CARI hit the Philippines.........child sex trafficking
CARI team on way home from the Philippines, after rescuing in cooperation with local police 3 young children aged 8,13,13 from child prostitution. Due to the storm that just hit the Philippines, when our team first arrived the operation was... held up longer then what we expected.
As of 01:00 this morning our operation was concluded and instead of the youngest child who we had under observation we also encounted the other two 13 year old girls who we rescued also. These children have seen and done things no adult should see or go through let alone a young innocent child. This is a horrific crime that must be dealt with head on!
It sickens our operatives to see first hand what is going on, but it is the most rewarding experience in life to save these children. Child Abduction and Human Trafficking rescuing is what we do!

All 3 children are now in safe hands with authorities and will be placed in rehabilitation centres where they will get the appropriate and qualified care needed. 1 of the 2 traffickers and 1 parent of one of the children has been arrested and dealt with by the police. CARI has provided all our video evidence to the police to assist them in their case.
The accused have been using these 3 children for over 7 months, including making them participate in child pornography videos and live webcam sites.
For some strange reason one parent of one of the children seems to think it is ok for their child to be shown over the internet or webcam doing things to herself alone. This seems to be a growing problem also due to poverty. Parents allowing their young children to be filmed alone naked and because no one is physically touching their child it's ok to get money from gangs who pay parents to use these children for pedophiles sitting in a room overseas watching and instructing the child from thousands of miles away.
Due to privacy and security reason we can not post any images of these children and/or of the operation due to the ongoing legal case against those involved.
Our team has already recieved their next location.............

4th Abducted Child returned home in November...
While the smear campaign created by Martin Waage (ABP World Group), Andrew Laws and Donya Alnahi continues, CARI just keeps bringing abducted children home ;-) ;-)
Now, we don’t usually serial post, but we are so happy and with the father’s permission…..
As of 3pm today CARI operatives have recovered another beautiful little girl home to Spain from the Czech Republic making this our 4th child returned in November.
We know there is a very big welcome home party going on right now and you all deserve every minute of it!
Taken out on a shopping day 3 years ago and not returning, this victim father has seen and done it all to try and get his daughter home without success. He has not seen his girl since the shopping day. He had to file for bankruptcy as a result of 3 years of legal fees so CARI felt obligated to help when he told us his story…….so we did………for FREE!
We won’t say too much more as we know you want to move on as quickly as possible from your horrendous ordeal, but from all the team at CARI we would like to say it was a pleasure and welcome home little princess. Congrats on the new job offer also ;-)
Have an amazing Christmas. Your present is on the way little one ;-)

Beware...Parental Child Abduction season is approaching
Beware the season is approaching.....holiday season is the high season for 'International Parental Child Abductions'.....
Around this time each year CARI is contacted by many frantic parents who have had their child/children abducted or re...tained in a foreign country.
CARI knowns particularly in the lead up to the school holidays; that before or during school holidays is one of the most common times for a child to be abducted. One parent takes the child/children alone on a holiday and never returns often taking the child/children overseas to parts unknown.
UK figures alone, show that Parental Child Abduction and custody cases have doubled in the space of a decade - from 272 in 2003 to 580 in 2013.

Some signs (not limited to the below) to look out for;
-The most obvious warning sign is a break down in a relationship,
-A sudden interest in getting a passport or copy birth certificate for the child,
-Concealed, hidden, and abrupt communication with individuals or family members living in a foreign country,
-A parent expressing a wish to holiday alone with the child,
-A change in circumstances such as leaving employment or redundancy, selling a house or giving up tenancy,
-No financial reason to stay,
-An announcement of an unexpected trip to another country with the child.
Abductions happen as easy as the abductor saying they are taking the children out for the day to a Theme Park and before you know it, you receive a message from a foriegn number stating your children are not returning.
International Parental Child Abduction is and has been a worldwide epidemic problem, and it can happen to you! Remember, the Hague Convention is only a tool to assist in the return of your child, and a somewhat unreliable tool.......Prevention is better than cure. There are still also a large amount of countries who have not and will not sign up to the Hague Convention, then you have those that are signed up, but refuse to adhere to the laws on returning abducted children.
CARI is available for advice on prevention measures, warning signs or support if you just need someone to talk to. Many of our past clients are also happy to offer support as they have been in the shoes of a 'victim parent'. There is no better advice then from people who have experienced it all.
Many parents ask CARI for advice on how to prevent one parent from taking the child abroad on holiday. However, this is very difficult to prevent when the courts in many countries often do not take parental concerns seriously or enforce court rulings.
Child abductors are not penalized in their home countries, since The Hague Convention on International Child Abduction is only a tool for the return of children to their Habitual Residence and does not deal with punishment. In fact most authorities turn a blind eye to Parental Child Abduction.
Follow your gut feelings, if you think something is not right contact CARI.......

Child Trafficking victim rescued
If you think that the movie ‘Taken’ only happens in Hollywood, think again. CARI has been working on a confidential and somewhat difficult rescue operation for almost 7 months now.
As of 2am this morning CARI has successfully recovered a 17 year old girl who was abducted and sold on the black market 3 years ago. We can not go into details about the girl as the family wish to stay anonymous, but we can tell you CARI’s efforts in our none stop persistance to locate and rescue this girl has pushed us to our best.
This girl, lets call her Lucky was moved and sold 2 times and taken to 2 different countries, since she was first taken from her home country. She has been subject to drugs, beatings and made to work as a prositute for her abductors making them money. Unfortunately she is now addicted to serious drugs and will need treatment to get clean. CARI operatives have had to infiltrate a couple of different organised gangs in order to locate Lucky, risking our own lives. It has taken time and patients but we did it.
Lucky’s family is in disbelief to get their lovely daughter home and alive, but they have a long time before Lucky is back to normal, if ever mentally.
Due to the nature of this operation, CARI has now passed on all the details of this organised gang to the authorities who hopefully will deal with them.
Child trafficking is a serious problem with thousands of children out there needing help to be rescued, but the sade reality is no one hears about it except in small articles like the one attached.
Trafficking of children (anything from age 5 to teens) across the world is increasing sharply. In most cases the children would be lured away from poverty-stricken parents who would release children to traffickers believing that they were to go for education opportunities and that jobs awaited them.
The truth is that these children will be beaten, raped and even forced into an addiction to drugs before being put to work as prostitutes for the pleasure of paedophiles and so-called “sex tourists”. With nowhere to turn, they literally become slaves who are often imprisoned in the suburbs of cities and held at the whim of the trafficker.
To all of our contacts who assisted in this rescue, thank you! You have given a young beautiful girl her life back.
Lucky, it was our pleasure to help find and rescue you. You have a loving and caring family who has never given up on you. We wish you a speedy recovery, from all the team at CARI.

JUST IMAGE IF IT WAS YOUR CHILD!
CARI has been doing extensive research into the horrendous crime of ‘Child Trafficking’ and has decided to take action. We are continuing to extend our services to include the safe recovery of children who …have been abducted and sold into the sex trade around the world. ‘The Forgotten Children’.

We are joining forces with some wonderful none government organisations and charities in 3 countries where CARI will be providing a team of operatives who are going to be working side by side with the charities and local authorities.
Exciting news!!!!
As we mentioned in our last blog post we have some very exciting news we have been working on for abducted children and their parents…..We are happy to announce one of those ideas….
We understand one of the biggest battles parents are …faced with is lack of finance due to years of legal fees, travel expenses, accomodation, recoveries and so on. So we approached one airline with an idea to help these parents in some way and the response we received was very positive.
For the last 10 months CARI has been in talks with now 3 different airlines about offering subsidised or free tickets for all CARI’s clients and their children.
We are happy to announce that from now on all our clients and their children will either recieve a very large discount or free one way tickets from these airlines to get home.
Now……CARI took it one step further, if you fly with one of the airlines that offer a discount, CARI will pay the discounted ticket for our client and children.
That means all CARI’s clients from now on will be flying home with their children for free which is one less thing our clients don’t need to worry about!!!!

Brazil and International Child Abduction
A case of a Brazilian woman arrested and imprisoned in a foreign country for parental child abduction. Cátia Gomes, from the Brazilian state Bahia was arrested at a German airport upon her arrival there. She was charged with abducting her 6 year old German born child. She had joint custody of the child with her German ex-husband. She brought the child to Brazil supposedly for a short vacation with her ex-husband’s permission and then simply refused to return at the pre-arranged time. She left the child in Brazil and had gone back to Germany where she had lived in order to contest custody again. That’s when she was arrested and in our opinion should stay arrested and behind bars until the child is returned.
If all this sounds vaguely familiar that’s because it is all too common. Just look back at the case of Sean Goldman the US born child of a Brazilian mother Bruna Bianchi and American father David Goldman. Once again it was a case where the mother (while still married) brought Sean, then only 4 years old, to Brazil supposedly for a two week vacation in 2004. She simply didn’t go back, took up (conjugal) residence with a Brazilian boyfriend applied for a divorce in Brazil and was granted one, only because the boyfriend, João Pedro Lins e Silva, was a lawyer and from a family of influential lawyers. Shortly thereafter Bruna and João Pedro married despite the fact that at least in the US her marriage still hadn’t been disolved so now she was both a kidnapper and bigamist.
Bruna subsequently died during the birth of her child with João Pedro and he then filed for custody of Sean. He almost was able to change Brazilian law, which gives no legal rights whatsoever to step-parents, when through his family’s influence on the Judiciary he filed for custody based on “Paternity by Affection” and as a result Sean remained here in Brazil until finally turned back over to his father on December 24, 2009.
There was also another case where a Brazilian woman Fernanda Guiguer was arrested and jailed in London for supposedly abducting her daughter from the biological father’s London home. In all of these cases the Brazilian government and Brazilian judicial system go to the limits to protect the abductor. They even ignore both Brazilian and international law; they ignore the very Constitution of Brazil in doing so.
This begs the question… WHY???
Why would they do this rather than return the child and be done with it? Brazil’s nationality law bestows citizenship on anyone born on Brazilian soil (except children born to foreigners in Brazil in the service of their nation) so, you from any country in the world have a child here, your child is automatically Brazilian. This is the legal concept of Jus Soli. The nationality law also follows the concept Jus Sanguinis which means that a child born to a Brazilian parent regardless of where that child is born is also a Brazilian citizen; and once in Brazil is considered Brazilian above all other citizenships that the child may have. Brazilian law also prohibits the extradition of any Brazilian citizen, regardless of the crime that extradition is being sought for. They are simply “untouchable” to legal authorities outside Brazil.
These are facts that abducting (Brazilian) parents rely upon. They know that if they can get to Brazil with their child that there is little hope for the child to be returned to the custodial (foreign) parent; or at least that the process will drag out for years. It doesn’t matter how they get back to Brazil, whether it be using false documents, breaking any law in the book; once back on Brazilian soil they are “untouchable” and the child’s custody will be determined here in Brazil, by Brazilian laws, despite any other Conventions and Treaties to which Brazil is a ratifying nation. This is something that ALL abducting parents are well aware of. They are also well aware of the fact that Brazil has a long history of signing Treaties and Conventions and then ignoring them.
They are pathetic as far as honoring their obligations under treaties and always have been. Abducting parents also know that the Brazilian judicial system is up for sale to the highest bidder, whoever has money and influence can get whatever they want from courts here.
So what does this all mean?
Well, simply put… if you have a child that has even one drop of Brazilian blood, regardless of where in the world you are – your child is simply not immune from this kind of abduction. If your child’s custody is at stake and your spouse manages to bring the child to Brazil, with or without your permission, kidnapped or not your chances of getting your child back anytime soon is ZERO. You will be in for the legal battle of your life if there is any hope at all in getting your child back into your custody and back to your home country and you’re not only going up against your former spouse, but against an entire country and it’s laws and government who simply will do everything to protect the spouse, who has broken the law, simply because they are a Brazilian citizen.
If you are married to a Brazilian and have a child, if the continued health your marriage is at all in doubt, don’t even dream of coming to Brazil on a vacation with the child or allowing the child to come with your spouse… you could be jumping right into the middle of an international incident if you do.
Some interesting points below highlighting Brazil by an expert in International Child Abduction;
From an expert report that I prepared recently – and that was submitted to a California court – on Brazil’s practices concerning international child abduction:
“Congress requires the U.S. State Department to determine the compliance by U.S. treaty partners with the Convention. The State Department’s annual Compliance Reports are, in my opinion, extremely reliable and authoritative (although often unduly restrained and “diplomatic”).
In its most recent report the U.S. State Department has singled out just five countries as being either ‘Not Compliant’ with the Hague Convention or as demonstrating ‘Patterns of Non-Compliance with the Convention.’ Brazil is one of the five countries. Indeed, in each such report for the past five years Brazil has been declared to be ‘Not Compliant’ or to demonstrate ‘Patterns of Non-Compliance.’
Brazil is the only country with the dubious distinction of having been singled out in that way in each and every such annual report.
It is my opinion that, when a court is asked to bar a child’s overseas visitation, it should balance the extent of the risk that a particular parent will abduct the child with the extent of the risk that the foreign legal system will not promptly effectively return the child if the child is retained in that country.
At one extreme is a child’s potential visit to a non-Hague country that is a well-established safe haven for international child abduction such as India or that clearly does not adequately comply with the Convention such as Brazil.
In my opinion, a court should require far fewer warning signs that indicate that the parent might keep the child in such a country in order to justify – and to necessitate – an injunction barring such travel, since the risk of a mistake is so extremely high.”

According to A Family Resource Guide on International Parental Kidnapping, published by the US Department of Justice, profiles of parents who may commit international parental abduction include:
- Parents who have threatened to abduct the children or who have abducted them before
- Parents who believe that their children have been abused, and who have social support for this belief
- Parents who are paranoid or sociopathic
- Parents who have strong ties to another country and were in a mixed-culture marriage
- Parents who feel disenfranchised by the US legal system (especially those who are poor, members of minority groups, or subject to abuse) who have family and social support
- Other factors and warning signs associated with abduction include:
- Parents who have no jobs or who are financially independent
- Parents who lack strong ties to their communities
- A parent who take steps such as quitting a job, selling a home or terminating a lease, selling furniture or putting it into storage, applying for passports for the children, seeking medical and school records for the children, and/or changing his or her appearance
- A parent whose immigration status affects his or her ability to stay in the US, especially if this status has changed recently
- A parent with a history of domestic violence or child abuse
- A parent with a criminal record
