snoop1130 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 A 14 year old girl and her mother are seeking justice after four men involved in the rape of the teenager remain at large despite the brutal incident taking place in April in northern Thailand. Huay Talang Police Station officers have been accused of ignoring the case, while the girl’s school has been charged with hiding the truth from the public. The victim and her mother urged a Facebook page to spread her story in the public domain as the case has not progressed in nearly four months. The victim reportedly attempted to take her own life after the ordeal left her traumatised. The Facebook page revealed that the sexual assault occurred at the house of one rapist in the Isaan province of Nakhon Ratchasima on April 28. The suspects were friends of the victim’s boyfriend, who lived near her house. The Facebook page emphasised that the suspects still lived their normal lives and hung out together near the victim’s house without feeling any guilt. The page added that the older sister of one suspect even threatened to sue the victim for defaming her brother while she revealed the rape to the victim’s classmates. The page accused the school director of trying to conceal the truth from the public to maintain the school’s reputation and pressuring the girl not to reveal the issue to the media. The page stated that the victim and her mother had already moved out of the community and school due to the shame and embarrassment. The page demanded that the relevant departments provide justice to the victim.

Popular Post smedly Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 very hard to prove rape or sexual assault months after no forensic evidence so it ends up her word against theirs this is a very unfortunate incident and a failure by police to act swiftly i really feel for this young girl but unless one of the boys confesses there is little the police can do 4 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that the "16" in the headline is a typo, as there is only mention of a 14 year old girl in the report. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Purdey Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 Presumably the police have a record of the first report. Their negligence alone is worth punishment. The perpetrators must have boasted of their act, so there are witness who can testify. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezzra Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Those neck of the woods parts of Thailand are pretty much a lawless areas where suspects can disappear without trace for months and years even crossing the borders, being a huge area to cover for a spotty police stations placement making it even harder to mete out justice.

Anyone who reads the news articles often published on here is very familiar with the absence of information, inaccuracies and flaws in the reporting...
