Family proceedings – Orders in family proceedings. In proceedings between the mother and father, the Family Division made certain findings of fact. The children had been taken to England from Pakistan in both 2011 and 2012 because that was what the father and his family decided should happen. The removals were unilateral and thus unlawful actions with grave and long lasting consequences for the children's relationship with their mother. The mother cared deeply for them and was entirely committed to their welfare. Nevertheless, the children would not be restored to the habitation of their mother.
