Page 30 of 30 SEPARATE OPINION OF JUDGES PINHEIRO FARINHA, PETTITI, WALSH, RUSSO AND DE MEYER We take the view that the decisions at issue themselves, as well as their implementation, unjustifiably interfered with the right of the applicants to respect for their family life. We feel that it cannot be accepted that children can be taken away from their parents without a prior judicial decision, save in cases of emergency. Moreover, we believe that it has not been shown that in the present case such a measure was really "necessary in a democratic society".  Note by the Registrar: The case is numbered 2/1987/125/176. The second figure indicates the year in which the case was referred to the Court and the first figure its place on the list of cases referred in that year; the last two figures indicate, respectively, the case's order on the list of cases and of originating applications (to the Commission) referred to the Court since its creation.
