Adoption row: Poster demanding job for child's father crops up, couple files complaint

Thiruvananthapuram: For Ajith and Anupama, victims of an illegal

adoption case, who were recently reunited with their child after over a

year, a fresh issue has emerged.

The Thiruvananthapuram-based couple has filed a police complaint in

connection with a poster that raises the demand for a government job

for the child's father Ajith by referring to him as 'a victim of the

institutional terror'.

The poster has been widely circulated in social media and the couple

that has denied involvement in the creation/circulation of the poster

have alleged the CPM to be behind it.

"I have filed the complaint with the police and the cyber cell against

those who shared this poster, most of whom are affiliated to the CPM,"

Ajith told Manorama News.

The poster mentions a petition allegedly filed by a host of personalities

who had stood beside them in the fight for their child.

BRP Bhaskar, K Satchidanandan, K Ajitha, and J Devika are among those

named in a long list mentioned in the poster.

Meanwhile, the state government is yet to reveal the findings of a report

filed by TV Anupama, Director of the Women and Child Development

Department on the adoption row.

It is understood that the report has adverse remarks against the Kerala

State Council for Child Welfare and its general secretary Shiju Khan for

flouting the adoption norms
