The Belgian authorities have geared up their investigation into the alleged kidnap of children of Democratic Republic of Congo for certain orphanages run in Belgian.

It was a European media that firstly exposed the adoption scandal. The media found that some of the children living in the Belgian orphanages were not actually orphans as their biological parents were alive in the country from where they were brought to the continent. The media also released a controversial statement of the biological parents of one of the DR Congo children living in Belgian as an orphan. As per the statement, the child was taken away to Europe in the pretext of a holiday camp. According to the statement, the parents were convinced that their child would be returned to them after that camp. The media reported that the child’s parents were extremely worried about their kid as those taken their child did not keep their assurances.

Recently, in the investigation launched by the Belgian authorities, it has been identified that the child mentioned in the media report was not the only victim. The authorities have secured information about at least fifteen children who were brought to the continent in the similar manner.

The authorities are planning to collect DNA samples from all those who were brought to the continent in the same period in which the identified victims were brought in.


Julienne Mpemba, a Belgian-Congolese lawyer, is the prime suspect in the case. The lawyer denies all allegations of wrongdoings.

Families fleeing fighting between the DR Congo army and rebels walk toward the eastern city of Goma.

DR Congo, marred by the civil wars and diseases, is where the majority of African orphans live. A considerable number of African orphans live in Europe are from this country.

At this moment, it remains unclear why children are kidnapped from DR Congo.

A two-year-old boy, who accidentally fell into a borehole in Malaga, has been found dead. The rescue team, who has tried everything possible to rescue the kid, has found it hard to believe that their efforts have not succeeded.

The accident happened when the boy and his family reached a plantation area in Malaga as part of their weekend trip. The boy went missing shortly after they reached the spot, where the 100 meters deep and only 25 cm wide borehole is located. At the initial stage, the family was unaware that there was a borehole in the region and their kid fell into it. It was a local officer who recognised the presence of the kid inside the hole. As soon as the presence of the kid was proved, every concerned department was alarmed. And, all entered into action within no time.

The rescue officials dug a parallel tunnel near the hole as part of their plan to rescue the kid. That tunnel was joined with the borehole with a horizontal hole.

It is evaluated that some miscalculations occurred in the initial stage of the planning of the rescue operation has contributed heavily to its failure.

A social group alleges that boreholes are very common in this part of the world. As per its opinion, it is a huge threat to the human life. It demands that a law should be formed to punish all irresponsible borehole owners.

Interestingly, the owner of the property where the borehole that caused accident is situated has informed the authorities that he was not aware of the existence of such a hole in his property.

It is not the first time the kid’s family has suffered the heat of tragedy; one of the kid’s brothers died of heart disease several years ago when he was just less than three years old.

The European Court of Human Rights has ordered the Italian government to pay a huge sum of 18,400 Euro as compensation to Amanda Knox, the US citizen mistakenly arrested for the murder of her collage mate Meredith Kercher with whom she shared her room when she reached Italy as part of a student exchange program several years ago.

The court has not been completely convinced that she suffered ill-treatment when she was in the custody of Italian police, but it has found that the lady was not allowed to contact her lawyer and not granted the service of an interpreter.

Her main allegation is that she was badly beaten by the police officials in the initial days of the interrogation and was subjected to extreme mental and physical stress.

During the course of the trial, the case has gone through several twists and turns: initially, she was convicted; while she was servicing her third year in prison, she was acquitted and deported to her home country; within a year post her acquittal, a higher court found her acquittal wrong; anyway, when the final judgment of the top court came in the year 2015, she was acquitted of all charges related to the murder.

It was a few months ago that she was allowed by the ECHR to approach them against Italy. Then, there was allegation that it was the pressure from the US that forced the court to accept the lady’s case against Italy.

Most US citizens consider her as the victim of the improper judicial system of Italy. The world media has closely followed each and every development in the case.

Meanwhile, the other part of the story is that the international interference has badly affected the case. Though a person has been arrested in connection with the case, the police have not found answers to all questions necessary to unfold the mystery of the case.

A Belarusian model, Nastya Rybka, who has offered to share the evidence of Russian collusion with Donald Trump’ election campaign which she has reportedly secured from her close friend who was a close friend of Russian industrialist Oleg Deripaska, has been forcefully dragged from the transit zone, where she has stepped down briefly to catch a connection flight during her trip to Minsk (to which she has been deported after she has been found guilty in the charge of prostitution in Thailand), by the Russian police to the Russian territory, and detained for the charges similar to those for which she has suffered jail sentence in the Asian country.


It is her lawyer who has publicised the details of the arrest. The information has been confirmed by many Russian media houses, which has shared the information in their twitter handles. Among the information shared by the lawyer, there is a video clip which shows how the lady has been treated by the Russian police. From the video, it can be easily understood that the lady has been subjected to ill treatment.


Anti-corruption blogger Alexei Navalny, who is the biggest critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, has shared the information with his followers.

There are allegations that it is the fear of the exposure of key information regarding the Russian collusion in the US election that has prompted the Russian government to take such a stiff action against the Belarusian. Many, including the lady’s lawyer, believe that it is an international scandal.
