webfact Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Pattaya: Thai police arrest eighty year old Brit on sexual assault charges Picture: Daily News Officers from the Department of Special Investigation and Thai immigration arrested an 80 year old British man yesterday on charges of sexual assault against minors. Norman Lunt, 80, was apprehended at house 128/43 Moo 10 Nong Prue, Bang Lamung. His arrest follows representations to the Thai authorities from the UK's National Crime Agency. He is alleged to have committed rape of the daughter of someone close to him on five occasions over a five year period. This involves two separate cases. There are also eleven other counts of alleged sexual misconduct against minors. Authorities in the UK contacted their Thai counterparts after they discovered that the suspect was in Pattaya. He is now in custody.

SammyT Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 1 minute ago, Joe Mcseismic said: If that's the punishment you want, what would you give murders? I would argue in many cases sexual offending against children is probably a more severe crime than murder. It can be perpetrated against the same victim more than once, it can be perpetrated against more than one victim, it is generally calculated, destroys a kids innocence (causing ongoing issues such as self harm, drug abuse etc) and is perpetrated against the most vulnerable in society. I'm not a huge fan of capital punishment for murder, but I am for many repeat kiddy fiddlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, just maybe it is the UK authorities only recently "discovered that the suspect was in Pattaya" and he was only arrested sometime in the past 24 hours?

Rules / laws that should be abolished IMO. 18 years should be the worldwide legal age. If pedofilia could be genetically engineered out of human DNA, the world would be a better place try to be realistic, most woman had sex before 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its nearly always one of those countries involved - Why is that ? Another curse of the rise of the internet ? That's not really a sound statistic is it? what you mean to say is UK and US take action more than other countries and have better law enforcement. I don't think you can conclude because they are more pro-active that they have more pedophiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radar501 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 36 minutes ago, Handsome Gardener said: the UK/US does seem to be the main source of paedophiles I would bet that there are more pedo Thai men on a per capita basis than the UK/US. The main difference would be the under-reporting of crimes in LOS. In Issan villages that sort of mischief is common, but an exchange of baht in favour of the victim's parents and police, and justice is seen to have been served.

Doesn't this suggest the crimes were committed in UK? Pattaya Plod arrested him after information received. They knew where he lived as he has obviously filled in all the required TM docs.

bert bloggs Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Just like men who want to be women ,women who want to be men ,men or women that want to have relationships with members of their own sex , as we kept being told by all of these groups is nature nothing can be done , its the same with pedophiles i reckon ,its in their genes. I just thank my lucky stars i am part of the human race that just fancies women . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't mean that at all (though may well be true) - simply put I meant whenever there is a story of a paedophile at large it seems to be a Brit or American in the story. Whether that's due to better intelligence or simply that those two nations have spawned more paedophiles I don't know. Tim Berners-Lee the inventor of the internet, stated in an interview last year that if he knew what the internet would be used for today, he would have kept his mouth shut.

Look, I know I;m not the smartest guy in the world, but if the UK want him, why not just freeze his UK bank account. Without funds flowing to Thailand from UK, he can't stay in Pattaya and would have to return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
