    Is the partner the legal father? Is he on the birth certificate? Are they married?

    ANY question on law needs to include your general locale as laws vary by area.

    Unless there has been a court order establishing custody, the legal father has equal rights. So the only recourse is to go to court and get an emergency order establishing primary custody with your daughter. Then she will have to take that order and go pick up the child. She may have to have the police accompany her to do so.
