In Hrodna, a child with disabilities born in 2011 has been removed from his family after prosecutors ordered a second review of his living conditions and care. Following an additional assessment, the court ruled that the boy should be placed in a specialised institution for children with disabilities.<\/p>\n

The social investigation was prompted by reports of an unsafe family environment. The child has been assessed as having a Category 4 loss of health. His mother has a Group II disability related to a mental health condition, while his father did not live with the family and refused to take part in raising or caring for his son.<\/p>\n

As the Prosecutor General’s Office said<\/a>, the investigation found that the woman was unable to provide the child with the necessary care, including adequate nutrition, hygiene, a proper daily routine and timely access to medical assistance. It also found that she had difficulty responding to dangerous situations and managing money.<\/p>\n

The initial social investigation did not identify the child as being in a socially dangerous situation. However, no assessment was made of whether the mother’s mental condition enabled or prevented her from fulfilling her parental responsibilities.<\/p>\n

After the prosecutor’s intervention, the educational institution responsible for the case conducted a second review of the family’s living conditions. In addition, a medical advisory commission concluded that the mother’s health condition prevented her from carrying out her parental duties.<\/p>\n

Following the second review, the local education department, acting as the guardianship authority, filed a lawsuit seeking to terminate the father’s parental rights and to remove the child from the mother’s care without depriving her of parental rights.<\/p>\n

The Kastrychnitski District Court of Hrodna granted the claim. The ruling has entered into legal force.<\/p>\n

The boy is now living in a specialised institution for children with disabilities.<\/p>\n

“He is receiving appropriate care and special attention is being paid to his development,”<\/i><\/em> the Prosecutor General’s Office said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
