snoop1130 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 A 49 year old woman was caught red–handed selling aquatic animals captured from a sanctuary area in Rayong province. The incident took place at around 3pm yesterday at Wat Khod Thim Tharam, in the city of Rayong. The woman, named Aun, was spotted by Suwat, a local temple boy, while she was capturing aquatic animals from the sanctuary. Despite being warned about the consequences, the woman continued with her activities, leading to the matter being reported to the local police. Suphattharapong Boonkamnert, a police investigator in Rayong City, was alerted of the situation. Suwat provided video evidence that showed Aun capturing turtles, frogs and snails from the sanctuary area, opposite the shrine of Luang Por Khao. During the incident, Aun argued that she was not in the wrong as she was not capturing the animals from the temple area, but rather from another side of the river that falls within the sanctuary area. Aun insisted that she had been selling the animals she captured at a local market. She offered to sell the animals she had caught to Suwat at 100 baht for a turtle, 20 baht for a frog, and free snails.
