Task B:Maria Hertogh Riots

Maria hertogh born in dutch.Her parents were caught to be pows during the japanese occupation and she was adopted by a muslim couple for 13 years.Then in 1949,maria mother wanted to claim her back and it was been brought to the court.Riots occured between races and religious when maria was forced to return to her parents but she had no choice.Thus, this brings unhappiness between people with different races and religious and riots occur.I think this is unfair to the muslim couple because they had take care of maria for 13 years but they earn nothing but instead was given fines.Maria parents should be appreciate because the muslim couple had taken care of maria.If maria were not taken care by the muslims couple, maybe Maria could have been dead and if Maria parents had not make the case to the court, riots would not occur and people would not be dead or injured because of the riots and there would not be misunderstanding between races n religious.
