A 17-year-old girl has been arrested for luring an even younger teen into prostitution in Pattaya.

 

Tourist Police deputy chief Pol Maj General Surachate Hakparn told reporters in Bangkok on Tuesday morning that both teens, whose names were withheld due to their age, were arrested along with an Indian male, their alleged customer, Parmod Kumar, at a hotel in Chon Buri’s Bang Lamung district.

 

The 17-year-old given the name “Bee” was found to have invited 14-year-old Ubon Ratchathani resident “Ae” via Facebook to visit Pattaya with several other youths and adults.

 

Bee had allegedly taken Ae to have sex with Kumar in exchange for Bt5,000, of which Bee kept Bt1,000 as a commission.

 

Ae then fled home, but Bee followed her and, claiming Ae had stolen money from her, demanded she return to work in Pattaya to repay the debt.

 

Ae’s family refused and filed a police complaint against Bee for procuring.

 

Investigators at the same time rescued three other girls engaged in prostitution, one of whom was also found to be a victim of human trafficking.

 

Bee faces six charges including human trafficking and procuring girls under 15 for prostitution.

 

Kumar, who maintains his innocence, was charged with taking a girl under 15 from her guardian for lewd acts and raping a minor under 15.

You really need to get over yourself. None of the posts before yours in any way made fun of the victim or the crime. Sheesh!

And it goes on and on ! Thousands similar are unreported. So we can make fun of the fact very little is done to stop this activity !

I wonder if we will be told the outcomes? Bee a small fine and Kumar cooling off  in jail?

They start young here. Pimping at 17, sounds like Hollywood in the 70's

Yes would be the answer to the latter half.

 

The onus of responsibility falls on the adult.  A person under the age of consent, even if they verbally agree to sex, cannot legally do so, because they are too young to be able to - It's know as statutory rape. 

 

So intentionally or not Kumar is the guilty party.  That maybe unfair, but the big picture is the legal protection of minors. In Thailand the age of consent is 18 years old.

15

14 years old? Can Kumar say that he could not see she was a young minor? He beleived that its so easy because of poverty.

Not for paid sex like in this case.

Every man indulging in sex with such young girls are despicable individuals!

Well my neighbour across the road got married again after his wife died and left his 15-year-old daughter and her aunt to stay in the house They opened up a business and boy it was thriving Guys coming left right and center He must have got wind of it and, moved back into the house and threw the aunt out

Yes, I think this story is only in the news because a foreigner was caught.

an indian named Kumar??

that's unusual!

 

Kumar! if you rape a kid under 15, you will be gang raped for the next 15 years!

It's all a puzzle. A girl can bang every guy in her high school twice a week and it's no problem, legally. But if the guy is more than three years older than her, or hands her 1,000b, then there are calls for castration and hanging, plus she's assumed to be ruined for life. (I'm not talking about a girl forced, as in this case.) Maybe they should ban all sex before age 18. That would simplify things. Why do you think they don't? Just asking.

unfair is what was done to that little girl by a pedophile 2-3 times her age who took advantage of this obviously needy or underprivileged  teenager from suburbs pressured to have sex by another criminal who lures young girls for sex on internet.

These two will have plenty of time to think how they screwed up their lives for a few minutes of pleasure and  for a few dollars (metaphorically) while behind bars.

And thats why we contribute to "Destiny Rescue" whenever we can [emoji106]

The Indian man is a pedo and I hope he gets everything coming for him. Thai jails are probably better than Indian jails, anyway let him rot.

So... what was going on with Ae's Mom, Dad, or other guardians as she was jaunting off from Ubon to Pattaya for .....  ????

nah...dunno how old kumar was but its perfectly normal for a 15 yo

to be horny on a 30 yo man.

there is however, none in his right mind that are horny on anyone above 40

I bet the 17 year old, Bee, was not operating alone, and is just a front person for a gang that procure young girls into prostitution and who were the other youths and adults?

 

This sounds like a criminal gang of human traffickers and pimps using young girls to front their operation. Bee, is probably just as much a victim as was the 14 year old girl that has been groomed into it.

Teens that age are free to do what they want with other teens , its when adults get involved and start paying them, engaging in underage prostitution . is when the authorities get involved .

We are talking about laws , nothing to do with anyone "feeling horny".
