How is it possible that there is no trace in the Ostrobothnian family?
Disappearance|Police are looking for a family of at least seven children who have been missing for over a year.
The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
The Ostrobothnian family has been missing for over a year. According to police, they have not left any physical or digital traces.
Police suspect parents of their children’s arbitrary care.
According to the expert, the disappearance is difficult but possible.
Failure to do children’s clinic visits does not automatically lead to a child welfare notice, but can cause concern.
Police told Wednesday that he had been looking for more than a year a missing Ostrobothnian familywhich has not left any physical or digital traces.
Parents are suspected of arbitrary care of their own children. According to police, the children were placed in Uusikaarlepyy, where they took them. At least some of the children are under school age and would be covered by clinic services for their age.
How is such a disappearance, especially without digital traces, in modern times? HS asked the University of Jyväskylä from the Professor of Information System Science From Samuli Pekkola.
« Yes it is possible, but not easy, » Pekkola says.
Pekkola’s expertise area includes, among other things, cyber security. According to him, at least it is difficult for those who use a cellphone to stay hidden. The police may try to locate the person by looking at the location of this phone.
« When you put on your cellphone, it will contact the base station and inform the operator that this cell phone is in the sphere of influence of this base station, » Pekkola says.
Cellphone However, rejection does not prevent location. In addition to the location information on the phone, the location can be located by studying, for example, the use of debit cards and purchase transactions.
« Of course, if you pay in cash, it will not leave traces, » Pekkola says.
However, for the support of themselves and the family, cash must be made. So lifting cash with a debit card is not a good option if you want to stay hidden.
People can also be traced via email. On the other hand, it is possible for a person to register several email addresses under different names.
“However, we have public computers in libraries and other similar ones,” Pekkola points out.
Missing The Ostrobothnian family has seven children born between 2007 and 2021. According to police, the mother of the family was pregnant during the disappearance.
In Finland, clinic visits are provided until the child is six years old. So some of the missing children are clinicians.
However, in the clinic alone, the clinic does not lead to a child protection announcement, for example, because the clinic services are not mandatory in Finland, says the Director of Program and Influence at the Confederation of Child Welfare. Annukka Paasivirta.
« If you do not visit the clinic, the clinic will try to reach again. There is no such automat to make a child protection announcement, » he says.
There is a lot visiting the clinic in Finland.
« Certainly it will pay attention to if there are no clinic visits. »
Stream However, neglect of clinic visits may lead to follow -up if a professional as a result is a concern about the child’s well -being.
« If you have worried about the situation of a parent or family in the clinic in the past, and it will unite to suddenly not happen. »
Paasivirta emphasizes that the amount of concerns that are left out of the clinic is contextual. Sometimes the cause may be very everyday, such as forgetting the visit.
« It may be that there is a lot of concern in the family and clinic visits are the last thing that is in mind. »
