MORGAN J
[1]This is an application for the return of the children KR and SR to
Slovakia pursuant to article 12 of the Hague Convention by reason of their
wrongful removal contrary to article 3 of the convention. Nothing must be
reported in this case which could lead to the identification of the children
concerned or any of the parties. To that end I have prepared this judgment in
an anonymised form.
[2]JR, the father, and SIR, the mother, were married on 6 August 1994.
They have two children, KR born on 19 February 1996 and SR born on 19 July
1997. As a result of differences between the parents they separated in 2002.
On 6 November 2002 a District Court in Slovakiaordered that the children
should reside with their mother. On 28 March2003 the same court granted
the father overnight contact with the children every other weekend. The
mother has consistently opposed contact between the children and the father
