A family conflict in a municipality in the Riga region of Latvia is continuing, with the mother asking a court to strip the children's father of his custody rights. The news portal Apollo.lv reports on the case, and its headline refers to a dangerous swimming pool, illegal weapons and psychological terror.

What happened before

Apollo.lv already covered the conflict in late September. Because of the parents' quarrels and manipulation, an ambulance had to be called to a school at that time. In court, the mother then managed to regain custody rights that had previously been taken away from her, but the disagreements between the parents did not end there.

The available information does not show when a hearing will take place or what the ruling will be. The details of the claims mentioned in the headline are not set out in this material.
