Picture: Siam Rath

 

Siam Rath reported on the developments in a case of abduction and sexual molestation of a nine year old boy in Surat Thani, southern Thailand. 

 

They had a picture of 39 year old Chainat "Lek" Huangjing from Trang being taken on a reenactment by Bang Sawan police and heavily armed commandos. 

 

The arrested paedophile was in a helmet, face mask and wearing flip-flops and a flak jacket.

 

The case stemmed from Monday when a woman called Siri-amporn went to the police to say that her nine year old son had been taken away by Chainat on a motorcycle. Chainat had been staying with the family and was known to the boy. 

 

Investigatiors discovered that the boy was taken to several locations including a road bridge along route 41 in Wiang Sa district then to Trang where the suspect stayed with relatives. 

 

The boy was found there and taken into protective care.

 

The suspect had dumped the motorcycle at a mechanic's then changed to a motorcycle taxi with the victim. 

 

He has been charged with abducting and molesting a minor under 13 and has reportedly admitted to sexually abusing two boys aged 6 and 9 on at least ten occasions.

Is that the 9 year old boy in the picture---or the 39 year old man----

 

Really dont see the point of these reenactments--- If the person has admitted to the crime given details and signed a statement --admitting it. 

Why go and point to a spot in a field where it took place.,

I think that these re-enactments are to show the public that the Boys In Brown actually do something..

Some people, who say that they have committed a crime, are paid to do so by the real criminals.

The theory is that the re-enactment removes doubt. I stress the word in theory.

A friend of mine was murdered many years ago.

The first re-enactment showed that the person (heavily in debt) was not at the crime scene.

The second re-enactment was with the true murderer.

As per the National Police Office, re-enactments should not be done routinely, in the way they seem to be.

According to the NPO, the suspects should be taken to the crime scene only when their presence is likely to provide additional information – such as to pinpoint where ill-gotten assets have been hidden. 

Crime re-enactments: a violation of suspects' rights?

How exactly do they envisage reenacting the molestation or sexual abuse element of the crime? On an adult? A doll? This is disturbing.

They have used adults and dolls in the past.

What were the police doing all this time, playing UNO ?

They could have made this easier: Now walk to that spot where you did it.

Some noise.

Sorry about that, $^t happens.

Next case.

Just put the guns back in the van and let the public have at it!

Nice for the report to point out he was wearing a mask and flip flops.

Helmet and bullet-proof vest, I understand.
If there's a need to mention his mask and flip flops, why not discuss his t-shirt, shorts and maybe even his underwear!

Is this really necessary?

Common sense says that in most cases such re-enactments provide little benefit. however this may be a legally required stage in the investigation process in thailand, or is something that has culturally evolved.

 

it would be interesting to know why these enactments take place if anyone here knows?

Cut his ⚾???????????? off.

........and heavily armed commandos. 

I always assumed that 'heavily armed' meant those described carried howitzers on their backs. What constitutes 'heavily armed' in reality and in journalistic reporting?

The policeman on the right is about to use the famous RTP 'probe'......

Always remember when our son caught a burgaler in our house he ran away but some weeks later was caught ,our son had to go to the police station to be photographed pointing at him ,still have the clipping from the newspaper

Looks like some kind of bizarre gimp mask party  ????

they certainly get carried away in Thailand .....   one could be forgiven thinking they just caught a Mexican drug lord by the photo

Hopefully he is locked up for good and becomes the jail bitch!
