The case of stolen children sold to foster parents abroad by a child adoption agency Malaysian Social Services is getting murkier. The parents of two children allegedly ’sold‘ to foster parents in Holland have revealed to TIMES NOW that they had received a letter after 12 years from their children that were abandoned at an orphanage in Netherlands. <\/p>\n
The revelation has come as a sharp contrast to the assurances given to them by the adoption agency — the Malaysian Social Services that their children were safe and with affluent families abroad.<\/p>\n
Many adoptions by foreigners through this agency between 1991 and 2002 have come under the scanner after allegations that children were ’stolen‘ from their parents and handed over adoptions ‚illegally‘.<\/p>\n
Though there are still no records as to how many children were kidnapped, the Central Bureau of Investigation and Tamil Nadu police had re-assured that biological parents – mostly slum – dwellers – that their children were safe with affluent families abroad.<\/p>\n
TIMES NOW tracked down two kids who were victim of the illegal adoption racket. These kids were given away in 1996 to a family in the Netherlands. But shockingly, the two children were forsaken by their foster family and put in Netherlands state orphanages.<\/p>\n
TIMES NOW is in possession of a letter written by 18-year-old Lisa on April 24, 2008, who was taken away from her mother when she was 6-years-old.<\/p>\n
The letter read: „Dear mother, I’m so touched to hear that you have been waiting for me all these years. I’m desperately waiting to see you again. We are no longer with our foster parents. Please send a photograph of yours. I love you very much and I’m sending you kisses. – From me and Kapil.“<\/p>\n
Both Lisa (18) and Kapil (17), children of an impoverished couple in Tirunelveli district of Tamil Nadu had been sent to foster parents in Netherlands. Their mother – Dekla was promised that they were leading comfortable lives there, till the children contacted their mother through a letter.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the letter, mother Dekla said, \u201cIt has been twelve years since they have been separated from us. We are waiting to see them. With the government’s help we want to see them at least once.“<\/p>\n
Another case of ‚illegal‘ adoption has been tracked down tot he United States of America, of an 11-year-old Subhash. He was allegedly stolen when he was a baby in 1999; and sold to a couple in the US by the Malaysian Social Service agency.<\/p>\n
Subhash’s father – Nageshwar Rao is now fighting a legal battle to get his son back.<\/p>\n
Earlier, TIMES NOW had reported about 14-year-old Zabeena, who was stolen when she was three -years-old and sent to Queensland in 1998, where she was adopted. Fatima – the mother of Zabeena had appealed to be re-united with her child, who was later traced to have been stolen for adoption by the Malaysian Social Service.
