Hunt goes on for escort Revelle Balmain’s final client

THE chief suspect in the 14-year-old murder of Sydney model and part-time escort Revelle Balmain is no longer in Sydney – with homicide detectives last night launching a search for him.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal NSW homicide detectives, who have been reinvestigating the case quietly for the past year, are seeking to speak to Gavin Owen Samer, who is from a affluent Sydney family.

It is understood Samer, who lived in McNair Ave, Kingsford, in the 1990s, no longer lives in Sydney and attempts are being made to locate him.

It is understood Samer is the only remaining suspect in the case and is still believed to be in Australia.

Samer was Ms Balmain’s last known client as a prostitute on the night she disappeared – Saturday, November 5 – and she attended a house he was living in on McNair Ave.

The 22-year-old’s belongings, including a diary and keys, were later found scattered around streets in Kingsford.

Homicide Detective Superintendent Geoff Beresford announced yesterday that police had new information and forensic test results that were a breakthrough in the unsolved case.
