    Family Court
    Case number
    FCMC13330/2017

    The court accepted expert and social welfare evidence that both parents lacked significant psychological disorder, that the child had bonded relationships with both parents and expressed a wish to visit paternal relatives, and that the past corporal punishment incidents were historical, relatively minor, and had been the subject of counselling; balancing best interests and risk assessment the court found no significant ongoing risk and ordered regular overnight staying access including phased holiday and overseas access with specified timetable and review.
