In which we learn Araya Soma’s real name, and much more

Several readers have pointed out over the past couple of weeks that our favourite menses-quaffing, Hoaxtead-pushing anti-Semitic fascist, Araya Soma, has been awfully quiet of late.

For those who are new to the Hampstead SRA hoax, Araya was among the first to broadcast the hoax via Facebook, and has continued to do so for the past two years. She was friends with Abraham’s ex-girlfriend, and took it upon herself to spread the word:

She’s renowned among readers of this blog for her fascination with bodily fluids:

And most recently, she has been under a 30-day ban on her Araya Soma Facebook page. For a while she posted using her Araya Manna account…until that one went tits up as well, leaving her to use her lesser-known Ninon Dulac account.

She’s a woman of many names, Araya is, though the face (and the hair draped across the face) remains the same.

Yesterday we discovered yet another of Araya/Ninon’s names. In fact, this one might be her actual, real name, the one she was born with.

It all started with a drugs bust last summer.

We had heard rumblings from our contact in the Glastonbury area that Araya had been arrested for possession of cannabis with intent to sell, but we could find no verification of the charges, so we said nothing at the time. However, yesterday our source noticed an interesting article in SomersetLive, a local Glastonbury newspaper, and passed it on to us:

The bit that caught our source’s eye read,

A fourth co-defendant, Laurence Lavie, 50, of The Archers Way, Glastonbury, charged with the same drugs offences, attended the court but refused to enter the building claiming the court was not properly constituted, and a warrant was issued for her arrest.

Hmm, they thought: didn’t Araya once live with her boyfriend on Archers Way? And that refusal to enter the court because it was “not properly constituted” business sounded an awful lot like the Freeman of the land woo Araya/Ninon and her friends spout.

We thought it was worth taking a bit of a closer look.

A simple Google search took us to Laurence Lavie’s MySpace page, where we found a picture of a woman who could be a younger, less odoriferous Araya. And she does have Araya’s characteristic “anybody seen my hairbrush?” look. Curiously, Laurence’s page may be found at the following link: https://myspace.com/ninondulac

Hmm.

Looking just a bit further, we found that Laurence Lavie had also made a donation on someone’s GoFundMe page:Bingo!

Once we’d confirmed that Laurence Lavie is indeed Araya Soma, Araya Manna, and Ninon Dulac, we started poking around a little further. We discovered, for example, that she and her erstwhile boyfriend (and current co-defendant) Michael Malik, had gone through a “handfasting” ceremony a few years ago:

Sadly, it didn’t seem to take, as the couple split fairly recently. If the SomersetLive article is anything to go by, Mr Malik buggered off to Leeds, and really, who can blame him?

We also discovered that had it not been for an evil doctor who stole Araya/Ninon/Laurence’s special magical all-healing crystal, she might be a wealthy woman now, and would not have had to turn to allegedly running a pot palace in Glastonbury:

This was posted on a discussion group for acolytes of one Major Ed Dames, who claims to teach “remote viewing”, the purported ability to psychically “see” events, sites, or information from a great distance, or across time. So yes, it would appear that Araya…er, Ninon…that is, Laurence has been barmy for a number of years now. Just in case you were wondering.

We’ll leave you with one final screenshot, this time from Ninon Dulac’s Facebook page, which we suspect could be related to certain recent legal events:Not that Araya/Ninon/Laurence is bitter, of course.
