 to 1973, unmarried mothers and their babies were taken care of and separated from each other in De Hoeksteen on Beethovenlaan in Hilversum. Fiom is looking for information or files about the 'mother home'.

In the past, an estimated 15,000 to 20,000 women in the Netherlands gave up their child - under duress - for adoption, voluntarily or involuntarily. In the 1950s to 1980s, women often came to mother and/or children's homes such as De Hoeksteen at 13 Beethovenlaan in Hilversum. They stayed there during (part of) their pregnancy and sometimes after the birth of their child.

Information about this stay and the distance for adoption is recorded in the 'distance file'. In order to give more adoptees and surrogate mothers access to parentage information, Fiom (specialist in the field of unwanted pregnancy and parentage questions) is starting a search for renunciation files and other documents with information.
