Same Story As One Previously Closed

[dashan]

Is this the same story as the one immediately closed by TV moderators last week?

(www.thaivisa.com/forum/Child-Abusers-Thailand-Myanm-t250613.html)

It appears to be the same, but with an error in the last name by one or the other of the accounts. Also, check the two photos. Looks like the same guy.

Two men charged with sexual abuse of young girls in their care

Saksit Meesubkwang

Two men, one American and one Thai, were recently arrested and charged with sexual abuse against a number of young hill tribe girls between the ages of 13 and 15. It seems that the two men's abuse of the young girls in their charge may have been continuing unreported for a number of years. The men were questioned and charged at Police Bureau Region 5's Juvenile and Women's Protection Division; a search of the foundation's premises resulted in the seizure of CDs and DVDs which will be used as evidence.

Robert Moss, 55, the proprietor of Hor Fuang Fah, a foundation which supplied accommodation and access to education for hill tribe girls, with premises in Muang and Mae Taeng districts, together with his employee Chailong Siriwong, 49, are, at present, denying the charges. During questioning, Chailong insisted that he had not sexually abused the girls, and that he had loved them as would a father. He refused to comment about Moss's involvement, stating that it was "none of his business".

Prior to the two men's arrest, Somboon Jai-ngarm, the principal of Mae Tang's Sop Perng Wittaya School, had become concerned about the behaviour of a number of young girls from the foundation's Mae Taeng premises who were being educated at the school. The students seemed ill, nervous and depressed, and were often found crying. Suspecting child sexual abuse, Somboon contacted local police, and was finally able to persuade 7 of the girls to talk with police. After the subsequent arrest of their alleged abusers, the victims felt able to tell their full stories.
