		</div><p>Two children born in England after their parents were trafficked from Slovakia should be placed for adoption in England, a British High Court judge has decided.</p>
<p>Mr Justice Baker said it was not realistic to return the children &#8211; a girl approaching her third birthday and a boy approaching his second &#8211; to Slovakia.</p>
<p>The judge, who sits in the Family Division of the High Court, announced his decision in a written ruling after analysing the case at a family court hearing in London.</p>
<p>He said the children could not be identified, but the parents had lived in Bournemouth and Bournemouth Borough Council had responsibility for the youngsters&#8217; welfare.</p>
<p>Mr Justice Baker said the family&#8217;s background is &#8220;sad and disturbing&#8221;.<br />
He said the couple married in Slovakia four years ago and are both in their 30s.</p>
<p>The woman is Hungarian and of &#8220;Roma origin&#8221;.<br />
She was raised on the street in Slovakia as part of a homeless family and is illiterate and has learning difficulties.</p>
<p>The man is also Hungarian and has a &#8220;low IQ&#8221;, said the judge.<br />
Mr Justice Baker said the couple told how they had been victims of people trafficking.</p>
<p>The woman said they had arrived in Dover, Kent, had escaped from traffickers and then travelled around England before ending up in Bournemouth.</p>
<p>She gave birth in May 2013 and in May 2014.<br />
The children were placed in temporary foster care in July 2014 after social services staff became concerned about conditions in the family home, domestic violence and the woman&#8217;s mental health.</p>
<p>Mr Justice Baker said the couple were evicted from their home in early 2015 and returned to Slovakia.<br />
He said their whereabouts are now unknown.</p>
