Mother leaves child in Window of Life, father wants daughter back

The mother gave her daughter to the Window of Life. The father knew nothing about it. Now he wants to get 11-month-old Helenka back.

According to the “Goniec” portal, the 11-month-old girl ended up in one of the windows of life in Gdańsk some time ago. The girl's mother was supposed to have placed her there. The father assures that he had no idea about anything, and left his daughter in the care of her mother only for a short while. Now the man is fighting to get the child back.

The child ended up in the Window of Life in Gdańsk

The 11-month-old girl ended up in the Gdańsk Window of Life at the beginning of December. Helenka ended up in the Window of Life at the Single Mother's Home and the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Pregnancy in the Matemblewo district of Gdańsk. The circumstances of her abandonment there were particularly shocking.

The girl's father maintains that the child was left in the Window of Life without his knowledge or consent. The man fights to get his daughter back and convinces that he will not rest until he gets her back.

“On December 1st, I left my daughter in my wife's care for a while to take care of my own affairs. A few hours later, the child was placed in the window of life” – reports the man, quoted by the portal “Goniec”.

Mother gave child away, father wants her back

The father of the 11-month-old girl and her mother are currently in the process of divorce. According to him, the girl was in his care. He adds that after his daughter was placed in the Window of Life, he was only able to see her once and only for 15 minutes.

In his opinion, he and his daughter fell victim to “sick procedures”. He emphasizes that he has full parental rights and does not understand why he cannot return home with his own child. The man filed a motion with the court to entrust him with custody of the girl.

The representative of the court to which the father filed the motion indicated in an interview with “Fakt” that the letter had not yet been received. Łukasz Zioła, spokesman for civil matters of the District Court in Gdańsk, emphasized that the court will deal with the case as soon as possible. He also assured that the court's priority is the child's well-being.
