A man named Daniel Amar Siad presented himself as a model scout, but according to the latest information, he was in fact searching across Europe, including Latvia, for young girls to supply to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein files reveal new facts

In February this year, the US Department of Justice released the so-called Epstein files. These documents provided greater insight into Siad's activities and formed the basis for launching several new investigations.

Siad found dead

This summer, Siad was found dead. According to available information, his death is not reported to have been violent, though further details about the cause and exact location of death remain unknown.

A connection to Latvia

A Latvian model has also been linked to Siad, publicly recalling how she came to meet him. This indicates that his search for girls also touched Latvia and its modelling industry.

The release of the Epstein files and the investigations connected to them continue to uncover new facts about a network that operated for years, seeking out young women for the convicted US sex offender.
