'We may never know': Germany's 'forest boy' refusing to co-operate
September 28, 2011
Ray mystery ... the boy who claims to have lived in a German wood for five years.
The English-speaking teenager who turned up in Berlin claiming to have lived in a forest for the past five years has refused to make a public appeal.
The boy’s reluctance has frustrated German police who had hoped it could lead to his identity being discovered.
‘‘There is no one to appeal to - all my family are dead,’’ he told the legal guardian appointed on Monday to look after his interests.

Initial investigations by police and Interpol have failed to shed light on the identity of the blond, blue-eyed boy known only as Ray, who claims to remember few details about his life.
The process had stalled while a legal guardian was assigned to the boy because he is under 18 and considered a minor according to German law.
Police had hoped the guardian would allow a photograph to be released of the boy in an appeal for information.
They also hoped that linguistic analysis, DNA sampling or dental records might provide clues to his identity.
However, the boy has so far refused all offers to help him discover his history and have his photograph published. Instead, he wants ‘‘to be left to get on with his life’’.
A spokesman for the police confirmed that a legal guardian, a female social worker, had been appointed by the family court on Monday afternoon, but that the move had so far failed to unlock the investigation.
Thomas Neuendorf, of the Berlin Police, said: ‘‘Unfortunately, it seems the boy told his guardian that he wasn’t interested in discovering who he was.
‘‘The boy said that his father had told him that there were no relatives, save his parents. The boy said that since both parents were dead there was no family to appeal to.’’
Mr Neuendorf added: ‘‘We’ve asked the guardian to speak to the boy again to try to change his mind. At this point, a worldwide public appeal may be the only way we will ever discover who he really is.’’
The boy has told police that he and his father, Ryan, had lived in the forest since the death of his mother, Doreen, in a car crash about five years ago.He said he walked north when his father died in a fall in the woods.
He turned up, two weeks later, at Berlin City Hall on September 5 to ask for help.
Mr Neuendorf added: ‘‘It is frustrating, but if he doesn’t want to help us we have to consider that we may never know who he really is.’’
