A Japanese baby born to a surrogate Indian mother faces anuncertain future after her parents divorced. Anjana Pasrichareports from New Delhi on the legal
hassles that confront the 12-day-old girl and her father.
The Japanese baby was born in Western Gujarat state on July 25 to asurrogate Indian mother. Under normal circumstances she would havebeen adopted by her biological parents as required under Indianlaw, and taken away by them.
But the little girl, named Manji, has not been able to make thejourney home with her parents. Instead she has landed in a hospitalin another Indian city, Jaipur, where her paternal grandmother ishelping doctors look after her.
The reason: Her biological parents divorced in the months aftersigning a surrogacy agreement. The mother, according to reports,does not want the baby.
Manji's father, Ikufumi Yamada, say he wanted to take custody ofthe child after she was born, but was unable to do so.
Sadhna Arya, a gynecologist at the Arya hospital in Jaipur wherethe baby is kept, explains why."When he came here, single parent, to claim the child, they did notgive the child to the father. The father could not get thepassport, because the passport of a neonate, that is a new bornchild is made on the mother's passport. Since there was no mother,they could not give her a passport," said Arya.
An Indian friend of the baby's father helped bring her to Jaipur,where she was admitted to the Arya hospital after developing aninfection.
But doctors at the hospital say they don't know where she will gonext, or how she will leave India. Lawyers say a major legalcomplication confronting the father is an Indian
law that prohibits single men from adopting children.
