Im sticking my neck out here but what grounds do the police in Greece have for arresting the Gypsy couple who raised the blonde girl? Any one can see the lass isnt theirs. They claimed she was given as a baby by an eastern european woman. They even took the child to doctors for eye traetment. I hope those doctors come forward. Given the people trafficking taking place over there and here, its not surprising babies are born to mothers unable to keep them. Greece has a serious far right wing within the police and they would do anything to get rid of the Gypsies. I met a young Greek student who said the police are always arresting innocent Gypsies and charging them with trumped up crimes. The child is healthy and every witness tells the same story. So I hope they Roma councils across the world are onto this case, to make certain the couple are represented lawlfully. If not then the repercussions from this will reverberate throughout the entire Greek Gypsie and beyond. Theres a small human being hurting in this. This story is not new and even I get asked, did Gypsies and Tinkers steal babies? No, I answer, they had enough kids of their own to look after without adding another one but theyd never turn a desperate woman aside with no means to care for a baby. I know of a few people who were raised this way. Im told that my great grandparents raised two orphans. Im reminded of a Victorian lullaby sang to children, Hush ye, hush ye, the black Tinker winnae get ye.
