Dear members of the Commission,
We urge you to order the return of Megan Saint Clare Pavey (DOB 11/04/2012) (citizen of the United Kingdom and Bulgaria) to her family – her birth mother Elisaveta Popova and her grandparents Gancho Popov and Mariyka Popova , citizens of Republic of Bulgaria.
Every child has the right to live and grow up with his/her closest relatives and to be given quiet and secure environment for living and developing. UK Authorities violated that right, the way they violated our human rights and rights of EU citizens.
We, the grandparents of Megan submitted a declaration before the court in UK, that we have the sincere desire to take care of our granddaughter. We also submitted an application to adopt her through the Ministry of Justice in London. Both documents have not been reviewed by the relevant authorities nor have we been informed about their status. In the meantime our granddaughter has been placed with another family. We haven’t seen her since!!! Here you have the facts in support of our petition and in support of the argument that the UK authorities violated our human rights:
1. UK Authorities violated Art. 6 and Art.24 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU by placing us – Elisaveta and Mariyka, together with the newborn Megan in the household of a potentially aggressive person, exposing us to a clear threat.
2. UK Authorities violated Art. 6 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU by obliging me, the grandmother of Megan, to sign an agreement, that I will not leave the boundaries of UK, while I take care of Megan and depriving me from my basic right of mobility and freedom.
3. UK Authorities violated Art. 6 and Art.47 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU, by placing my granddaughter Megan Saint Clair Pavey in the household of a potentially aggressive person and by preparing a social assessment for me, her grandmother, where I am appointed as a person responsible for her protection, without conducting all relevant checks necessary to prove,that I am a trustworthy and capable of protecting Megan and by presenting this assessment before the court authorities in UK
4. UK Authorities violated Art. 21 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU, by not settling the rights of personal relationship between Megan and us, her family, during the entire period of the court proceedings and after that.
5. UK Authorities violated Art. 20 and Art.47 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU, by preparing an unlawful social assessment for our family in Bulgaria, without the consent of the Bulgarian authorities and without informing us for its content and conclusions and by not providing translation and a legal adviser/ lawyer for me during the court hearings in January 2013 the UK, authorities violated my right to fair trial.
6. UK Authorities violated Art. 21 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU by limiting our contact with Megan from January to August 2013 and in such way depriving her from keeping her national and ethnical identity.
7. UK Authorities violated Art. 20 and Art.47 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of EU, by not informing us that I, Megan’s mother have the right to prepare and submit an independent plan to take care of Megan.
8. Article 8: The right to respect for private and family life, for home and correspondence from Children and the Human Rights Act1998 is in breach .-'You should not be taken away from your family unless it is for your own good – if, for example, your family is hurting you.' Megan's mother and her grandparents have never hurt Megan, or exposed her to any harm . We believe that Megan is likely to suffer due to mother's and families absence is her life.
We request for you to be invited to the hearing of our petition, before the Petition Commission within the European Union. We request for our petition to be reviewed together with the petitions of Laila Brice and Mackenzie Friends scheduled for March 19/03/2014.

I spend my nights rereading the memories of my granddaughter and wondering how the authorities can justify keeping us apart for this long. We are working behind the scenes to gather more legal documentation while preparing for the next round of correspondence with the Commission.

My family is still waiting for a single word about Megan while the authorities remain silent. Please push this link out to your own networks right now so we can hit that one thousand mark and force them to pay attention to our struggle.

My family is still waiting for a single answer while Megan remains separated from us. Reaching one hundred signatures will force them to acknowledge that people are watching this injustice. Please get this in front of anyone who will read it right now.

As the parent of an adopted child, I can say that it is always better for a child to be with her biological family if it is at all possible. It is a wound that never closes.
Megan must live with her closest people. Her mother is the best perdon who would care for her always for her food. The authoritues must not make decisions based upon any occasional observation.
Please show justice in this heavily misunderstood case. The UK law is designed well to protect the welfare of the child, but there have been a few errors resulting from misunderstandings and officers not performing their duties. There is no logical reason for Megan to be adopted by strangers when she has loving grandparents and a mother!
The Social Care system in the UK is corrupt, there are financial incentives for local authorities to snatch children for forced adoption and this is unacceptable!
Please, be open minded about this case. Do not let stereotypical thinking about Eastern Europeans get in the way of the most natural bond between a mother and her child.
There aren't reasons for this anti-humanity act.

Давам гласа си в подкрепа на Ели и Меган - при здрава, работеща и свободна майка, която иска да си гледа детето е противозаконно то да се гледа от чужди хора. Това е противоречие с всички възможни закони и с природния закон - майка и дете да са заедно. Успех!
