In this International Parental Child Abduction from Canada to Europe, Tadeusz ( Ted ) Ustaszewski, father of Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS and grandfather of Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS has been Arrested on committing two (2) counts in the offence of “Aiding and Abetting” in the offence of Abduction in Contravention of a Custody Order, contrary to Section 282 of the Canadian Criminal Code when York Regional Police discovered he was back from Poland / Europe.

On Friday March 6, 2009 Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS father, Tadeusz (TED) Ustaszewski, was confirmed by the school to be alone when he picked-up the children from their school and daycare to have a weekend access with their mother.

On Monday March 9, 2009 Stephen WATKINS advised York Regional Police that Edyta WATKINS or her father, Tadeusz USTASZEWSKI had not returned the two children after her scheduled Court Ordered weekend access visit.  The children’s school called and advised Stephen WATKINS that Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS were not dropped off in the morning.

Stephen WATKINS advised York Regional Police that he feared Edyta WATKINS would attempt to abduct the children, as she had not turned in their Canadian Passports as required by a previous Court Orders and Motions heard by the Honorable Justice H. Brownstone on November 21, 2007, December 18, 2007 and January 29, 2008. Edyta WATKINS has family living in Chicago, USA, in Torun, Poland and in Warsaw, Poland.

York Regional Police spoke with Edyta WATKINS father, Tadeusz ( Ted ) USTASZEWSKI who was able to confirm that he had dropped his daughter and the two children off in Niagara Falls, New York on Sunday March 8th 2009 some time before 12:00pm (noon).

Canada Border Services Agency was able to advise York Regional Police that Tadeusz ( Ted ) USTASZEWSKI returned to Canada alone at approximately 4:15 pm the same day.

On March 10, 2009 the US Department of Homeland Security advised York Regional Police that they had confirmed that Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS and the children Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS had left on Northwestern Flight 52 from Detroit via Rochester, NY, USA to Frankfurt, Germany on Sunday March 8, 2009.

York Regional Police could not lay charges before Tadeusz Ustaszewski left Canada approximately a few weeks later and has since traveled to Poland which Police suspect to be with his daughter, Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS and grandchildren Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS.

On or about July 7, 2009 York Regional Police discovered that Tadeusz Ustaszewski was back from Europe when the Toronto’s 22 Division Police contacted York Region Police reporting that they have located Edyta Ustaszewski Watkins Minivan vandalized in a parking lot beside a Polish Newspaper in the West End of Toronto.

On July 16 2009 Tadeusz ( Ted ) Ustaszewski has been Arrested on committing two (2) counts in the offence of “Aiding and Abetting” in the offence of Abduction in Contravention of a Custody Order, contrary to Section 282 of the Canadian Criminal Code.

When York Regional Police interviewed Tadeusz Ustaszewski he has stated that he did not seen his daughter, Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS or Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS while he was away in Poland but he “Thought that she may be traveling with the boys between Poland, Germany and Austria”.

After being in Poland for 2-3 months and already shown to have assisted in the abduction of Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS into the U.S., the York Regional Police have a hard time believing his statements.

Tadeusz Ustaszewski has turned over his Canadian and Polish Passports and has been released on a “Promise to Appear” Order without a bond. His first court date is schedule for August 18, 2009 in the Superior Courts, in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada.

York Regional Police in Ontario, Canada believe that this was a planned abduction and requested that a Canada-wide warrant in the First be issued for Edyta ( Ustaszewski ) WATKINS for committing two (2) counts in the offence of Abduction in Contravention of a Custody Order, contrary to Section 282 of the Canadian Criminal Code.

The father, Stephen WATKINS has a Sole Custody Order Finalized on January 26, 2009 although the boys, Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS, had been living with their father exclusively since December 2007 after the children were apprehended by the Catholic Children’s Aid Society of Toronto (CCAS) from their mother over mental / physical abuse.

Alexander WATKINS and Christopher WATKINS have still not been located in Poland, Germany or Austria and Europe.
