Legal Abduction To Japan (Forced Retention of Children and Transport To Japan)

In cases, where a custody order has not been issued by another country, a Japanese parent may make a visit to Japan with the child and simply retain the child in Japan, without the other parent's approval.  This is in violation of the child's right to its habitual country of residence and is possible only because Japan has not signed xxxx and does not honor court orders from other countries.  The result is often that the left-behind parent goes to court in their home country to get legal custody.  From then, this problem becomes similar to the "Child Abductions to Japan" and we hence refer to this situation as "Legal Abduction To Japan."
