Formal statement repudiating the practice of forced removal by bureaucratic fiat and sustained indifference.
I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four clinically fragile children were extracted from their home by state actors wielding an Emergency Protection Order as both shield and cudgel. In the subsequent eight days, their mother was granted precisely zero details regarding their location, health, or psychological status. Contact was not merely denied; it was relegated to the realm of administrative afterthought.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
That a legal instrument designed for acute crisis was reimagined as a convenient mechanism for indefinite disappearance.
That medical and psychological continuity were treated as quaint notions rather than statutory imperatives.
That procedural dignity was supplanted by the unhurried spectacle of official silence.
That each day of separation inflicted compounding harm, meticulously ignored in service of bureaucratic comfort.
That Article 3 and Article 8 ECHR were cited only in the abstract, never honoured in practice.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because when public bodies behave as though accountability is optional and transparency a courtesy, documentation becomes the last jurisdictional safeguard. Because every instance of forced estrangement in procedural drag warrants its own archival indictment. Because polite euphemisms do not obscure the lived reality of state-imposed abandonment.
IV. Violations
Children Act 1989 (Section 34: Statutory duty to facilitate and promote contact)
Article 3 ECHR (Prohibition of degrading treatment—breached with habitual finesse)
Article 8 ECHR (Right to family life—curated into oblivion)
Equality Act 2010 (Failure to adjust for disability in proceedings)
V. SWANK’s Position
This was not safeguarding. It was bureaucratic sequestration performed with the aesthetic of solemn competence and the substance of indifference.
We do not accept the reduction of children’s welfare to an administrative inconvenience.
We will document every performance—relentlessly, elegantly, and with due contempt.
