A special operations multidisciplinary team and the Prachachuen Metropolitan Police on September 14, raided a townhouse in the Ngam Wong Wan 32 area of Lak Si District, Bangkok after the parents of a 14-year-old migrant worker filed a complaint with the police that their daughter had been forced into labour and sexually abused.

 

From the search of the building, it was found that Mr. Golf, 34 years old, and his wife, 33 years old, were the owners of the house, which contained 6 migrant workers, some of which were youths. 3 of the workers were girls aged 12, 13 and 14 years olds, and another youth aged 17 years old. The youths have all  now been rescued and place into protective accommodation.

 

 

In addition the search of the house found one unregistered firearm and three BB guns. The couple were arrested and taken to the Prachachuen Metropolitan Police Station for legal proceedings.

 

Mr. Ronnarong Thippasiri, Inspector-General of the Department of Provincial Administration, said that the offenders had opened a restaurant and hired migrant labourers to work, long hours, normally to 04:00 each morning.
 

The offenders threatened and forced the workers and youths to stay at the premises, confiscated their phones to prevent them from contacting outsiders and physically abused them, forcing them to work and sexually abused them.

 

From the initial interrogation at the police station, the perpetrators admitted to hiring the youths to work, but denied sexually abusing the youths as alleged. The police will take the victims for a physical examination and will work with multidisciplinary professionals to further interrogate both the youths and their families.

 

The couple are reported to use have used threats against the youths, using chains to tie up them up and using the guns to threaten to shot them, causing the youths to be too scared to dare to try to escape. It was also found that the husband had a previous history of illegal detention.

 

Initially, the police charged him with forcing underage labour , hiring foreign workers without a permit, coercion, illegal detention, abduction of minors, and possession of firearms and ammunition without permission. As for the charges of assault and human trafficking, the police will further interrogate and file detailed charges before taking him to court on September 16.

Have the suspects dig holes about 6ft deep, push them in, then bury them alive.
