"I am Franco-Japanese. My ex-husband says that our child is cut off from her father, following a maneuver that I have orchestrated to return to Japan. It is extremely serious, because he says that 'there is kidnapping. I stayed in France until 41 years old. I am an artist, my professional projects were in France. I never fled France, as he says. My ex-husband wanted this marriage in Japan, he wanted this life in Japan. He wanted to leave the army. He put me on a fait accompli, he had already signed the papers for his departure from the army.
It wasn't what I wanted, but at the time I was emotionally addicted.
He had a hold on me.
I had trauma before I knew him, so it wasn't his.
But he accepted me as I am.
He always calls me sick and handicapped, it's serious.
I am being followed for a small handicap which is not psychiatric, but physical.
He decided our life.
When he expressed the wish for divorce, because it came from him, I said yes.
"
I've been publicly accused of kidnapping for years
"
My ex-husband has created a community on behalf of our child on social media.
He published pictures of the child, of my relatives and even of my lawyer.
I've been publicly accused of kidnapping for years.
We get dirty, my relatives and me.
These are very serious accusations.
In our case, the French justice gives me sole legal custody of our child on Japanese territory.
Justice says there is no kidnapping, even his lawyer says so.
He never had custody, because he didn't want it.
That he does not say.
In this community he created, I am called a monster.
I am treated as inhuman and unspeakable in public, on social networks.
They don't know our history.
My ex-husband only gives them his version.
There are likes, shares and comments on our child's photos.
He only says what suits him, he distorts the truth.
He makes me say things that are wrong.
His weapon is publication.
"
He says he's been fighting for five years to regain his parental authority, but he hasn't done anything
"
My lawyer and I have always been in contact with the consular authorities in Japan.
The consul even came to the house.
The consulate always knew where we lived.
It's not a hideout.
For the divorce, it was I who appealed to the French courts.
I came to France with our child and my mother to sign the mutual consent.
During this stay, I also had medical appointments and underwent a small intervention.
So, I was tired.
I let my mother take care of the administrative papers.
We got married in Japan, it was logical that we divorce the Japanese way.
My mother explained to her what the Japanese divorce papers said: custody and parental authority were mine.
He is aware of what he signed.
He could have refused to sign because they were papers in Japanese.
He uses this to say that a maneuver has been orchestrated to take away parental authority in Japan.
He no longer has the right of accommodation.
He does not exercise his right of visit.
He says he's been fighting for five years to regain his parental authority in Japan, but he hasn't done anything.

We did
Skype
.
I was threatened and I suffered insults.
Our child witnessed scenes that really marked her.
He put incredible pressure on our child who didn't want to talk to him.
He was yelling at me on
Skype
, because our kid didn't want to talk to him.
He denigrates me in front of the child.
The thing my daughter has heard the most is: 'Your mom is sick'.
He publicly revealed my heavy treatment.
It's despicable to do that.
I do not wish anyone what we are going through. My ex-husband insults us, threatens us, and it's public. He said to me: 'I have my network, I know people, we will have no mercy for you. When the time comes, they will take action. ' On social media, I am treated as inhuman. We're throwing up on my mother and my lawyer. These publications are a horror. I need help. We can't live like this anymore. It is a public relentlessness. It really is a nightmare. It is not livable. "
