"...no proof of domestic violence and had illegally taken her children from their father."

With the judge's verdict imminent in my Hague Child Abduction Application, I came across this article from 27 July 2018...

"A Spanish court has jailed a woman for five years for going into hiding with her two sons rather than hand them to the father, whom she accused of abuse.
Juana Rivas has also been stripped of custody rights for six years and told to pay hefty legal costs."

"The court in the southern city of Granada said Rivas had no proof of domestic violence and had illegally taken her children from their father.

She had "exploited the argument of abuse" and had carried out "child abduction", the judgement said."
