Prague to stage protest against Norwegian Barnevernet on 16 Jan

A demonstration against the taking of children away from their families practised by the Norwegian social office Barnevernet is scheduled in Prague for January 16 as one in a series of similar events that was launched in Oslo on Tuesday. The Prague protest will be staged in connection with the case of the Michalak family, from whom the Norwegian authority took away two sons, now ten and six years old, based on a suspicion of abuse and neglected care, which was not confirmed, however.
