Twelve-year-old girl disappears after online chat

Roi Et: – Provincial police have no clue how and why a 12-year-old girl ran away from home after online chatting.


Before her disappearance, the girl was in contact with the man with assumed online name.


After checks, police found the records for 30 men having the same first name and family name as the online identity.


The girl’s father Od Saengrung, 38, filed a complaint alerting police about his daughter disappearance.


He said early this year his daughter received a smartphone as a gift from her aunt, Surisa Sripakdi.


His daughter used the phone for social networking through Facebook and Line applications, he said.


He said he noticed that one man with the online name of Thawatchai Suwannarat was in constant contacts with his daughter for the past three months.


On the morning of her disappearance, his daughter asked a girl in the neighbourhood to ride a bicycle taking her to a local road before taking a songthaew bus into Roi Et town.


She told the songthaew driver that she was going to visit Surisa in Samut Prakan.


In the evening, Od called Surisa and found out that his daughter did not go to see the aunt as claimed.


He and his wife Sukanya tried repeatedly to call their daughter but she turned off her phone.


After missing for more than 24 hours, the father alerted police.


He said he suspected the online man might be involved in the disappearance of his daughter.


Police have asked members of the public to call Roi Et hotline no. 082-312-6681 if they know the girl’s whereabouts.

I am sure that many of us would help locate the girl if we could.

Have you even considered a photo of the girl or at least a description of here so we would know if we did see her?

if this was the USA, I would fear the worst. Since its Thailand--I fear the the Thai equivalent (ending up with a trafficking ring). Hard to keep kids off of social media, but not hard to tell them to never disclose their age.

Again...

I said here before. Now Internet is showing free pornography, even in youtube. Hard core movies that cannot bring nothing positive to children minds, and is a recipe for rape and violence. Free tablets for students, free internet everywhere, internet cafes without age restrictions, no parental control for online browsing, etc, etc...all that it is very negative, not a positive "modernization" of culture.

By my sad own family experience. We parents see our very young children no capable of doing "bad" things, and many times we do not go to "extremes" to create boundaries in its "freedom"....because we believe that we are immune of some kind of risk.

We are not. If you do not check what your underage children are looking online, you are not parenting well in this new "age of information".

The father "noticed" his 12-year-old daughter chatting online for three months to a stranger who "may be involved in her disappearance". Yet there is no mention of him intervening in online relationship which clearly constituted a potential threat to a vulnerable child not yet in her teens.

This would be incredible were it not for the fact that so many Thai parents - who clearly love their offspring just as much as any Westerner - seem to have a blind spot when it comes to ensuring their safety and security. Hence the endless reports of children who drown while swimming unsupervised or who are killed or maimed in road accidents because they are not made to wear a seat belt or crash helmet.

Many of the numerous sexual assaults and abductions of young people which make lurid headlines in Thai newspapers are clearly the tragic consequence of parental neglect, carelessness or naivety.

When the welfare of a child is at stake, being wise after the event is no consolation. One can only pray this particular father's worst nightmare will not materialise, that his daughter will be returned safety - and, above all, that the lessons of this harrowing incident will be taken to heart by every parent in the Kingdom.

Then please check on these men. Put the right cops on that case, trace her facebook account and others. There're many ways leading to Rome.

As some posters have already mentioned, there's no safety for kids. Weird pornographic stuff even on many youtube movies and facebook pages.

Hard to understand that there's hard porn on youtube, right next to some cartoons for kids, without any age restriction.

Not long ago, they showed a photo of the scene of an accident with the rests of the victims still inside, visible for all.

But not showing a photo is poor. They should also show her photo on TV, all over the country.

I hope that they find her soon/

Sigh this is the most despised thing about thailand,get the girl back safely please,i would never allow my 12 year old daughter a smartphone for that simple reason.

We are talking about a 12 year old here. If she does not understand the dangers of social media then you have failed as a parent! Not letting her have a smart phone is like saying: I cannot control my kid and I failed to raise my kid properly.

But then again, I think you don't have kids.

IP tracing ...

I guess they never heard of that one, right ?

My thought exactly, should be not too hard to find the girl's phone or adress of computer the man that met her online was using during chats.

Every single line is traceable.

Well I do have kids, also a daughter actually and she was not allowed to have a smartphone until she was 16.

However, I agree that the girl could have used a laptop or a computer in an internet shop and chat with anyone she liked and still went missing just as well.

Odd case, this one as usually in the Isarn everbody knows everybody and always people sitting outside everywhere, I hope they find her soon and in good health.

I sincerely hope this case turns out well and the girl is safe and sound and we receive good news, but there is something I don't understand.

Surely the guy has a Facebook page and this can be found and linked to an IP address. Also the guy has almost certainly posted photos of himself there.

Also..... how many times have the RTP said that they can "hack" or see Line conversations if they want to. This comment has been used many times after they have arrested people for "political crimes".
