Ooooooh I was thinking about him this morning!

Someone MUST know who he is surely? Hmm

ThreadWatcher · 13/06/2012 21:39

The second link worked :)

Tigresswoods · 13/06/2012 21:41

Oh good. Bit controversial but I can't help thinking of Ben Needham!

I have come across the Ben theory just now and I have to say I am more than half convinced it is him.

Time will tell I guess
Presumably by now they have done DNA tests etc?

KristinaM · 13/06/2012 22:08

Ben needham would be in His early 20s now

ThreadWatcher · 13/06/2012 22:19

Where are all the forest boy hunters?

C'mon folks there is a new lead on the story....................!

Tigresswoods · 14/06/2012 07:27

I know there was a massive thread in this last autumn

He looks exactly like the artists impression of him which makes a change!

Tigresswoods · 14/06/2012 07:38

I know Ben would be a bit older but it's got to be worth ruling out.

This is what Ben Needham would have looked like now. Check out the noses! They're exactly the same...

They MUST be looking into this link?

IDontRecall · 14/06/2012 12:34

Bloody hell, they do look alike!

Tigresswoods · 14/06/2012 12:35

I just started another discussion in chat. It seems very quiet here.

ripsishere · 15/06/2012 07:59

It all seems to have gone quiet on the story anyway.
Wouldn't it be lovely if it was Ben Needham?

BonnieBumble · 15/06/2012 08:00

On the other thread it says that they have identified him and he is Dutch.

lisad123 · 15/06/2012 08:10

How odd, does sound very odd story, especially as he had new back pack and looks very well for a kids living in woods for five years.
He doesn't look older than 16 to me, but he is clearly someone's son Sad

Birdsgottafly · 15/06/2012 08:35

An elderly Swiss couple had claimed that he is their grandson and have supplied DNA, as evidence. So the test results should be back in a few days.

They have said that if he is Swiss he will be deported and the Germans will
charge Switzerland for his care and the investigation.

SuzySheepSmellsNice · 15/06/2012 10:19

Charming!

TheOneWithTheHair · 15/06/2012 10:30

So interested in finding out who he is. Even if his story is bull it's a bit extreme to go to those lengths. He definitely needs some kind of help.

oricella · 15/06/2012 10:51

right, just in .. according to the dutch NOS he is indeed Dutch and has now confirmed his identity to the police in Berlin

ThreadWatcher · 15/06/2012 11:06

Ooooh his name is Robin van Helsum and is 20yo.
I thought he looked older than 17 tbh.

Still think he looks like Ben Needham might look though.

ThreadWatcher · 15/06/2012 11:16

This is interesting

People on that forum seem to think he looks like a missing boy called Justin!

Tigresswoods · 15/06/2012 11:55

Closure at last
