Van Driver Molests Passenger, Gets Punched By Her BF
By Khaosod English



PATTAYA: -- Police are searching for a public van driver who reportedly attempted to rape his passenger, but fled after he was beaten up by her boyfriend.

The police received calls for help at around 01.00 this morning and arrived at minivan 'queue' for DK Van Company on Central Pattaya Road, in Chonburi's Banglamung district, to find a woman, still visibly shaken by the incident, waiting for the officers.

The 18-year old victim told police she boarded the minivan on Bangkok-Pattaya route from Mo Chit Terminal at around 21.00 last night to see her boyfriend in Pattaya. The minivan was legally registered to Transport Co.Ltd., bearing license plate number of 15-1405 BKK.

When all other passengers had left the van, the victim said, the driver coerced her to sit in front seat with him. She described the driver as a Thai male, 20-25 years old.

The driver then allegedly molested the victim and drank beer as he continued to drive the vehicle. Once the van reached Pattaya town center, the victim said, the driver parked at a petrol station and dragged her to the backseat where he attempted to rape her, but the victim reportedly persuaded him to let go, promising to return to him once she had finished her business in Pattaya.

The driver reportedly complied, exchanged his phone number with the victim, and dropped the victim off at mini-van queue on Central Pattaya Road. The victim said she immediately phoned her boyfriend and told him what happened, while the driver waited in his vehicle and drank his beer patiently.

Her boyfriend arrived at the scene a short while later, and proceeded to beat the driver out of rage, causing the driver to bleed profusely and flee the scene.

The police found a can of beer in the vehicle, and said they have contacted the van operators to identify the driver.

Should have gone to the police, if the driver makes a complaint and says he did not touch her you know who the police will believe and the boyfriend will be in trouble.

[likewise]

I'd say : well done boyfriend, I would do exactly the same.

Calling or going to police, euh, where are we ? Police has got no time for such unpaid tasks !

[Pattaya28]

Usual Guff.

Mini-Van drivers seem to have less and less credibility as humans.

I would have been very tempted to take a pair of pliers to his nuts

I feel deeply sorry for your wife or gf if you have one, although probably not..

I can honestly say I would have beat him to death..

Smart girl, promise the driver some honey and call in the cavalry.

The driver still got a beating though. Some solace at least.

That would give you a nice warm cosy feeling that would last you all through your 20 year prison sentence.........Neanderthals probably died out because they couldn't think past a few weeks

They appear to be reacting do they not?

"pair of pliers" coincidentally also is the way Filipinos refer to the 2 people in an airplane cockpit.

Bring back the hanging I say... those cloth dryers are worthless...

[Sydebolle]

As all phone numbers have to be registered it is a walk in the park to identify the slime.

Silly me, this is Thailand. Only aliens need to present all sort of paperwork for a prepaid chip, the local vanies get away with the nice smile.

Maybe vote with your feet and stop using these minivans altogether. I only hear bad things, cheating, attempted rape, speeding, drunk and reckless driving ........... but yes, me fool, I always forget that this is Thailääännnn!

[marcusd]

Does not sound right to,me. She left and came back?. Then swapped numbers?

Marcusd. Via tapatalk

[Jonmarleesco]

Seems to be a pretty stupid would-be rapist.

Marcusd. Via tapatalk

It didn't suggest she came back. They exchanged numbers, then she left.

cloth dryers????..........i'm missing something,you've got me on that one

I have never had to show any paperwork or ID to buy a prepaid sim card. I probably buy ten or so a year.

[tiffanystoyz]

But if boyfriend farang then he will be deported.

"...you know who the police will believe and the boyfriend will be in trouble."

That makes even less sense then the usual Thai Visa/ Hawaii Five-O police analysis.

I'd say : well done boyfriend, I would do exactly the same.

Did you even bother to read the article or look at the picture?

"The police received calls for help at around 01.00 this morning and arrived at minivan 'queue' for DK Van Company on Central Pattaya Road ...."

All you have to do is mention "police" on Thai Visa and the commentators start making ridiculous allegations based on ... hmm ... I guess on other ridiculous allegations they've read on TV or that they've produced in their limited imaginations.

The Thais have daughters too.

I'd guess your thoughts are in a minority across humanity!

[tonypace02]

That can of beer should be enough to destroy the driver's credibility.

[tingtongteesood]

Sad for the girl she had to endure such a nasty experience but good on her for outwitting the idiot, whilst I do not condone violence, there are times when you can only say 'som nam na' - driver deserved what he got, let's hope he is found, fined and fired soon and replaced with someone better.
