MADONNA MALAWI ADOPTION ‘ILLEGAL’

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:57 pm

LATEST: Charity workers in Malawi are seeking a court injunction to halt pop queen MADONNA’s bid to adopt a baby boy, claiming the move is illegal.
The Human Rights Consultative Committee (HRCC) has ruled the adoption of one-year-old DAVID BANDA goes against state laws because Madonna is not a citizen of the African country.
HRCC chairman JUSTIN DZONZI says, "The laws of Malawi are clear that if one wants to adopt a child, one has to stay with the child for at least 18 months for assessment.
"If Madonna wants to adopt this baby she has to stay here." The MATERIAL GIRL and her husband GUY RITCHIE returned to the UK at the weekend (14-15OCT06), after being granted an interim court order approving the adoption.
Banda is still being looked after in the southern African country while passport and visa issues are dealt with.
