British and German Nationals Arrested in Thailand for Sexual Abuse of Children
Picture courtesy: Siam Rath In a concerted effort by Thai immigration authorities to tackle serious crimes involving foreigners, two individuals from abroad have been arrested, facing grave accusations of sexual offences against minors. These arrests form part of an intensified crackdown against criminal activities impacting Thailand's reputation as a safe travel destination. The first case involves a 68-year-old German national, Mr. Rudolf, apprehended under a court warrant issued in Pattaya. He is charged with "indecent acts against a child under 13" after allegedly exploiting a young girl from Surat Thani. Authorities report that Rudolf, alongside a Thai accomplice, manipulated the girl's family into allowing her to be his foster child, promising her an education in Chonburi. Upon investigation, police discovered Rudolf's residence contained explicit materials, including photographs and videos of the girl. Initially granted bail, Rudolf absconded and failed to attend subsequent court hearings. After a dedicated manhunt, law enforcement officers finally captured him in an apartment in Bang Lamung, Chonburi, highlighting the extensive cross-agency efforts in place to bring fugitive offenders to justice. The second arrest pertains to 41-year-old British national, Mr. Oliver, who faces charges from a Chonburi court for "abducting a child under 15 for immoral purposes." Allegations suggest that Oliver engaged a minor he met via a dating app, which underscores growing concerns over the misuse of digital platforms for criminal exploits. Picture courtesy: Siam Rath After the alleged crime, Oliver fled Thailand, evading justice for months. However, upon his re-entry into the country, officials swiftly acted on information from their technological surveillance systems, leading to his identification and subsequent arrest at a hotel in Bang Lamung. This case not only spotlights the vulnerabilities associated with online interactions but also Thai authorities' capability to leverage technology in tracking offenders. In addressing these incidents, Major General Chairit Anurith, head of Immigration Division 3, underscored the deep impact such crimes have on victims and Thailand’s international standing. He noted that, with Thailand heavily reliant on tourism, maintaining a positive global image is paramount. The arrests signal a clear message: illegal activities, especially those causing severe harm like child exploitation, will be met with the full force of the law. Chairit further highlighted that these cases have prompted a reaffirmation of vigilance in policing strategies and a commitment to safeguarding vulnerable individuals. The authorities are now emphasising community awareness and caution, particularly regarding interactions on social media and dating apps, to prevent similar occurrences. In light of the high-profile arrests, Thai authorities have urged residents and visitors alike to report suspicious activities, ensuring that the country's commitment to safety remains robust. These actions are part of a broader initiative to not only tackle present challenges but also to establish preventative measures against the backdrop of increasing digital interactions. Ultimately, these arrests represent a broader effort by Thailand to ensure that its streets – and its virtual spaces – uphold a standard of safety and security for everyone, reinforcing the country’s image as a welcoming and secure destination, reported Siam Rath. -- 2025-02-20 -

Trump popularity sinks as Americans quickly sour on economy: poll
Shortest "presidential" honeymoon ever! I put that in quotes because he and his cult don't view him as a regular president. They view him as God King. It'll take a lot more horribleness to lose much of his core cult (about 30 percent) and uh oh they have guns. -

Man Shot Dead by Police After Attacking Village Head with Machete in Nakhon Si Thammarat
Picture from responders. A 57-year-old man was shot dead by police in Thung Song district after attacking a village headman with a machete during a violent rampage on the 19 February. The incident occurred at around midday in Moo 13, Nong Hong subdistrict, where officers from Thung Song Police Station were called to intervene after reports that a man, identified as Mr. Adisak, was attacking people on the street outside his home. According to authorities, Mr. Adisak was in a drug-induced frenzy, wielding a machete and threatening passersby. Village headman Mr. Piya Kaewkhumpai, along with local officials and police, arrived at the scene in an attempt to de-escalate the situation. During negotiations, Mr. Adisak brandished his weapon aggressively and refused to surrender. As officers tried to subdue him using a restraining device, he resisted violently and slashed Mr. Piya’s left arm, causing a severe wound. The injured headman was rushed to Thung Song Hospital in critical condition. With the situation escalating, officers withdrew and attempted to reason with Mr. Adisak, but he continued to charge at them with the machete. As he advanced towards Police Senior Sergeant Major Pitaksan Aranyapruek, the officer, fearing for his life, fired a single shot to the suspect’s torso, killing him. Following the fatal shooting, Thung Song district officials, forensic investigators, prosecutors, and medical examiners arrived at the scene to conduct a formal inquiry. The case will proceed according to legal procedures. Authorities continue to investigate the incident, while the injured village headman remains under medical care. -- 2025-02-20
