Summary: Direct legal alert to the President of the Family Division regarding diplomatic breaches, contact obstruction, and unlawful post-EPO conduct.
I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four dual U.S.–U.K. citizen children were seized by Westminster Children’s Services and the Metropolitan Police with no safeguarding grounds presented. No legal documents were served in advance. Five officers stormed the family home. The children were not allowed to pack, retrieve asthma medication, or notify their mother—who remained unaware in her bedroom until after the seizure had occurred.
Despite the children’s U.S. citizenship, no consular notification was made prior to or after the EPO, in breach of Articles 36 and 37 of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
Breach of international law regarding consular protection
Procedural irregularities in the EPO enforcement
Punitive restrictions on contact and access to basic personal items
Deliberate obstruction of familial and legal communication
Use of children as leverage against legal resistance and public accountability
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the Family Division itself has now become entangled in the consequences of procedural diplomacy failure. Because no child’s access to their own mother should be made contingent upon her silence. And because any system that bypasses foreign protections and uses contact like a negotiation chip has lost sight of law.
This was not just poor safeguarding. It was cross-border negligence, clothed in bureaucratic costume.
IV. Violations
Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (Articles 36–37)
Children Act 1989 (Welfare of the Child)
Human Rights Act 1998 – Articles 6 (Fair Trial), 8 (Family Life), and 14 (Discrimination)
Data Protection Act 2018 – failure to notify or consult affected persons
V. SWANK’s Position
The President of the Family Division has been directly notified. We do not negotiate contact through silence. We do not surrender jurisdiction when our rights are bilateral. And we do not mistake procedural ambush for protective care.
This letter is now public. The court has been alerted. The Embassy is watching.
This is not a plea. It is a documented refusal.
