Clive and Iuliia Gurzhii were all over the news for 3 days in August, after idiotically going to give birth on a beach a long way from home.
The birth was unwitnessed and very odd circumstances.
I googled them and all I could find was a gofundme (never saw that one coming!!) - it raised GBP128 out of an ambitious target of GBP15.000.

Do you think they are still out there?

Oh good grief.

I can't believe you are still checking the story though.

Those poor children.

Am I still checking this story? OF COURSE! It’s gold - and I reckon there’s a lot more still to come out…

MadeOfAllWork · 12/08/2025 23:20

Well done for spotting this. I feel for the 10 year old, abandoned like that.

murasaki · 12/08/2025 22:57

Indeed. A work of art.

shameful typical twisted pro pagan da half truth to inverted narrative that targets whistle blowers targeting legal fraud case.
with typical masonic monopolised media added twists and avoidance of the zero evidence and set up about clive initialy knowing and exposing the new world order, “agenda 21” and “agenda 2030” depopulation with 15 minute city totalitarian intensions. also knowing the intentional slow kill vaccines the intentional harm and kill children ploys and knowing thelegal fraud upheld only by the “NAME in all CAPITALS” supporting it and the mass profitising of all empire frauds via the systems complex and covert trading cestui que vie act 1666 birth certificate fraud, Clive having primarily not comprehend fully its legal fraud implications tried to take his whole family off grid, avoiding the mrna and graphine containing vaccines via sailing islands, instead the his 1st borns passport was refused, and Elizabeth was hunted down by uk police and social workers 1st siezing their home family dogs in an attempt to sieze elizabeth their 1st child and arrested their child sitting relatives all on false accused fabricated charges,for clive to rush back and to be hunted down and arrested trying to stop elizabeth being siezed, having lost the near on war. After clives intensive investigation of the lawlessness imposed at the highest level of courts in the uk he headed back to Lulia who couldn’t sail, then tried to survive, evade the new born being taken whilst trying to symotaniasly get back to get elizabeth out of forced care and publicise it all and against this type of typical zero evidence contolled media spin.

This one?

Thanks @RedToothBrush.

The first BTL comment is hilarious.🤪👾

It's comedy gold. I recognised MOST of the words, but it made no sense whatsoever!

Toddler has been with Julia since birth and guessing from Julia’s yoga/free birth point of view has probably co slept/breastfed. Then overnight has lost her mum who was imprisoned. Is it best interests of baby to stay in orphanage in cayman and have occasional visits to mum in prison or go to uk (strange cold country totally different from all she has known) and be with family/full sibling she’s never met. Plus logistics of getting baby without a passport back to uk, also real likelihood no dna tests voluntarily done so whole is she their baby to be sorted too.
I said on another post it could be a question in a law exam it’s got everything.

They could DNA test the two girls and determine if they are full or half siblings that way.

What enormous emotional damage will have been done to the two innocent children involved in this saga, because of this pair of lunatics.

Criminals. Pair of criminals. I agree with people upthread that if Clive has been crisscrossing the Atlantic, this is likely not the first time he has smuggled people or contrabrand, and the “we’re just naive hippies” was likely a cover story for an extremely unpleasant person.

They were named in the first local news reports. Otherwise another poster is unlikely to have picked up the story on Google by searching the very unusual name.

It was only after then that the court added the restriction.

But it's very obvious it's them due to the unusual details of the case.

This is the trouble with the internet and having an unusual name and then committing a pretty heinous crime that's never previously happened in that country before. (Not his original name too - he chose to be more identifiable which is utterly bizarre given his beliefs!).

It’s very obvious it’s them because the news report that “can’t name them” is headed by photos of them from the previous sad face articles/gofundme, with the faces very slightly blurred. So clearly sticking to the letter of the law but not the spirit Grin

Dixiechickonhols · 03/12/2024 10:36

This was latest I saw. Both convicted re people smuggling and baby a ward of court. I assume gone quiet due to reporting restrictions with 2 children now left with both parents in prison. The baby had been with them in Cayman Islands and presumably still had no passport. The tween was with a relative in Tameside but there has been social services involvement (Clive flew back at one point due to this) www.caymancompass.com/2024/09/06/yacht-couple-convicted-of-smuggling-ethiopian-refugees/

I get a bit excited when I see a new post on this thread! Wondering what wild update there is.

I'd love to see this as a film! It's completely insane!

SuperSue77 · 02/12/2024 18:46

I was on another thread about this same case back while ago but never saw this update until now! I’m sure Clive popped up on the thread I was on purporting to be a “friend” of theirs.

Rosie5060 · 17/11/2024 08:25

Jumping on this thread to follow for any updates/discussions, I regularly end up thinking about this story.

Vezone · 03/11/2024 16:41

They are currently in a Cayman Islands prison on people smuggling charges after sailing a boat the our sister island Cayman brac in the Caribbean.
have a look at the cayman compass.

Yes, several pages of posts over the past few weeks on this thread have already established that!

The local news item linked says that they cannot be named for legal reasons.

So whereas those who have been following the whole saga will find them readily identifiable, no British MSM is going to go against the conditions by of a British overseas territory court and name them here. Which doesn't really leave much of a story

Yes, it started off as a Daily Mail sadface/point and laugh story, so was covered as such, then turned into something much more complex with different legal and privacy implications, hence the lack of coverage.

I find the fact that no UK media outlet have picked up on this story as a bit suspicious!

I mean it has everything!

Would there be some sort of gagging order or something through the courts?
