Mom worried by slow probe into rape of daughter

A 30-year-old Thai mother has asked a foundation to intervene in an effort to speed up progress in an investigation into the alleged rape of her 13-year-old daughter by a 16-year old boy last month in a Nakhon Ratchasima school toilet.

 

The mother has petitioned the Pavena Foundation for Children and Women to work with police to speed up progress in the investigation.

 

She and her daughter were brought to the school on Wednesday by local police to identify the rape scene as part of a police report to be submitted for the prosecutor's decision whether to indict the accused boy for “taking away” a minor under 15 for a lewd act and raping a minor under 15.

 

The woman, whose name is being withheld to protect her daughter's identity, has asked the foundation for help. The mother claimed this case had some suspicious points that convinced her that her family might not get justice.

 

The mother said that her Mathayom 1 daughter was raped on June 11 by a Mathayom 3 student at the school’s toilet, but she had learned about the attack only on July 8 after her daughter had become absent-minded and was self-harming.

 

The daughter told her that a female teacher knew about the attack and even gave her two emergency birth control pills to take, but that when the girl took one she developed the side-effects of stomach pain and vaginal bleeding.

 

The mother thus filed a police compliant and presented the remaining pill as evidence, before taking her daughter to a hospital to treat the side-effects and then preventing her from returning to school.

 

After she filed the complaint, the mother said the parents of the accused schoolboy and the school director had tried to clear away the case and had offered Bt40,000 in assistance money but she had refused it.

 

The school then sent a letter issued on July 15 to demand the girl’s return to class, suggesting she had missed school for days without a sound reason and threatened to impose a Bt10,000 fine against the family, said the mother.

 

That was when she decided to also petition with foundation, which was known to have helped many rape victims to get justice.

 

“I want the school director and teacher to take responsibility for having known about the accused boy’s behaviour but didn’t speedily intervene or notify the parents until it led to my daughter’s violation,” she said.

Another apparent attempted disgusting cover up of an alleged female child rape by yet another school director. Wonder what is about school directors ?

the teacher knew and didn't report it to the cops and dispensed potentially harmful meds? wow

[evadgib]

Couldn't they have worded that headline a little more appropriately?

Which is exactly why it continues....

They are low life morons in many of these local schools, uneducated and unsophisticated themselves, they shove their outmoded antiquated and destructive opinions, and so called cultural norms, onto the younger generation.  No wonder Thailand produces so many more like them.

I have heard of the Pavena Foundation for Children and Women a number of times in Thailand..... They seem very helpful in cases like this........ Lets hope they do good and help this girl and get that 'TYPICAL' Thai boy castrated and 'Out of service'..... It is not likely that he would be of any value to the Thai population, as 'so many' young Thai-boys now days........ Thjanks to that teacher for the 'Morning-After' birth control for this girl but 'shame on her' for not leading the capture (and de-nutting) of this young Thai rapist.......

So a kid is raped, a teacher knows of it but fails to report it, and the school head, who also knows of the case and attempted to bribe the family to keep quiet, threatens to fine the family as the kid is absent from school 'without good reason'.
The very people that should be teaching right and wrong and uphold impeccable standards do exactly the opposite. While the police, who were informed of it, do what they usually do - nothing. What a f***** up, morally bankrupt society, but so much part of the culture they are so proud of.

They seem to see their job as "protecting the school's reputation" regardless of at what and whose cost.

 

The influence of the offending boy's parents; the relative positions in society of the boy's and victim's families; will also have to be taken into considerations, especially who they're connected to or not.

 

All very arduous and fraught with dangerous negative possibilities for the school - so, try and buy the victims off and sweep quietly away!

 

The absence of a professional law enforcement system aides this too.

Was 'Slow Probe' really a necessity for the headline? Disgusting.

Don't know who wrote it but I do know it's not first time for these types of double entendre headlines. Totally juvenile and unprofessional and basically an insult to all on this site.

yea it's too bad you can't take the tabloid mentality away from these 'journalists', the feel they're being entertaining because they don't know any better.. disgusting sums it up perfectly..

A wai and 500 baht should do the trick - then all will be well.

What connections do the Teacher? and school Director? have that they are able to cover up a RAPE and then threaten the child's family for her being absent "for no good reason". If my daughter was raped and it was not reported to me until an unlicensed teacher/doctor prescribed dangerous pills to cover up their criminal negligence. Where is this school, Jungle Road 6, Nonkong Nowhere?
