Why wasn't the name of the adoptive family published? If the child was kidnapped and it's known where the child went, what is the problem here?
Research of this issue was done by an Adoptee !

It is a pity that most adoption scandals appearing last decades happens because adoptees are working on the cases. Journalist most times forget that they got the information from Adoptees who are working on the cases for years. Just like this one. Arun Dohle from Germany adopted from India did many years research in the field and discovered and collected all the information to reveal the Indian Adoption Scandal. His research was published in the US Cumberland Law Review and signaled journalist in India to take up this topic. All credits should go to him instead of Scott Carney. It is really outrageous that Scott Carney does not mention him at all in his article.
