They were arrested Tuesday in an apartment in Pattaya and charged with molesting children aged under 13, police said, declining to reveal their identities.

Thailand has been trying to clean up its image as a destination for paedophiles, joining in several international police operations to track down suspects hiding out in the kingdom.

In one of the highest-profile cases, a Canadian suspect was arrested last year on charges of posting hundreds of pictures showing him abusing children on the Internet.

He was captured after a global manhunt led by Interpol, and his trial is set to begin in June.
