webfact Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Schoolgirl, 9, sent for rehabilitation as two motorcycle taxi drivers arrested on repeated sexual assault charges By SURACHAI PIRAKSA THE NATION BURI RAM: -- A NINE-YEAR-OLD Buri Ram schoolgirl, who allegedly was sexually molested for nearly two years by two motorcycle taxi drivers, was admitted to a rehabilitation programme yesterday. The two suspects, both in their 50s, had been reportedly hired by the grandmother, with whom the girl was staying, to take her to and from school. The enrolment of the child in rehabilitation followed the arrest of the two suspects – Akarawat Chotisinthanawat, 54, and Wanna Jatukul, 55 – in Buri Ram’s Nang Rong district on Saturday on charges of sexually molesting a minor under 15. The third-grader’s teacher had filed a police complaint after finding out about the alleged sexual abuse from the girl. The teacher had noticed that the girl was often absent-minded, suffered from depression and fell behind in her class assignments and homework. An initial investigation found that over the past two years, the suspects allegedly lured the girl to temples and public parks and then forced her to watch pornographic movies before molesting her. While being held in Nang Rong police custody, Wanna reportedly confessed to the crime but Akarawat maintained that he was innocent. Buri Ram Children and Family Home head Yongyuth Wichaitham said a multi-disciplinary team had initially interviewed the schoolgirl and sent her for a physical examination at a hospital. They then sent her temporarily to a home for rehabilitation. Yongyuth said he would ask the multi-disciplinary team to provide the girl with more assistance, adding that would also explore measures that communities could implement to prevent similar cases of child molestation. He urged parents to keep a close watch on their children and not to entrust them to strangers. According to a 2016 study by the Women and Men Progressive Movement Foundation regarding reported sexual attack cases in Thailand, 51.3 per cent of the cases involved rapes and 13.7 per cent attempted rapes. Forty per cent of attacks were committed by people familiar to the victim, 12 per cent were the victim’s relatives and 8.7 per cent were people the victims met via social media. About 26 per cent of sexual assault victims were aged between 11 and 15 and 24 per cent were between 16 and 20.

Dexlowe Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 No punishment is too great for such scum. For sure, the grandmother must take responsibility and be charged with negligence, but these two weasels were entrusted with the care of a child, and in any society a child's safety is paramount.

colinneil Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 The article says the girl is 9, so these 2 scumbags have been molesting the poor girl since she was 7, unbelievable. Put these 2 in a room with 20 mothers for a few minutes, then there would be no need for court/prison, as they would be dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgma Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 i am sure there are a lot of prisoners with children around the same age. But before that i would like to introduce the blame and shame clamp and lock them in for at least 3 days and nights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
over it Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Thailand needs to name them publicly, castrate them publicly, sentence them to 40 years of hard labor and put them on a sexual predators list, for life. Even this won't stop all of these emotionally immature, psychologically damaged sub-human life forms from harming children, but it will start to shift the culture and raise awareness to this type of crime. Anything less and the lawmakers are as guilty as the perpetrators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might there be economic reasons, read survival? I agree, raising by grandparents is not ideal, but raising children by working parents, maybe living on a building project, is not ideal either.

lvr181 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 "...adding that would also explore measures that communities could implement to prevent similar cases of child molestation...." How about a law with draconian penalties as a deterrent? Just for starters. Those men are pedophiles and should be locked away for the rest of their natural lives - never to be released! No 'wais', no hiding in orange robes and no monies paid as an alternative to incarceration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 10 hours ago, NCFC said: Often these grandmothers are too aged or frail to cope with the demands of raising children And in most countries it is the mother and father who bring up their own child. But in Thailand it is the culture for the father to flee the scene or be thrown out of the house for drinking/whoring and the mother is left to fend for herself. Far from being a nation of close-knit families as is painted by those who wear rose-coloured glasses and ignore reality, there are a massive number of single parents who have little or no choice but to rely on grandma.

If they can't afford to have children and/or are in the wrong environment then it might be a good idea to show a sense of responsibility and not have any. It is always the innocent child that suffers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get real. did you notice that many parents in Thailand have two or three jobs between them to make ends meet ? 6.000 B a month, what is not an unusual pay, can only be stretched a little bit. Also, many grandma's here as well as in Europe or Russia and the USofA, gladly take care of the grandchildren while the parents are out working. Nothing wrong with that. What is seriously wrong, is that many men seem to think that they can do what they want with females. Time for some serious suffragettes to arise, with scissors on their banner. (no inciting of violence intended, that goes without saying) Edited September 19, 2017 by KKr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
