Say hello to Anastasia

Say hello to Anastasia (name changed for privacy and security). In a rare case Anastasia was illegally abducted by her father 5 weeks ago when she was 1 week old. The system leaves left-behind parents no option but to find and recover their children as quickly as possible as authorities do not move fast enough.

Due to Anastasia's age CARI acted urgently without hesitation and within days of being contacted for help by her very concerned family.

Up until 4 days ago Anastasia ...was missing without a trace as the abductor like many others went on the run.

Recovered/negotiated legally today by a team from CARI who have been working extremely hard since the abduction to find Anastasia in the West of Europe.

We are also trying to open the door through talks with Anastasia's father to continue his relationship with Anastasia as we have always believed it's in every child's best interest to have both parents in their lives 'when appropriate'.

For health reasons Anastasia will be taken to the hospital to be examined to make sure she is healthy and free to go home.

Welcome home little princess.

Posted at request of client.

Welcome back to our CEO Adam Whittington who negotiated the final stage with the abductor.

Sabotaged Lebanon recovery

It's a long one but anyone who has followed the Lebanon sabotaged recovery might find this interesting....
Sometimes CARI deals with abductions where the parent who abducted the children has serious issues. That is unfortunately the case in our Sabotaged job in Lebanon.

Firstly we are extremely happy to report that as of now all people involved in the recovery are out of prison. Why it took so long to have some released only Ali Elamine can answer that with his corrupt friends and family.
Now all are out we are sharing with you all just what has been happening at the direction of this evil manipulating compulsive liar of a parent. As our CEO stated on the Alan Jones radio show two small children are being held in Lebanon against their will. They do NOT want to be there and want to return home to Australia. They are clearly also victims of PAS - Parental Alienation Syndrome another form of child abuse. Those are two facts in this case that can't be disputed.

With Mr. Elamine giving instructions (he for some reason gets others to do his dirty work) threats were made over the phone a number of weeks ago to CARI's lawyers office in Beirut and we quote "if Adam or you (lawyers) try and get Khaled and Mohammed released from prison we will blow your office up". A police report has been filed in Lebanon.

With the instructions from Mr Elamine and his brother Wissam, resident in Dubai, Contact was made to CARI by Matt Ryan Garnsey (also funny enough founder and producer of the series Here come the Habibs aired by none other then wait for it.......CHANNEL 9!!!) advising CARI to contact him as he could help with our CEO being detained in Lebanon.

Once contact was made with Mr Ryan Garnsey, he then passed us onto Elie Boustani, a Sydney resident claiming to be in close contact with both Ali & Wisssam Elamine (a fact that we verified as being true and correct). Whilst our CEO was imprisoned in Lebanon, Mr Boustani proceeded to make continuous contact with CARI, friends and even our CEO's wife offering "to help".

How was he going to help you ask? Working in collaboration with the Elamine brothers, he demanded a payment from our CEO's family that was almost double of that Channel 9 paid out to the Elamine family to secure their release. Of course this extortion demand was replied to with a response that there was no way that kind of money they were seeking could ever be raised.
So Mr Boustani came back with another demand for consideration. He demanded the ability to negotiate a media deal with the Australian media and all funds secured from his negotiations would go straight to the pockets of Mr Boustani and the Elamine brothers AND a payment would still be required to secure our CEO's release but would be reduced as a "media deal" would satisfy their greed.
So if our CEO's family and friends agreed to these terms and made these extortion payments what were they getting in return? The release of our CEO and his colleagues from prison
What was the risk if these payments were not made? Our CEO's family were threatened that the Elamine family were so powerful in Lebanon that he would be incarcerated in Lebanon for the next 20 years.
Family and friends consulted with our CEO in prison and he was adamant that not one dollar would ever be paid for extortion and threats against him and his family.
Thankfully through the skill ful and strategic legal arguments of the Lebanese legal team, truth and integrity won out and all parties involved are now at home with their families except for one, Sally Faulkner, who because of the evil and calculating actions of some is now estranged from her beloved children.
Did you ever ask yourself why our CEO was repeatedly denied bail? This was because influence was placed on the judges and the system to keep him detained in the hope of another pay day since $500K is simply not enough.
Did you ever ask yourself why there was never any public comments made in regards to the Elamine family from family, friends and supporters of our CEO? Because they lived in a constant state of fear of the power these people claimed to have over the judicial system with their connections to Hezbollah and the consequences that could face our CEO in the Lebanese dungeons.
Upon our CEO's release from prison, 1 hour before he was due to leave Lebanon he was advised a travel ban had been placed on him through the civil courts.

Ali Elamine placed this order on our CEO to prevent him leaving Lebanon as he claimed in his pleadings "he had not received any compensation", yes he had already conveniently forgot to mention that he had already received $500K from Channel 9, an unprecedented amount of compensation ever paid in Lebanon.

So again Mr Elamine was manipulating the judicial system in a last ditch effort to procure more funds. Our CEO was hidden in a safe house for his own safety whilst the matter was dealt with in a trail. The travel ban was immediately lifted in the presence of Australian Embassy officials as soon as our CEO's legal team produced Channel 9's compensation cheque which interestingly carried the wording "For the release of the working team". Mr Elamine when confronted by the cheque told the judge, "Yes I received this money but I gave it all to charities". The judge ordered Mr Elamine out of his courtroom. And this is a man who tells people he and his family run Lebanon.

So as a picture tells a thousand words we have included some screen shots of these extortion messages as well as the picture of the infamous cheque (you know the one that Ali Elamine declared to the Australian media he never received????). In the screen shots you will also see that Mr Boustani also made a new and interesting acquaintance with the initials CC. These screenshots were also accompanied by many phone calls that would detail the deals on the table to ensure our CEO was left to rot in Lebanon for the next 20 years if we did not comply.

Not only did our CEO and his family and friends have to endure the nightmare of the conditions he was detained in, the knowledge that our CEO had been intentionally set up to be arrested in this operation in a series of evil events outside of his control, the systematic barrage of defamatory statements in the media by a competitor and the fact that he was thrown under the bus and left to rot by channel 9, they also had to endure repeated extortion and threats during this whole time.
We as well as authorities and our legal team in Australia who are dealing with a large defamation lawsuit against this parasite and some journalists who think it's ok to write defamatory articles using a source like CC, are aware of a CARI fb hate page which has been created to defame CARI and our CEO with fabricated lies and that the same evil person who sabotaged our Lebanon recovery is in cahoots with Mr Boustani and the Elamine family trying their best to stop CARI telling the truth. After we post on our social media this little childish gang fabricates our posts and pictures in order to manipulate people. One trick they use on their hate pages is to drop peoples names in a tone to make those reading their garbage believe they are being contacted by these names. We ask all our followers not to take any notice of the defamatory comments and posts on the CARI hate page.

We have recently been alerted to Mr Boustani, clearly disillusioned that he was never to make profits from this trauma, sending messages of defamation to our CEO's family, friends and supporters where he demonstrated a skill of communicating with emojis (see attached screenshot). We apologise to anyone that has received these vile messages and request that you delete these and block the sender so that you are not subjected to further harassment.

We now hope that one day soon Mr Elamine sees the irreparable damage that he is doing to his two precious children and allows them to have a relationship with their mother, although judging by his actions over the last five months we are not optimistic.

Attached is evidence of the above messages sent by Elie Boustani to a member of the bring skippy home page who Mr Boustani is now also defaming over social media. Also attached is the $500,000 cheque Ali Elamine never received (cheque is from C9 lawyer in Lebanon to Mr Elamine's lawyer).

One of the most interesting screenshots attached is the one where Elie is telling our person that CC called Mr Elamine and threatened him. Now ask yourself WHY would CC call Elamine at the beginning and threaten the abducting father.......might have something to do with an article being printed in the media with CC's name being mentioned as possibly being indicted by the judge and CC was trying to cover himself after the two emails he sent the father which gave everyone up....
Stay tuned more truths to follow..... if you think this is all we have on these muppets you're mistaken! You can also follow our blog which will have more facts and evidence associated with the sabotaged recovery in Lebanon.

And why have the media not been onto this information? Because this is the first time we have put this out, it's part of an ongoing investigation, it's part of a defamation lawsuit and simply because of the many false articles written by many journalists at the beginning who used CC as their one and only source we do not trust media. As simple as that.........so we will put out the facts and evidence about the sabotaged recovery when and how we see fit to expose the truth and those involved NOT the media who do nothing but twist and turn facts to get a great story.

Sorry it's long but there is so much people do not know about what and how things happened in Lebanon. Please share this around as this little gang needs exposing for everything they have and are continuing to do.

Parental Child Abduction Philippines

On the 17^th March 2016, the Philippines announced their accession to the Hague Convention of 25 October 1980 on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. As of March 2016, 94 states are party to the convention.

The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction’s mission is to protect the world’s most vulnerable citizens, its children, from the harmful effects of international parental child abduction, by securing the prompt return of a child who has been abducted from or retained outside their country of habitual residence, in violation of custodial rights. The reality though is not so straight forward and the return rate of abducted children around the world using the convention is alarmingly very low. Many factors contribute to this dismal return rate including but not limited to corruption, loop-holes in the convention, lack of knowledge by judicial systems, and abductors ignoring rulings.

In the last four years, Singapore, Morocco, Trinidad and Tobago and South Korea joined the convention. Japan the infamous ‘black’ hole of Parental Child Abduction became a treaty partner in February 2014 but still struggles to comply with the convention leaving hundreds of foreign parents still victims to the Japanese and their one sided failed family court system.

It is no longer unusual to know an aunt, neighbour, friend, colleague, uncle, sister, or cousin who has had a child abducted to a foreign country. If you do know someone, our next question may be difficult. Did that child ever return from the Philippines? The reality is that since the Philippines is not a party to the Convention, it is not uncommon for abduction cases to remain unresolved for years, resulting in an often prolonged and painful separation between children and their parents. And vice-versa for Philippine citizen parents who currently have limited remedies to seek the return of their children from abroad; this is why joining the Convention now is of the utmost importance.

But will the Philippines be another Hague Convention signatory country that is just signing to please the international community? Will the Philippines be another Japan, Poland, Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Denmark, Ukraine……and many other signatories that do not adhere to the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abductions? Time will only tell but from CARI’s experience working in this field for almost 17 years, we highly doubt the Philippines will comply and return abducted and retained foreign children back home. As it stands the Philippines has a shocking return rate in fact CARI has not heard of one child being returned legally through the courts.

Even powerful authorities such as the FBI are powerless to intervene on foreign soil and with the Philippines having no extradition agreements with most countries there is nothing left-behind parents can do even if their home countries or Interpol issues arrest warrants. It’s just another useless piece of paper and one that abducting parents often laugh at. Something CARI has noticed working in the Philippines often is the lack of protection of rights and well-being of abducted children. The Philippines government really needs to help protect abducted children but when a government can’t look after the well-being of their own children; foreign abducted children will be treated no differently.

Child sexual exploitation thrives in the Philippines with young children on offer for sex by gangs and pimps all over the country and usually in your face for all to see. This is also extremely concerning for the left behind parent as CARI has seen 2 cases we have dealt with where the abducted child being offered or about to be sold off due to severe poverty by the abducting parent and their families.

Corruption thrives in every department including the judicial system in the Philippines and many lawyers are the biggest thieves. DO NOT contact any Mr or Mrs Lawyer in the Philippines. Make sure you deal with an experienced lawyer who has dealt with other IPCA cases. You get the wrong lawyer and you’ll be paying more money and waste more time then hiring an experience more expensive lawyer.

The Philippines have many unsolved and on-going Parental Abduction cases some ongoing for over 10 years with no sight of a result.

As it stands the future for abducted children taken to the Philippines will be a massive battle with no hope of help to return to their habitual residence. We hope the Philippines government, system, courts and judges prove us wrong but the reality is……..they will not!

If you have had your children abducted to the Philippines please contact CARI for advice and assistance.

ITV UK Abducted documentary

For all those who have not seen the documentary 'Abducted' outside the UK, this is for you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc2qBGD1DsI

Watch and see just how bad, 'The Hague Convention' is failing parents and their abducted children.

Watch the UK government tell a heartbroken mother to write a letter to get her child back......what a joke!

Governments do not care for these children and absolutely no one helps the left behind parents. This is why CARI has a waiting period for any new clients wanting our help....
What you do not see in this documentary, is the reason why the 3 Polish high court judges took only 30 minutes to rule, Crystal must be returned immediately back to her father.

We will reveal that reason in a new video we will shortly publish. It's something the mother has been hiding due to legal reasons, hence it's not in this ITV documentary, but now we can announce the horrible and shocking reasons CARI treated this recovery as urgent.

WARNING......PLEASE NOTE: It's been brought to our attention since the documentary aired on UK TV, there are two frauds telling parents they are associated with CARI.

CARI has not in 16 years, and will not contact or approach any left behind parent.
CARI has one contact number +46707385598, for inquiries
CARI has one email for inquiries info@childabductionrecovery.com

All new clients go through the initial process, with one and only one of our Managing Directors, Adam Whittington.

If you have been approached by anyone with different details then above, it's NOT CARI.
We ask any left behind parent or victim, not to post about your situation on our social media for all the see. This is the way frauds, which we have posted on in the past, approach and target their next victim to scam. These frauds monitor our social media more then we do.........

Please send a private message if you wish to contact CARI.

Father reunited with his son after 16 months apart

Say hello to Justin.....reunited today by a team from CARI.

 

 16 months go Justin was illegally abducted and disappeared for 4 months off the grid. CARI has been working this case for 13 months now, travelling half way around the globe searching, with the assistance of local authorities and today, everyone's hard, frustrating efforts paid off.

Justin's family thought they would never see him again... as most authorities they approached wouldn't help, even with all the court orders. Non enforcement, again showing its ugly head in this case.

To say Justin 's father and family are happy is an understatement. A big part is going on right now......

It's been a very tough job for CARI operatives pushing our operatives to their best, but as in all our past and current jobs CARI never ever gives up until we succeed, in returning these innocent children home safely.

This is another abductor who thought she could take matters into her own hands and take off after courts ruled the immediate return of Justin, ignoring the authorities and courts time after time. This innocent child was used again and again like a tool.

Justin has not lived a day like a normal young boy should be living since his abduction instead, living like a fugitive avoiding authorities.

We are also happy to say that, the abductor and a family member who assisted in this abduction are being held by police with the hope of being charged for illegal kidnapping. We would like to thank all the authorities, Justin's embassy and our contacts involved in assisting CARI in this recovery. It was truely a great team effort.....

Welcome to CARI's family Justin......
As you can see Justin missed his daddy very much. To hear Justin's first words, "Daddy daddy", when they were reunited.....priceless, and why CARI operatives spend more time away from our own families to help these abducted children get home safely.

Posted at request of client. (Some details in the abduction have not been disclosed at request of investigating officers)

Turkey - International Parental Child Abduction

https://childabductionrecovery.wordpress.com/2015/02/16/turkey-international-parental-child-abduction/

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 4^th 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.

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.”
(source: J. D. Morey a US lawyer concentrating on International family law issues)
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

CARI recovers UK child when no one would.....

Just over 12 months ago a team from CARI was asked to help a UK mother who was desperate to get her little boy home after he was illegally retained and held in Turkey. The mother fought long and hard through the courts and eventually won a …Hague ruling in Turkey for the return of her son to the UK. The Judge gave the father 7 days to return the child, 18 months later with her son still on the run close to the Syrian border and help from no one, CARI agreed to help. A classic case, like so many others CARI deals with, where the Hague Convention does not and will not be enforced.

Through Abducted Angels Charity in the UK the mother was put in touch with CARI. At the request of the British Embassy in Istanbul CARI was asked to attend the British Embassy for a meeting with the UK Consular on how they could assist CARI in the recovery of the child. At the conclusion of a very positive meeting it was determined that CARI operatives would work side by side with the British Consular, Gaziantep Governor’s office, a high court Judge in Ankara, Akinci law firm (K, you are a star and we love working with you!) and a specialist police unit.

Little Amani Khansia was recovered by CARI operatives with the assistance of the police and governor’s office in Gaziantep, Turkey in a very successful operation.
Move the clock forward 12 months and little Amani is doing absolutely amazing and loving every day of his new life with his mother and family in the UK. A little football star in the making!!!
A positive and negative to come out of this sad story……..

A big compliment should go to the British Embassy in Istanbul, who even after receiving a letter from their slack colleagues in the London office requesting them not to assist in any recovery, stood their ground and did what was the correct thing to do, HELP in all legal ways possible!! This British Embassy in Istanbul is the only UK Embassy in our 14 years’ experience dealing with abducted children who went over and above their duty to assist this UK child. Other UK Embassy staff around the world should take note of this instead of listening to a couple of the civil servants in the London office who have shown time and time again they have no interest in helping UK parents (just speak to any UK parent who has dealt with the London office). If Nicole from the Istanbul Embassy was to be made head of the FCO unit in London there would be many more UK children returning. That’s a fact. To our good friends at Gazientep Police and Turkish immigration it was a pleasure like always. Great job guys!
There needs to be an enquiry into the neglect of duties by these staff in the London office who seem only interested in making it difficult for parents to get their children home and contacting the media to down grade CARI. If they spent the same amount of time trying to help UK children compared to finding out about CARI and employing their behind the scenes school yard bully tactics ‘trying’ to make things difficult for some of our recoveries, then there would be a lot more UK children being returned home through the enforcement of Hague Convention rulings. Other country’s Embassies go out of their way to assist CARI and their citizen’s getting home. We put it down to just a couple of individuals who are the thorn in parent’s thigh.

We won’t mention too many of the details yet in the recovery of a 14 year old boy where the FCO instructed UK Border Force officers in Calais to interrogate this boy at 3am refusing to let him have an appropriate adult or lawyer present. CARI was lucky enough to have journalists from a UK newspaper present to witness first-hand what is going on and see the devastation coursed by Border Force officers to the boy. To see the boy sitting looking through the window in the interview door crying in desperation for someone to help him, will live with us for a long time to come. We look forward to the news article.

 The truth is there are a couple of civil servants at the FCO who do not like the truth getting out there.
Amani’s mother should be an inspiration for all other victim parents to never give up! She went through hell and back including having to deal with a few UK individuals who did and are still harassing, abusing and slandering this mother all because this mother spoke out about the truth of being conned out of £10,000 by a female in the UK who said she would get her son home.
CARI works in many countries around the world and we have to be honest the UK Child Abduction scene is like no other. In other countries everybody assists and supports each other but not in the UK where everyone seems to want to make a name for themselves and throw garbage on one another.
There are individuals who attack parents for no reason opening fake Facebook pages and profiles to slander this mother and others including CARI in an attempt to cause damage to peoples reputation. There is so much rubbish going on behind the scenes of Child Abduction in the UK with people attacking others including charities who try and help parents, it is sickening. It’s the same group of individuals who are amusing themselves with a smear campaign against CARI (we guess when you’re on top of your field your competitors will do anything to try and take you down).
We will not mention names of those involved at the moment as we are not the type of guys to get involved in such childish behavior and we will not lower to their level, but if it continues we will expose every single name and company who is behind the smear campaign on our social media with facts and evidence.

In the pictures; Mother and son leaving Turkey for the last time………Little Amani loving the chocolate mouse on his first day with his mum……and our friends at Police immigration wanting to get into a picture as they were very proud to of been able to assist little Amani get home….
