A FORMER senator who is now a well-known politician showed up at Ban Mo police station in Saraburi late last night to surrender over charges of buying sex services from an underage girl but denied the accusation, Matichon newspaper said Thursday afternoon (Sep. 14).

 

Pol. Maj. Gen. Wichit Bunchinwuthikul, Saraburi provincial police chief, said last Monday (Sep. 11)  he received a report that a 15-year-old girl, 10th grade student, Suay (pseudonym), had been brought to this police station by her Thai father, Mr. A (pseudonym), 37, and her homeroom teacher to prosecute her Myanmar national real mother, Ms. Ma Miao, 37, who worked as a housekeeper at a resort in this province on the charges of forcing her into prostitution.

 

Pol. Maj. Gen. Wichit  said Mr. Bunsong Kerdlam, 58, a former senator and MP candidate for a political party, surrendered at 9 p.m. last night. He denied the charges and used the right of having surrendered to post bail and be temporarily released.

 

Although Suay had identified six men, arrest warrant could only be issued for five of them with the other four, who were previously rounded up, being identified as Mr. Suriya (surname withheld), a hospital worker in this district;  Mr. Phonchai (surname withheld), a contractor in Lopburi; Mr. Decha (surname withheld), 62, former director of National Office of Buddhism in Saraburi and retired civil servant; and Mr. Prasong (surname withheld), 39, a salesman from Nakhon Pathom.
