Thai couple arrested for child abuse leading to blindness: Mother confesses to be the sole perpetrator

[webfact]

 

Yesterday, police arrested a 30 year old woman, and her husband, 36 years old, in connection with the continued inflicted abuse on a five year old girl leading to her near blindness. Relatives of the girl had appealed for help after realising that her blindness was due to prolonged cruelty.

 

Her biological mother, Kesorn, and stepfather, Atthaphon, lived with the victim. Following an initial complaint from the relatives to the Sri Sawat police in early March, an investigation was initiated.

 

The Sri Sawat police arrested Kesorn and Atthaphon, a tourism employee, while they were working at a rafting site. Both suspects were taken to the Sri Sawat police station, Kanchanaburi for thorough questioning which lasted over three hours.

Kesorn confessed to physically harming the girl, while Atthaphon denied the allegations. Once they had been informed of the charges against them, of causing serious injury by joint assault, Kesorn was taken to the crime scene, reported KhaoSod.

For this kind of people, there is only 1 good deterrent:
Forced working for life in camps and give all they have to the child for medical and physical care.
