Norske Tor-Eivind Gamlem som trolig vet hvor de forsvunne britiske skolejentene befinner seg i Thailand, har nå kontakt med sin norske familie.
Det øker håpet om en snarlig gjenforening mellom de bortførte jentene og deres britiske far.
De to thailandsk-britiske skolejentene Annie (11) og Aleena Day (6) ble meldt savnet i Pattaya i Thailand 2. juni i år. Deres far, Robert Day, fra Kent i England, har siden den gangen fortvilt forsøkt å finne jentene som etter all sannsynlighet er bortført av den thailandske moren, Onwarat Gamlem.
Day og Gamlem ble skilt for fire år siden, og thailandsk rett har gitt faren aleneansvar for døtrene som var på besøk hos moren da de brått forsvant om ettermiddagen 2. juni. Politiet har etterlyst henne i forbindelse med det politiet mener er en bortføring av de to jentene. Onwarat Gamlem er jentenes biologiske mor, og hun ble skilt fra Robert Day for fire år siden. Day ble tilkjent foreldreretten i forbindelse med skilsmissen, og jentene har siden den gang bodd i England.
Onwarat Gamlem er senere gift med nordmannen Tor-Eivind Gamlem. De bodde en kort tid i Norge før Onwarat flyttet tilbake til Thailand. De har også en sønn sammen som nå er tre år gammel. Tor-Kenneth er fisker, og har en arbeidssituasjon som gjør at han kan tilbringe uker i Thailand av gangen. Han ankom Thailand 5. juli med 30 dagers visum. Dette visum utløp for få dager siden, men Gamlem skal ha vært i Kambodsja og fått 30 nye dager. Han er ikke etterlyst for noe kriminelt, og fikk derfor enkelt et stempel i passet.
I løpet av denne uka kommer imidlertid Thailands rett til å avgjøre om engelskmannen Robert Day og hans advokat får sperret minibankkortet til Gamlem.. Day er overbevist om at ekteparet Gamlem er sammen og at de lever på hans bankkonto, og at både deres felles barn og de to engelske jentene er sammen med dem.
På ny kommer britiske Day med en intens oppfordring gjennom denne bloggen: «Vær så vennlig og returner jentene mine til meg. I mellomtiden: Gjør det hele så skånsomt at det medfører en minst mulig psykisk belastning for barna mine», sier han.
Denne bloggen har vært i kontakt med Gamlems norske familie. De er i løpende kontakt med Gamlem i Thailand. Den norske familien er rystet over det som har skjedd, og ønsker bare at alt skal få en best mulig utgang. Det øker muligheten for en rask gjenforening me,llom den britiske faren og de to bortførte jentene.
Saken har vært mye omtalt i thailandsk og britisk presse. I dag omtales den også i norske Sunnmørsposten, lokalavisa til Gamlem. Den artikkelen kan du lese her.

SEVENOAKS: — THE grandparents of two sisters who went missing and are believed to have been abducted while they were in Thailand 72 days ago are pleading for Sevenoaks holidaymakers to keep their eyes peeled for the girls.
Aleena and Ananya Day, aged 6 and 11, arrived with their father in Pattaya on May 25 and spent several days visiting their 33-year-old mother, Onwarat Gamlem formerly known as both Wiganda Day and Onwarat Suphikunphong.
missing seven oaks girlsThe alarm was raised when Mrs Gamlem failed to take the two girls to the airport on June 1 so that they could fly home with their father and there has been no sign of them since.
An arrest warrant has been issued for Mrs Gamlem on suspicion of abducting her daughters.
Grandmother Betty Day, who lives with her husband, son and granddaughters in Chipstead, told the Chronicle: Its been nine weeks and we still havent heard anything.
My son, Robert, is still in Thailand searching for them.
He has made so many enquiries hes doing everything he can think of. Its really very hard.
His funds have run out so were helping to support him. He wont come home until hes got them back.
Both children were born in Thailand but have been raised in Sevenoaks since their parents divorced in 2010.
Mr Day was awarded full custody of his daughters and they visit their mother once a year.
In new steps to try to trace them, billboards displaying photographs of Ananya known as Annie and Aleena, as well as wanted posters for their mother, have been attached to vehicles now being driven around paraded across the resort of Pattaya with a loudspeaker.
Airlines serving Thai airports have also been alerted to prevent attempts to flee the country.
The police think that Onwarats new husbands visa will soon run out hes from Norway, Mrs Day said.
Nobody knows where he is either but there could be warrants for his arrest soon too when his visa runs out.
She added: Both girls missed the end of the school term. Annie is starting at Trinity School in September. Theyve assured us her place is secure. We can only hope that shell be back by then.
If anyone has family or friends there or theyre going on holiday to Thailand, please keep raising awareness.
We all want the girls back home.
In an online plea for information, the girls father said: They have missed so much birthdays, end of year outings, the end of primary school party and induction day at senior school.
Someone out there must know something that will help the police with their inquiries.
Everyone is working so hard to find them but to date there has been no breakthrough.
My girls are my world and I miss them both very much.

On Tuesday, Pattaya Police were issued an arrest warrant for 36-year-old Onwarat Gamlem, who is the non-custodial mother of the children. The warrant orders police officers around the country to arrest Ms Onwarat on charges of child abduction.
Ms Onwarat, also known by her nicknames “Nok Lek” and “On”, is to be handed over to the Pattaya City Police once arrested.
The children’s father, Robert Day, believes Ms Onwarat may have brought the children to Phuket, Mr Day’s sister, Charlotte Dillow, told the Phuket Gazette. Ms Onwarat once lived in Phuket.
“She met her current husband there, too,” Ms Dillow said.
Ms Onwarat and Mr Day are divorced. A Thai court four years ago gave full custody of the girls, Annie and Aleena, to Mr Day, with no access to Ms Onwarat, reported Pattaya103.com (story here), which broke the story.
Ms Onwarat deserted the children for 18 months when they were very young, said the report.
Mr Day took the children to the UK and has been raising them alone, but allowing them to communicate with their mother online.
When Ms Onwarat did not return them on June 1 as agreed, Mr Day contacted the police, who searched her home and found it empty.
Ms Onwarat is now married to a Norwegian man who left Thailand for work on April 27. The couple have a three-year-old son, Marvin.
Also known by her previous married name Wiganda Day and her maiden name Onwarat Suphikunphong, Ms Onwarat is believed to be in hiding with her three children.
She was seen driving a white Toyota Vios, red plate registration 2995, issued in Chon Buri.
The Gazette notes that the registered address on the arrest warrant marks a residence in Pathum Thani, on the outskirts of Bangkok.
Alternatively, Ms Onwarat may be hiding out in her home province of Ayutthaya, Ms Dillow noted.
Anyone with information about the group’s whereabouts are urged to notify nearest police station or call the police hotline 191.

En sønderknust britisk far ber om norsk hjelp til å finne sine to døtre som ble bortført i Pattaya i juni. En nordmann er kronvitne, og vet trolig hvor jentene befinner seg.
67 dager er gått siden de to thailandsk-britiske skolejentene Annie (11) og Aleena Day (6) ble meldt savnet i Pattaya, Thailand. I alle dager siden den gang har deres far, Robert Day, fra Kent i England fortvilt forsøkt å finne dem. Han har brukt tiden til å henge opp plakater av de savnede døtrene og spørre tilfeldige om noen kan ha sett døtrene, men så langt til ingen nytte.
Politiet har etterlyst Onwarat Suphikunphong Gamlem i forbindelse med det politiet mener er en bortføring av de to jentene. Onwarat Gamlem er jentenes biologiske mor, og hun ble skilt fra Robert Day for fire år siden. Day ble tilkjent foreldreretten i forbindelse med skilsmissen, og jentene har siden den gang bodd i England.
Etter skilsmissen ble Onwarat Gamlem kjæreste med en nordmann, Tor-Eivind Gamlem, fra Møre og Romsdal. De har også fått et barn sammen som nå er tre år. De bodde en stund i Norge før Onwarat flyttet tilbake til Thailand der Gamlem jevnlig besøker henne. Han har en arbeidssituasjon som gjør det mulig for ham å besøke sin thailandsk-norske familie uker av gangen.
Ring meg, Tor, sier fortvilt far til bortførte jenter
Selv om de to jentene er blitt britiske, mente faren at de ikke hadde noe vondt av å få vite mer om sitt thailandske opphav. De reiste derfor på en ferie til Pattaya, og landet i Bangkok 25. mai med tanke på å tilbringe en tre ukers ferie der. Robert avtalte med Onwarat at hun kunne tilbringe litt tid med døtrene. Han ante fred og ingen fare, selv da hun ringte ved to-tiden om ettermiddagen 2. juni for å fortelle at de ble litt forsinket til avtalen om å returnere jentene. Tiden gikk, han ble mistenksom, og brått opphørte all telefonforbindelse. Han sendte sms-er, men fikk ikke svar. Da reiste han til leiligheten hennes, og fikk sjokk. Leiligheten var fraflyttet.
Forsvinningen ble politianmeldt, men thailandsk politi har ikke greid å finne henne. Hun har kastet sim-kort, og det ikke mulig å spore henne elektronisk gjennom telefon eller bankkort.
I følge den informasjonen thailandsk politi har gitt til Robert Day, ankom Tor-Eivind Gamlem Thailand 5. juli. På immigration-kortet han fylte ut på flyet, er et hotellnavn oppført. Politiet har sjekket dette hotellet, men der har han aldri sjekket inn. Både thailandsk politi og Robert Day oppfordrer nå Tor-Eiving Gamlem på det sterkeste å melde seg. Han er ikke mistenkt for noe kriminelt, men ut fra omstendighetene tror både jentenes far og thailandsk politi at han sitter på viktig informasjon om hvor jentene befinner seg.
En sønderknust far forteller dette til denne bloggen: – Jeg håper intenst at nordmannen melder seg. Han er mitt siste håp. Det er 67 dager siden jeg mistet jentene mine. Vi har ikke snakket sammen eller sms-et siden den gang. Jeg er som dere forstår fryktelig bekymret for hvordan de har det, og jeg er helt sikre på at også de er bekymret for meg En tre ukers ferie er blitt til 11 ukers mareritt. Vær så snill og hjelp meg.
Saken har også hatt vakt betydelig interesse i britiske medier. Hvis noen har informasjon om denne saken, vær vennlig å kontakte undertegnede på denne bloggen, eventuellt epost journalistodd@gmail.com eller Robert Day på følgende epostadresse: robdayis@hotmail.com

A former soldier nicknamed Rambo has been arrested after leading a team of highly trained mercenaries across exotic locations in a plot to kill a US drug enforcement agent.
A legal document lodged by the US attorney’s office in New York alleges Joseph Manuel Hunter, also known as Frank Robinson, Jim Riker and Rambo, plotted to carry out the contract killing for $US850,000, and also attempted to import cocaine into the US.
His fellow accused are nicknamed Tay, Nico, Paul and Gerald, the Grand Jury indictment reads.
Two of the team were arrested on Wednesday entering Liberia to allegedly carry out the contract hit, which was given to them by undercover sources for the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA).
Simultaneously, Hunter was also taken into custody at the Phuket Country Club by heavily armed Thai police and is expected to arrive in the United States tonight (AEST).
The US attorney’s office alleges he planned the hit and led the team of mercenaries.
Hunter made requests to the undercover sources for silenced weapons, a scoped rifle and the team was also provided with highly specialised latex masks to hide their identities.
Hunter – the central figure of the conspiracy – is a 21-year veteran of the US military who led air assault and airborne infantry squads, as well as trained snipers.
Since leaving the military in 2004 he has arranged for the “murders of multiple people”, the US attorney’s office alleges.
Nico and Paul had served in the armed forces of Germany, while Gerald was a member of Poland’s elite counter-terrorism unit. All three were snipers. Tay, whose real name is Timothy Vamvakias, is a former US Army sergeant and a military police officer who served with Hunter.
The indictment explains that this conspiracy began late last year when Hunter began recruiting members of his team. In January this year Hunter met two people in Thailand who portrayed themselves as Colombian drug dealers to whom Hunter gave his team’s resumes.
They were in fact sources for the US Drug Enforcement Agency and all their conversations on that day and at future meetings were secretly recorded.
In March, Hunter met the fake drug dealers again. He was told that apart from being security for a drug running-organisation he could expect “bonus jobs”, or contract kills.
Hunter told the DEA sources he had undertaken that sort of work before.
Authorities recorded Hunter’s conversation with his team later on the same day. He told the team what their new employers were expecting of them and that they would see “tons of cocaine and millions of dollars”.
He also said they would be doing “assassinations” and that most of the bonus work would be up-close killings because in the cities you do not get long-range shots. Hunter also divulged that he had arranged for two female real estate agents to be killed.
In April, the conspiracy moved to Mauritius where the team provided security for a real eastern European drug-trafficking organisation that had shipped over 200 kilograms of cocaine.
They also provided counter-surveillance on a weapons deal for the fake Colombian drug dealers.
In June they went to the Bahamas to provide surveillance of a massive cocaine haul being loaded onto a plane bound for the US. It was after this job they were offered a contract to kill a DEA agent and a boat captain in Liberia. He replied in an email: “They (the mercenary team) will handle both jobs they just need good tools”.
In July he sent a list of items he would need – two submachine guns with silencers, pistols with silencers, a .308 rifle with a scope and two concealment vests.
Later they would be provided with highly specialised latex masks, which can make the wearer appear from another race.
Finally, in August, Hunter and teammate Vamvakias met up with the fake Colombian dealers to discuss the details of the assassinations, which were again recorded.
Vamvakias told them the team would “have to get up close” and that if his primary weapon malfunctioned he would need the pistols to “hit it hard, hit it fast, make sure it gets done and get the f*** out of there”.
They also asked about how to get into the country without having their passports stamped and they were told they would be flown out in a private plane.
Hunter said the extraction would be “the biggest headache” rather than the “job”.
In all it would take two weeks: one week for surveillance and one week to “make it happen”, he allegedly said.
By this stage two of the team – Paul and Gerald – had backed out of the job.
Hunter said he would arrange for Vamvakias and Nico to do the job together.
Nico is recorded as saying about the “bonus jobs” that “actually for me that’s fun, I love this work”.
On Wednesday this week they arrived in Liberia to allegedly commit the planned murders for hire and were arrested and sent to the US, where they have now been charged.
Paul and Gerald, who had pulled out of the mission, were arrested in Estonia.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. – An Ilion native pleaded guilty Thursday to federal charged of international parental kidnapping.
Jeffrey Shipman, an Ilion native, admitted that on on July 12, 2007 he left the United States with his then 3-year-old daughter , flying from JFK Airport in New York City to London-Heathrow Airport, with the intent to obstruct the lawful exercise of the mother’s parental rights. Authorities said Shipman further admitted that he kept the child outside the United States for the next 4 ½ years, traveling from England, to Germany, France, and Thailand.
He ultimately turned himself and the child in to authorities in Bangkok, Thailand in March of this year. The child, now 9 years old, has been reunited with her mother.
The crime of International Parental Kidnapping carries a maximum sentence of 36 months imprisonment and up to one year of supervised release. Shipman and the United States Attorney’s
Office have agreed on a binding sentence of 30 months imprisonment and 1 year supervised release.
Sentencing is scheduled for January 4, 2013.
Shipman’s arrest was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office, and the United States Marshals Service. Shipman is being prosecuted by AUSA Lisa Fletcher, Project Safe Childhood Coordinator for the Northern District of New York.
Launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice, and led by United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe
Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

According to the Department of Justice, 800,000 children are reported missing every year in the united states. Out of that number, 69,000 were kidnapped. “I think anytime a child is missing it’s a big number. Whether it’s one or 69,000, but yes, 69,000 sounds like a large number,” says criminal justice professor Stacey Hervey from Metro State College in Denver.
Our children are taught to beware of stranger-danger. “If someone you don’t know approaches you, that you yell and scream that this is not my mom or dad,” says Hervey.
But the likely danger is closer to home. Of the 69,000 children kidnapped every year, 82 percent, eight out of ten, are abducted by a family member. “In the case of Jessica Ridgeway the media picks up on it very quickly and of course it puts the fear in every parent’s heart. But in reality they are a very miniscule number as far as stranger abductions. The likelihood is someone that you know is going to take your kid.”
When it comes to anyone having regular contact with your child, don’t be paranoid, be prudent. “Child predators are very manipulative, and do want to work themselves into your life and make you trust them.”
And the odds of your child being abducted by anybody? That would be .02 percent. Perspective is everything.

Authorities are trying to recover two young Fairfax County children who were allegedly kidnapped by their father and taken to Tunisia.
Three-year-old Zainab Chebbi and 6-year-old Eslam Chebbi have been missing since Nov. 11, when prosecutors say their father, 39-year-old Faical Chebbi, flew with them to Tunisia.
Faical Chebbi called the children’s mother — his ex-wife — the next day and told her that he and the children would not be returning, according to court records. Chebbi was charged in federal court in Alexandria with international parental kidnapping.
Chebbi and Edeanna Johnson-Chebbi divorced in January, nearly a year after she obtained a protective order because he threatened to kill her, according to court documents. Johnson-Chebbi had sole custody of Zainab and Eslam; Chebbi absconded with the children after picking them up from their grandparents’ house in Prince George’s County for a scheduled visit, according to the court documents.
“At first, I was sort of in an action mode,” said Johnson-Chebbi, who created a Facebook page and online petitions about the case.
“What else are you going to do?” she told The Washington Examinerin December. “I won’t allow myself to imagine that this will pass. They will be home. I just don’t know how or when.”
But Johnson-Chebbi faces an uphill battle. There are no treaties or agreements between the United States and Tunisia regarding parental abduction cases.
This summer, Faical Chebbi was added to the FBI Washington Field Office’s Wanted Fugitives list.
Anyone with information on the case can contact the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 800-THE-LOST (843-5678).
