Madonna is in the country with David Banda and her two biological children, Lourdes and Rocco. She is applying to adopt Mercy as a single parent. Pop star Madonna is in Malawi awaiting the result of a court bid to adopt an orphan, four-year-old Chifundo "Mercy" James. Her case has sparked a wider debate over inter-country adoption. Should parents in affluent countries be encouraged to adopt children from different cultures in the developing world? She adopts the first child David Banda in 2006. Madonna must return to court in Malawi on Friday to learn if she can adopt a second child from the African country.
The singer has already been criticised by international charities and now a human rights organisation in Malawi is threatening to try and stop the adoption taking place.
