Begjæringen er stilet til: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioner and his wife are Indian nationals living in the UK. The petitioner claims that his two minor children were abusively taken away from their parents by the social services (the Local Authority) in 2015. Since then, the petitioner and his wife claim they were not allowed to see their children or speak to them on the phone. Meanwhile the petitioner’s wife, who was expecting their third child, left the UK, as she feared that the authorities could take her third child away if he was born in the UK. In February 2016, the family court authorised the Local Authority to place the petitioner’s children for adoption. The petitioner’s appeal against the family court’s decision was dismissed, and so was his attempt to bring the case to the UK Supreme Court. He submitted an application to the European Court for Human Rights based on Article 8 and 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which was declared inadmissible as the complaint had been submitted too late.The petitioner is asking the Parliament to intervene and help his children to be repatriated to their home country and reunited with their family.
