Dear Mr Deutsch,
I refer to Beth Alexander, a young British woman and qualified lawyer, who has recently been forbidden by the Austrian courts to have any contact with her precious twin sons, Benjy and Sammy. I am sure you are aware of the circumstances of her situation so I do not intend to repeat them here.
As many others are doing, I am writing to you to you, also as a mother and an English qualified lawyer, to ask that you, as President of the Vienna Jewish Community, reach out to those in your community and do everything in your power to put an end to this utter travesty and reunite Beth with her sons.
Beth is from my home town of Manchester. I did not know her personally but we have mutual connections. She is a very bright, loving, wonderful mother who has so much love to give to her beautiful children.
To deprive a child of a mother’s love is beyond cruel. The longer this situation continues, the emotional damage caused to her sons risks becoming irreparable.
The basis on which the twins’ father has alienated their mother is unfounded and false. You must know in your heart and soul that the actions taken by the twins’ father is wrong.
The boys’ barmitzvah is coming up. What a travesty if their mother cannot share their simcha, such an important milestone in a Jewish boy’s life.
In your position of authority, you must now do all that you can to put an end to this situation. For Beth. For Benji and Sammy. I dread to think of what lies ahead for the boys and Beth without this dreadful wrong being put right.
I really hope and pray you will stand by Beth and her sons. I look forward to a positive outcome in the very near future.
Yours sincerely,
Paula Margolis
