German Father Continues His Legal Battle - India Surrogacy Update
The case in India over the German couples' twins continues:
"Jan Balaz, father of two twin babies born through surrogacy in Anand, has filed a contempt petition against the passport authorities for non-compliance with the order of the Gujarat High Court.
Balaz recently won a legal case against the Regional Passport Authority in getting the Indian passports of his children returned.
The division bench of the HC comprising Justices K S Radhakrishnan and A S Dave, in a landmark judgment on November 11, had conferred Indian citizenship on the two boys, as their surrogate mother is an Indian.
The court had ordered the passport authorities to return the Indian passports of the two children.
However, when Balaz, a German national, failed to get the passports of his sons back from the authorities till November 16, he filed a contempt petition against them through his lawyer, Dhaval Dave."
Let's all hope this turns out well.
