Thai Man Arrested for Rape and Infecting Girl with HIV

[webfact]

 

In a deeply distressing case that has shocked Bangkok and the wider community, a man has been arrested for sexually assaulting his step-granddaughter over a span of nearly a decade and infecting her with HIV. The suspect, a 59-year-old known as Nookarn, was taken into custody after evading initial police efforts.

 

The shocking ordeal began when the victim, now 16, was just seven years old. The abuse continued up until recently, unbeknownst to her grandmother, who shared the house. The girl, who only recently realised the gravity of her situation, reported to the police that she lived in fear due to continuous threats from Nookarn, who warned he would lock her in a duck coop or sell her to a brothel if she sought help.

 

The arrest comes after the victim's brave decision to file a complaint with Bang Khen Police Station on April 28. Though Nookarn initially eluded capture, officers from the Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Bureau (IDMB) found him working as a bus driver in Bangkok. After discreetly surveilling him, they arrested him on May 28 in a factory car park in Chachoengsao province.

 

 

Upon arrest, Nookarn admitted to having sex with the victim but denied raping her, attempting to shift the blame to the victim by accusing her of provocation. He also denied giving her HIV, claiming he has never been tested despite his confidence in his health status.

 

Authorities have since revealed that Nookarn has a criminal history, including a prior drug-related conviction for which he served two years behind bars. He now faces serious charges under Sections 276 and 377 of Thailand’s Criminal Law for sexual assault and assault of a minor. If convicted, Nookarn could face multiple decades in prison and significant fines.

 

The case has raised urgent calls for heightened child protection measures and underscores the need for vigilant community and family intervention to prevent such atrocities.

Why bother waiting... just sort the POS out now with a bit of lead behind the ear...

One would think that infecting another with HIV would be even more serious than rape?

 

Does anyone know the charge that applies here in Thailand?

 

A lower piece of <deleted> guy I don't think exists.

This alleged man deserves to be nuttered like a soi dog and imprisoned.
