Aditya Chandran fate decided in an American court

Seven years old NRI child Aditya, caught in a bitter custody battle, will now have his fate decided in an American court.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday directed the seven-year-old NRI child Aditya to be sent to USA within 15 days and let the American court decide on his custody.

The NRI couple was separated in America and a court there gave joint custody of the child. But the mother took the child to India in 2007 and violated the American court order.

The Supreme Court directed Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to find the child after the husband approached the apex court. Two weeks ago CBI found the mother and child at Chennai and produced them in the court. Aditya was studying in a school at Chennai.

The child and mother will have to reach US within the specified time frame and the travel expenses and stay will be borne by the father. The Supreme Court has warned the mother, Vijayshree, that if she does not comply with the ruling, the court will grant Aditya’s custody to his father.

During the last hearing, the apex court had said the welfare of the child was important and wanted parents to come to a solution.

Sobbing outside the Supreme Court, Vijayshree said, “We have tried our best. We will follow the Supreme Court order. But facts from our side didn’t come out.”

Reacting to the court order, Aditya’s father said, “I am happy that the Supreme Court recognised a father’s rights. My son has been tutored by her mother to say things against me in court.”

The apex court also said that all the cases against the mother where warrants have been issued would be withdrawn.

  1. T thank all those helped me in rescuing Aditya. I am also very thankful to the judgment of the Supreme Court of India on Aditya case, rendering justice.

    Child rights activists are very much concerned about the welfare of abused children in India, and I welcome their comments on Aditya’s case. I thank Kumar Jaghirdar of CRISP india for he unrelenting desire to help children longing to be with both parents.

    Please review the news article published in Mail Today dated Nov 21, 2009, page 12. I am pleased to see that NGO’s like National Commission for Protection of Child Rights, India Alliance for Child Rights, and HAQ Centre for Child Rights are doing everything possible to bring the unfortunate situation stated below out in the open and help children of India, some of whom are abused and underprivileged.

    I would like to point out certain misconceptions and misunderstanding in the media and public at large about Aditya’s case. Fortunately, Aditya’s case is over, but for thousands of other children in his situation, the nightmare continues.

    The article says that My son, Aditya Chandran was allowed to voice his opinion in front of the 3-judge panel of Honourable Justices Tarun Chatterjee, R.M. Lodha and Dr. B.S.Chauhan on November 10 and again on November 12th. I was present in the court on those days, so are the counsels, newspaper reporters and other court officers.

    Aditya told the 3-judge panel, that…”My father is a bad man..” on November 10, 2009 and again on November 12th he said “he likes India”. Now the question is, why did he utter such appalling words?

    When Aditya made those statements, Honourable Justice Tarun Chatterjee and other Justices were visibly displeased, and in no uncertain terms told the counsels for Vijayasree that they even had the courage to put up poor Aditya in front the judges, as he was thoroughly coached by his mother.

    Please note that Vijayasree Voora, who is a fugitive of the law, dodged police from numerous Indian states, and was finally secured by the CBI on October 24, 2009 and presented in Supreme Court of India. During this 30 month ordeal, she ran all over India with no regard for the safety and security of Aditya. Further during that period, Vijayasree has been coaching Aditya that….”see your father does not love you, he didn’t even come to see you…”. She had been making these false statements to Aditya on his birthdays and other religious holidays. Unfortunately Aditya didn’t have any independent confirmation of any of the statements made to him by his mother, as he could not contact me as I was completely cut off from his life by his mother.

    It has been concluded by the psychologists that poisoning the mind of a young child by one parent against the other left out parent is one of the most brutal form of child abuse. It is very unfortunate that Aditya had to undergo this type of treatment in his own mother’s hands for the past 30 months.

    All allegations levelled against me by Vijayasree Voora has be thoroughly investigated by the NY family court in Albany NY. After investigating the abuse allegations, the supreme Court of India sided with the NY family court. The 3-judge panel of the Supreme court of India has declared that all allegations by Vijayasree against me are hollow and without any substance (Page 31, Judgement for Writ Petition CRL No. 112/2009 dated November 17, 2009). Two different supreme courts in two different countries has declared that all allegations of Vijayasree against me are false and baseless. One must give proper respect to the Supreme Court honourable Judges, and not upset and question the 3-judge panel decision from the highest court of the land after thorough deliberations.

    A mother who is willing to poison the mind of a very young child is not in the best interest of the future of the child. This is clear from the verdict given by the Supreme Court of India. Vijayasree is the one responsible for abusing the child by not having him stability of school and enjoy fellowship of other children (Page 33 or the Supreme Court Judgement for Writ Petition CRL No. 112/2007). The supreme court has also concluded, based upon the behaviour of the mother, that …”there is nothing on record which may even remotely suggest that it would be harmful for the child to be returned to his native country…” (Page 32, Judgement for Writ Petition CRL No. 112/2009 dated November 17, 2009)

    While Aditya is safe now, I am very much concerned about thousands of Indian Children, whose young minds are poisoned by custodial parent against the other non-custodial parent. Most of these cases, the child is completely cut off from the other parent, and love and affection from the non-custodial parent are with held. I am hoping the Child Rights activists bring an end to this brutal form of child abuse happening every day in India.

    I am pleased that Mail Today has started a healthy arguments about right of children of India to be heard in the Supreme Court of India. It is also clear that honourable justices of the court are not interested in hearing from children who are coached and poisoned by their mother (or father) against the other parent. This is a good day for all those children who deserve affection and love from both parents.

    I love my son Aditya, and I am looking forward to spend time with my beloved son. I am hoping that he will grow up to be a very happy and healthy individual and an outstanding citizen. God bless Aditya.
    Sincerely, Dr. V. Ravi Chandran, Father of Aditya Chandran.
