"Tokyo: Three busloads of children. Some laugh; others cry. One likes blowing
bubbles in the garden in summer; others prefer making castles in the sand. All
of them have disappeared from their Australian parents’ lives.
In the dead of night, at daybreak or after school, 82 Australian children have
been snatched by Japanese partners since 2004, never to see their Australian
parent again.
Now an investigation by
The Sydney Morning Herald,
The Age and
60 Minutes
can reveal that this is just the start of a system of parental abduction that
has driven dozens of parents to breaking point, pushed children into
psychiatric wards and torn families apart. Their pleas have fallen on deaf
ears, as Japanese police repeatedly ignore Interpol missing person notices and
the justice system refuses to enforce court orders guaranteeing parents access
to their children."
