So were these founders found violating a child support order?
I'm still unclear on what crime they actually committed and what they're being investigated for.
It's one thing to block an acquisition because you don't want your rival to gain an advantage which is not limited to the CCP.
It's another thing to detain an individual when no crime was committed.
In the US, the Passport Denial Program, since 1998 (other developed countries enacted similar legislation), following the 1992 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) [2]:
> The Child Support Enforcement Passport Denial Program was enacted as part of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996. While authorized in 1996, the program was jointly implemented by the U.S. Department of State and the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement in June 1998.
