Square root of -1 for the latter.

It's the same JP.   

59C6 and 59C53 give the same answer.

P.S. I didn't need to Google it.

Look it up.

Read my answer very carefully Stephen - did I differentiate.

Yep.

You referred to the square root of minus 1.

The 'i' s have it. %£5&% %£5&%

You could always try to integrate your answers, to make sense.

Rubbish.  Anything's possible, it's just a question of how likely it is.  I've never won the lottery before.  It doesn't mean I will certainly never win it, but the likelihood is virtually nil (especially as I rarely buy a ticket).

So why do you frequently ask "sceptics" for examples then?

Are there any examples of abducted children being recovered after 8+ years due to an ongoing investigation? We have examples of them escaping or otherwise turning up, but through an investigation?

May 23, 2007
Justice minister Ernst Hirsch Ballin is setting up an investigation into the case of the Indian boy allegedly kidnapped from his home and later adopted by a Dutch couple. ‘This is a very serious case,’ Ballin is reported as saying. ‘Think of the repercussions for everyone involved.’ The boy was allegedly kidnapped in 1999 and sold to a children’s home with a false letter of acceptance from the parents. He was then brought to the Netherlands by a Dutch adoption agency and adopted by a Dutch couple. TV show Netwerk reported on Monday that the Indian police want the child returned to India for DNA tests and to rejoin his biological parents. According to the Netwerk report the Dutch agency has known the child had been kidnapped since 2005. Meanwhile, adoption specialist Rene Hoksbergen says it is possible that more Dutch adoption agencies are dealing in children stolen in India. He says 53 children have been brought to this country from the children’s centre involved in the Netwerk case.

Parents Nagarani and Kathirvel
Countries: India, The Netherlands
Agencies:  Malaysian Social Services, Meiling

Nagarani and Kathrivel’s son was kidnapped during the night in Chennai, India. Five years later the kidnappers were arrested and they confessed that her son had been sold to an orphanage Malaysian Social Services Chennai and subsequently was given for adoption to adoptive parents in the Netherlands, through the mediation of a Dutch adoption agency.

ACT retraced the child in the Netherlands. The adoptive parents have so far refused to cooperate in DNA testing, to proof that the child is indeed Nagarani’s. ACT helped this Indian family to find a Dutch Attorney and to file a Court case in the Netherlands that took place in June 2010.

After two weeks, Nagarani and Kathirvel went back to India. Without even having met the adoptive parents, who did not appear in Court.

The Family Court of Zwolle-Lelystad has ruled on March 4 2011 in the case. The Indian couple’s request for a DNA test to determine that a boy adopted by Dutch parents is their biological son, was dismissed by the Court.

On 13 September 2012 the Dutch Appeal Court also dismissed the Indian’s parent’s request.

ACT is working on further actions.

Not sure if that really counts.

It covers all the criteria in your question.
If a trafficker's remit is a white English girl, there can't be many better places to abduct one than from a holiday resort in an EU country with an inadequate police force & precious little CCTV.

Then the media campaign publicising the eye defect began and they realised they had a child so recognisable that no-one would want her...

You do know that between 4 & 19 in every 100.000 people suffer with coloboma ?

Maybe but they're not all blonde girls of a certain age, are they ?

How many do you suppose their are in Sweden, Norway or Russia?
 Did you know that Americans living in Russia are not allowed to adopt children from Russian orphanages?

Quite a lot, I imagine, but they will be of all ages including many adults, so not so many that would fit the criteria.

Of course.

Austrian 10-year-old, Natascha Kampusch was abducted on her way to school in 1998, and not seen or heard from for 8 years. She spent those 8 years as a prisoner of her kidnapper, Wolfgang Priklopil, where she acted as his maid, cook, companion, and victim of every kind of abuse. He kept her in a 5 by 5 foot, windowless cell for days at a time, and it wasn’t until she was older that he allowed her to spend time in the garden, and occasionally go on trips with him. One day, after her 18th birthday, while Priklopil was distracted by a phone call, Natascha made a run for it. Rather than be arrested, Priklopil committed suicide by jumping in front of a train. Now, Natascha owns the house in which she was held prisoner, saying she doesn’t ever want it to be turned into a museum of her lost adolescence.

Shawn Horbeck was found after 4+ years by police... but because they were hot on the trail of a different boy who'd been kidnapped a few days previously.

It's not 8+ years, but it could have dragged on that long.
