webfact Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Thailand –A British teacher who allegedly took away a minor from her guardians and molested her in Phuket many years ago was arrested in Chiang Mai. The Immigration Bureau told the Phuket Express that this week they arrested Mr. Taylor (alias), 38, a British national in the Mueang Chiang Mai district. The arrest warrant had been issued by the Phuket Provincial Court last month on January 12th. He is being accused of taking away a minor aged more than 15-years-old but not more than 18-years-old from her parents or guardian without proper reason for obscene purposes. He was taken back to the Chalong Police Station in Phuket. The arrest came after a period in 2014 -2015 when Mr. Taylor, who lived in Thailand, worked as a teacher at an international school in Phuket.

Popular Post kenjinuk Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 An incident on two occasions which happened nearly 10 years ago in Thailand. The accused has continued to live in Thailand, has been reporting to Immigration every 90 days for 10 years so not difficult to find him on a computer. I am not sure why it takes 4 officers to arrest him or hold a press conference.. Hardly breaking news. 2 1 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should there be a trial first? And then if there is a guilty verdict, mete out your punishment? it’s sort of the process many civilized countries follow. 5 3 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the police records from Phuket ten years ago were held as paper files. I would guess that Phuket's police records have now been digitised into a central RTP database. So after the first time after that, when he filed his 90 day report in Chiang Mai, it flagged up the Phuket incident. If, as it appears, all Thailand's police records are being scanned into a central database, we can expect a lot more articles like this in future. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is implied that it occurred while he was teaching in those years, and I guess that is what is meant to be the case, but the wording was ambiguous. 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange story In a different newspaper report, it was said that the parents waited until the girl finished her education as they did not want her to be distracted. As you say - strange story. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Callmeishmael Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 There are some more details in the original article. The girl was a foreign student, not Thai. They seem to have slept together on two occasions, with the exact dates specified. After the school and parents found out he was fired. Although the police were notified (later) he was not arrested at that time. One has to wonder what the young woman - now about 25 or 26 - feels about this coming to light now. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotchilli Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The arrest came after a period in 2014 -2015 when Mr. Taylor, who lived in Thailand, worked as a teacher at an international school in Phuket. He allegedly took a 16 year old female foreign student at the same school for obscene purposes to a house in Chalong twice on December 6th, 2014 and in April 2015 at night time. So he continued to live in Thailand and they only just arrested him? Or he was out of Thailand and just returned?? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Quit Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 What some of the moralists here don't seem to get is that the "allegedly" obscene acts are per se not the legal problem here - but not having the consent of her parents to be with her is. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gottfrid Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 It must have been very hard for the police to locate, find and arrest this guy during around 10 years time, as he according to the link and real article has been living in Chiang Mai all the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your point? Why mention that this is the 2nd Brit this month? Are you implying that all Brits are child molesters? You know that there are child molesters of all races and creeds, do you? There are black child molesters. Would you dare imply that all blacks are child molesters? 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
