Concern for a Thai Woman missing in Switzerland with an American boyfriend with a sinister past. Nantiwa ‘Noon’ Saejiw vanished after moving to Switzerland. She previously announced she was getting married and going to live in the United States. The family is anxious due to the US man’s history and an absence of contact since April 27th.

A concerned Thai family has filed a missing persons report in Switzerland relating to a 32-year-old woman who has not been heard from since April 27th. Nantiwa Saejiw, known by her nickname ‘Noon,’ left Thailand just days after meeting a new American boyfriend from a dating app at the end of March. Noon’s family have been made particularly anxious by reports of previous criminal charges against the US man.

 

The Thai Embassy in Switzerland has become involved in a search for a missing 32-year-old Thai woman.

 

Nantiwa Saejiw, or ‘Noon,’ previously left her home in Thailand on March 28th. She went to meet an American she had gotten to know on a dating app.

 

However, three days later, ‘Noon’ told her family that she was preparing to get married and would live in the United States.

The previous article did mention some medical issues, perhaps some mental things?

[Thingamabob]

You don't get to really know anyone on a dating app.

Instead of victim blaming, let's consider the victim.

Just one scenario - She is being held captive somewhere and the guy says 'send this message to your folks - or else'.

We do not know what is happening.

I just hope that she is found alive and well.

So she was married to a Swedish guy before, for four years, then meets an American on-line and decides to marry him after a few days, did his criminal past of illegally detaining a woman against her will, happen in the States of Thailand ? She had no money, she has a Medical condition whatever that may be. So they know who He is, is it that hard to track him down ? Maybe get the US cops involved to find him.

 I am not victim blaming, but to marry a person who you meet on a dating app after three days and then move to another country is insanity. People need to engage their brains before making such rash decisons, and understand the potential consequences for themselves of not thinking things through. I can only go on what is reported in the OP, (as opposed to fictional scenarios). I too hope she is found safe and well and that this serves as a learning experience.

Just out curiosity, who has declared her a victim?

Well, let's call a spade a spade.

 

Was she one of those prostitutes (sex workers) in Pattaya?

 

Now they are all working online in Thai Friendly App.

[brianthainess]

Maybe gone to see her ex in Sweden for a hand out.

 

 

[2long]

If only the Thai embassies cared as much about finding Red Bull Boss!

 

Anyway, whatever this lady's plans & past were, if she's being held captive against her will, I hope she gets help and home safe and soon.

Really that’s quite shocking lol

[Hanuman2547]

Wishing the best for her and her family.  May she be found safe and soon!

Quote

On April 24th, before she went missing, she contacted her family and requested a transfer of ฿430. However, she did not explain what the money was for.

 

What does 430 baht get you in Switzerland? The pieces of this story indecipherable.

You maybe shouldn't jump to conclusions, the report says he was charged, not that he was convicted.

Don't know the full story, straight to victim blaming - peak AseanNow

Who said she is a victim - what crime has been commited against her? Going missing is not a crime. Calling her a victim without knowing the full story is rather contradictory don't you think.

Just look at it this way.

There are six idiots on this site who declared themselves 'confused' about your post.

While many here are declaring this girl 'irresponsible' for getting too quickly in a relationship.

In Thailand, this type of situation is certainly not abnormal, since in the culture, generation money and taking care of someone is primary.

In this site, being 'confused' is not abnormal also, so it appears, because , because, well because many members here are, are, are, oh well, let me find a polite description..

 

And of course these 'confused' elitists will voice themselves again here.... Thanks for that....

You don't get to know someone on a dating app - AT ALL!

You don't even really know if they are male or female, young or old, good or bad.

You are courting disaster to do so.

 

I really feel for this young woman - trying to live her dream.

What involvement could a Thai embassy have in finding Vorayuth? Embassies do not investigate missing persons, they don't investigate anything, but, even if they did, what could be done with him?

In other words, it has been made aware of the missing Thai national, that's all.

That is what you said. From the reports so far, he does not have a 'criminal past', he has been charged, not convicted.

You forgot "What was she wearing? Maybe she was asking for it" 

[scubascuba3]

Wouldn't be surprised if she was trafficked into sex work

320 baht will get you a "schinken baguette" at any train station. They're pretty filling I often have one for lunch.
