A Thai woman in Chon Buri escaped an attempted rape by pretending to defecate and locking herself inside a bathroom until the suspect fell asleep. The man was arrested on the victim’s bed.

 

The 40 year old victim, Meow, fled her home to seek help from neighbours and reported the attempted rape to officers at Pan Thong Police Station at around 6.30am on Saturday, February 1. She called the police to her home while the suspect, 35 year old Anuwat, was still asleep in her bedroom.

 

Officers rushed to the scene and woke Anuwat to arrest him. He claimed that he could not remember what had happened and claimed that he was confident the victim consented to sex.

 

Meow’s husband arrived home at the same time as the police and was furious at Anuwat. He broke through officers and the crowd to punch Anuwat in the face. This led other locals to attempt to attack the suspect, prompting police to rush him out of the scene.

 

Meow explained that Anuwat had previously flirted with her younger sister, who had brought him home once. However, their relationship did not develop and they later stopped contacting each other.

 

On the day of the incident, Anuwat arrived at Meow’s home at around 4am while she was sleeping alone, as her sister was not home and her husband was on a night shift.

 

 

Quick thinking

 

Anuwat knocked on Meow’s bedroom door and she answered it, thinking it was her sister or husband. She was shocked to see Anuwat, who suddenly pushed her back into the bedroom. He took off his shirt and trousers and covered her mouth.

 

Meow then pretended to agree to sex but excused herself, saying she needed to defecate first.

 

Anuwat agreed to let her go to the bathroom. Meow said she knocked on the bathroom walls and made loud noises to attract the attention of her neighbours but received no response.

 

Anuwat became suspicious of her actions and attempted to break into the bathroom but Meow flushed the toilet to convince him she was actually defecating.

 

She asked him to lie on the bed and wait for her, and once he fell asleep, she escaped to seek help from neighbours.

 

Police have not yet disclosed the legal charges against Anuwat. Based on similar previous cases, he may face two charges including:

 

• Section 365 of the Criminal Law: breaking into another person’s property at night and committing a disruptive act. The penalty is imprisonment of up to five years, a fine of up to 100,000 baht, or both.
• Section 278 of the Criminal Law for sexually assaulting a person aged over 15 through threats or violence. This offence carries a penalty of up to 10 years’ imprisonment, a fine of up to 200,000 baht, or both.

Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?  

Juliet - a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

I misunderstood the headline.  I thought the woman was trying to defecate WHILE the man was trying to rape her, not that she was simply hiding in the bathroom.

 

Some men would pay for such an event (I'm not one of them...)

Because Thais love a reason to be in a lynch mob when they have no knowledge, reason or right to be doing so.

It sounds to me that Meow was cheating on her husband all along, and didn't want to get caught.

Any rapist is stupid, but could one be THIS stupid?

Two quotes from 'Romeo & Juliet' (by William Shakespeare - a Brit who wrote some plays.)  The Romeo in this story fell asleep whilst the Juliet was allegedly creating a stink in the toilet.
