Yes, if you narrow the definition to that point it seems likely that it hasn't happened before. INS doesn't usually take children and leave the parents, they take the whole family. I was referring to the habit of breaking down doors and pointing guns at people, not claiming that there were other cases where this was done to forcibly return a child to a parent.

I still believe that nobody has a right to keep a child away from a parent, unless the parent is clearly incompetent to a degree which endangers the child. The idea of a relative refusing to turn a child over to his own father is fairly repulsive to me; certainly if I were in that position I would be willing to resort to force.
