Circumstances of Disappearance​


In 1985 the Cavas family lived at 85 Ransfortstraat in Sint-Jans-Molenbeek. It was on a Wednesday, February 6, 1985, that the boy disappeared. In the afternoon there was no school and Gevriye, then 5 years old, was at home where an older sister was keeping an eye on things. His mother was sick in bed. At around 3 pm, Gevriye wanted to find his big brother to play football together on a field nearby. Despite the ban on going outside, the toddler left the house alone. He was never seen again. The investigation has not yet been completed. With the help of an aging photo the investigators hope to obtain useful tips.

If you know more about the sudden disappearance, please contact investigators. Even if you lived in Molenbeek in 1985 and can still remember strange people or strange events from that period, the researchers would like to know. Every tip, no matter how small, can be important.”

Now he would be 44 years old.
I am still thinking of him.
I hope and pray so much that he was taken by someone who just wanted a child and took care of him.. Gevriye living his life not knowing his real identity would be the best option on what could have happen to him.
 
Two months after he disappeared he would have been 6 yo. Do you think he would have forgotten his name ?

I'm not an expert on the subject but I would think this is possible. If the person who took him did brainwash him, in some way, by repeating continuously lies to him, maybe he just ended up believing in it.
He could also have "forgotten" everything before his 6yo, kind of a black out, that's a reaction the brain can get after getting through big traumas.
Again I'm not an expert and this is all jmo
 
There are quotes from his family and additional details in this article. IMO it seems like abduction was the most likely occurance. Such a tragedy for him and his family.


He came from a large Aramaic family that had only been living in Brussels for a few years. At the time of his disappearance, he had twelve brothers and sisters...

According to his family, he then climbed onto a chair to get the key and follow his brothers...

His family immediately went to the police, but couldn't understand them very well because they spoke neither French nor Dutch...

"From that day on, his parents wanted nothing more to do with Brussels..."
