Mother behind fake kidnapping: Police swoop to rescue captive kids

[webfact]

 

Police swooped to rescue two children held captive and abused by their mother in a dramatic fake kidnapping scenario. The truth later emerged that the woman had huge debts and concocted the scene to extort money from her ex-husband.

 

On June 28, a Thai man named Mayakee reached out to the public and police for help on social media after sharing two videos of his children being abused by their mother. In the video, the man’s five year old son was forced to drink bathroom cleaning liquid while his 12 year old daughter was beaten up.

 

Mayakee reported the issue to officers at Kotabaru Police Station, revealing to the media that he had four children and divorced his wife a year ago. He and his ex-wife signed a legal document agreeing that he would be the main guardian for the children and that the children would stay with him.

Mayakee explained that he allowed the children to spend some time with their mother on some occasions. However, during their last visit, three of them mysteriously vanished. He did not hear from his children for five days until he received two distressing videos sent by one of his daughters.

So did he not report them missing?

Sick woman should be locked up. Poor kids.

I think the woman has been watching way too many Thai soaps to think this crackpot idea was even close to being a good plan.
