A Classic type of Internatioal Chid Abduction is conducted by one of the parents, Father, taking from the Mother.

In principle, The object of the Hague Convention is to secure the prompt return of Children wrongfuly removed or retained in any Contracting States. But, thd judicial authority(Court) of the requested State is not bound to order the child’s return when the person opposing that return establishes tha there is a grave risk that his or her return would expose the child to physical or psychological harm or otherwise place the child in an intolerable situation. The exceptions to return provied for under Arricle 13 sub-paragraph (b) of the Hague Convention must be interpreted restrctively. Only grave risks must be taken into consideration, excluding any grounds relating to the parents’ child-raising capacities, as the purpose of the Hague Convention is not to attribute parental authority.
