British Expat Says Son Kidnapped & Believed to be in Siem Reap, Cambodia: $1,000 REWARD
My son Oliver has been kidnapped by his Khmer uncle. I believe to be in the siem reap area and handed over to his mother.My son has lived with me for the last year and I gave access to his mother to visit every month with no problems. Now she decides to kidnap him and take him away from his home, and friends. I have a lead on the mother but I live in PoiPet and I believe she's in siem reap area. Can you please look at the first photograph and give me any indication where this might be. There are 2 statues that are very tall in the background and I have scoured the internet on museums, spa resorts to try to locate for myself to no avail.I posted a $1,000 reward last week on my facebook trying to get information on his whereabouts with no luck. Please message me with any information on the whereabouts of this location. I cut out her face so not to give her any indication I know her new workplace(she changed job 2 months ago and she is unaware I have this new photo of her) I've not eaten or slept since his disappearance and time seems to be slipping away

Re: Expat Says Son Kidnapped in Poipet & Believed to be in Siem Reap, Cambodia: $1,000 REWARD
yes there is, she cheated on me and left nearly a year ago.My son was left in a village with the grandmother and my son doesn't speak Khmer and didn't know her. So I took him back to his home after a week with the grandmother. He only knows me and my school and teachers, students. He never saw his mom for the last 3 months and she got her brother to befriend me and my son as he was living in BKK and came here to Poi Pet on visa runs. This last time she arranged for the uncle to take him away from his home to a strange place with people he doesn't know. I just hope he can remember his mom enough so he's not frightened

Some friends of the family are going to have a good business going if they collect the reward money every time your son gets taken.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Sorry for the hard time you're going through, I can't imagine what that's like.
An expat friend was potentially facing the same issue (which fortunately didn't play out as you describe) and did some research. According to Cambodian law the first child "belongs" to the father, regardless of the father's nationality. So, according to him, it's worthwhile approaching the police, even if there's tea money involved, to discuss further.
For the bar-stool lawyers - I'm not interested in your naysaying or heckling, this is MY friend's lived experience, which may differ from that of others.
Also, as Duncan alludes to above, I'd hastily retract the offer of a reward as you're only going to promote a kidnapping industry, probably based around your child. Use the money to engage the local police.
Just my 2c.
Edit: alternatively, offer the ex a much lower figure in exchange for a signed and notarized waiver that she grants you sole custodianship of the child with no further recourse. It would NOT stand up in court, but she'd have to get you to court to test that.

Maybe that's all he's got, we can't all be plutocrats who work laying asphalt in some shithole

Nice to see some compassion and some honest helpful advice. I can't imagine what this must be like either, but unlike some on here, I've no reason not to take this at face value. Must be a horrific ordeal and I hope and pray it ends well.StroppyChops wrote: ↑Sun Sep 23, 2018 3:57 pm Sorry for the hard time you're going through, I can't imagine what that's like.
