Full Case Text
IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT NAIROBI ADOPTION CAUSE NO. 90 2003 IN THE MATTER OF THE CHILDREN ACT 2001 SECTION 162 BABY AW
(AN INFANT) RULING
This is an application for international adoption. The infant to be adopted is AW a minor. The Applicants NV and BDC who are Italian Nationals, a married couple for 9 years have been evaluated appropriately and seem to me to qualify in terms of the statutory provisions set out in the Children’s Act No. 8 of the Kenya Laws. I am satisfied that this adoption is in the best interest of the minor and I allow it. It is, therefore, ordered that the infant AW be adopted by the said NV and BDC jointly herewith and on adoption the infant be known as AWV. DELIVERED this 26th day of August 2003. A.I. HAYANGA JUDGE
