Karnataka Court Halts Deportation of Russian Woman's Children
A court in India stopped the government from sending a Russian woman's children back to their country.
The court made this decision because it wants to make sure the children are safe and that their rights are protected, as stated by the UN.
The government said the children don't have passports or other important papers to travel.
The court wants to learn more about the situation and has told the government to provide more information in two weeks.
The court also said that the children can't be sent away until the court makes a final decision after the next hearing in August.
Karnataka High Court temporarily halted the deportation of a Russian woman's children.
The court cited the UNCRC, emphasizing the children's best interests.
The children lack valid travel or identity documents, according to the ASG.
The court ordered respondents to submit a written affidavit and objections within two weeks.
Deportation plans are halted until the next hearing on August 18.
